Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) General Increasing no of auto saves

I saw somewhere that you could increase the number of autosaves so that if one went bad everything was not lost
any ideas?

I didn't know there is an autosave. Should really start reading the manual. Anyway I wouldn't like autosaves too much, since it takes a lot of time to save. I usually save after a heavy fight or after about 15 minor fights

Do you mean quick saves? If so...

Download the patch, then increase the number of quicksave slots like this:

Quicksaves now alternate between 1 and the MaxQuickSaveAmount setting in config.lcl which by default is at 2 but which can be increased to any number if you want a number of sequential quicksaves. To increase the setting – open the file config.lcl in the folder where you installed Divine Divinity, and add the line MaxQuickSaveAmount # with # being the maximum amount of quicksaves you want.

Don't forget to press return after typing the new line, or it won't work

If you really mean autosaves, sorry - no idea

and just how do you read .lcl files?

You can open them in Notepad, or any other text editor. Even if you are just making simple changes, it is good practice to make a copy of the file first.

Thanks raze needed that.they say you learn something new everyday and they weren't kidding. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
