Changes: Save Game

Revision as of 23:37, 3 April 2013

The game offers three game slots (previous beta versions had only one) and the game auto-saves to the current slot every time a location light source (at a hut, tent, camp fire or urn ) is lit, or you sleep in a bed. These are the only methods of saving the game, the game doesn't support 'quick' saves, which enhances suspense and feelings of deprivation common to this kind of game.

Save Game Location

If you need to back up or retrieve your save game files, they are saved in

%APPDATA%\IonFx\Miasmata

Copy-paste this into Start-Run to open an Explorer window at this location

If you prefer to use an existing Explorer, these are the default system locations:

Operating System	Location
Windows XP	Drive:\Documents and Settings\YourName\LocalSettings\Application Data\IonFx\Miasmata
Windows Vista and later	Drive:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\IonFx\Miasmata

This is a system location, so you will need to make System and Hidden files visible.
