missing savegame problem

[jcjordan]

Just got game & tooling around & noticed a major problem. My savegame is missing when trying to load it. Last night when I installed game & played around a bit, I then saved the game in addition to the autosave so I saw & had 2 savegames. Tonight when trying trying to load that manual save game it doesn't show anywhere in the list, only the autosave which is a bit earlier than my manual save. I look around my pc & found a file in the C:\Users\username\Saved Games\Pillars of Eternity that fits the time of my manual save but I don't seem to be able to load that file. Thoughts/help???

Run the game as administrator. That fixed it for me.

 

As a side effect, for me at least, this removed the steam overlay.

It is set to run as admin & if it makes a difference, I got it from GOG not Steam

Noticed new save game behavior playing last night - manual saves will totally disappear at some random point during the session. The autosave never seems to have a problem just manual saves & there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the disappearance. I've had times where I had 3 saves from different times all disappear as some point from last save point
