Hi, using v0.4.4 7641, Windows 8.1, 1st time i play, when i tried to save before leaving, noticed several things:
1: I can't save game. It sais there is some kind of error
2: When i try to change savegame directory, i delete former, and try to rewrite the route, i find i can't type the "\" symbol, so im quite doomed then. Even designing c: as savegame path doesn't work.
3: Then i uninstall and reinstall and i find that the savegame route hasn't changed; itkeeps record of the previous path (c:) it had before nistalling. I don't know how to reset that.
4: Moreover, i find that now the Resource Files path is empty too and i don't know where Resource Files should be. When try to play again i can't, a message shows saying "Timed out while trying to connect to server"
Can't neither save games nor change savegame directory

Re: Can't neither save games nor change savegame directory
I don't have any such issue on Windows 7, and don't recall any reports of issues of this sort... typing \ works for me in the options screen directory listings, and in the directory select dialog. If you can't type, try the directory select dialog (the ... button).juvilado wrote:2: When i try to change savegame directory, i delete former, and try to rewrite the route, i find i can't type the "\" symbol, so im quite doomed then.

Try deleting the contents of C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\FreeOrionjuvilado wrote:3: Then i uninstall and reinstall and i find that the savegame route hasn't changed; itkeeps record of the previous path (c:) it had before nistalling. I don't know how to reset that.
The resource directory is normally FreeOrion/default where FreeOrion is whatever path you have FreeOrion installed to, like C:\Program Files\FreeOrion\default4: Moreover, i find that now the Resource Files path is empty too and i don't know where Resource Files should be.
