I am having trouble saving games in EU2 1.01. I did not notice having this problem in EU2 1.00, but I am not certain.
Specifically, I am playing the GC as either Eire or Toltecs with autosave on (every year), and saving manually about every 5 years. Early in the GC, up to about 1430, the saved games seem fine and load properly. After that, though, manually saved games are written to disk as empty files or as incomplete files. The autosave games never seem to be empty, but they are incomplete. When I look at the incomplete files in a text editor, it looks like some chunk of data is simply truncated at the end of the file. For example, there will be a series of line with quoted text where the last line has a begin quotation mark, some text, and then nothing - sometimes with the last word being cut off in the middle.
My setup is
PIII/500 with Win2K Professional
