Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta Saving the game doesn't work.

It always crashes or saves forever,unless I alt+f4.

Do you have a 32 bit version of Windows? If so, try shutting down all non-essential programs (especially anti-virus) before starting the game, to free up as much memory as possible.

Try browsing to the '..\Documents\Larian Studios' folder and renaming the 'Divinity Original Sin' subfolder.
This folder contains the saved games, configuration files and a level cache folder. Deleting or renaming it will get the game to recreate it on startup; playing the game from a different Windows user account would effectively do the same thing.


Please email supportdos@larian.com, with a description of the problem and the report.zip file generated by the D:OS support tool.

I have 32 bit version of win 7,tried disabling programs nothing. Renaming the folder fixed it temporarily,could save about 3-4 times,then kept crashing,and I managed to load 1-2 times as well,now it just crashes,and rarely gets stuck in "saving mode" I'll email them now,thank you.

the report tool doesn't work,gets stuck forever loading after displaying error getting directx info

i had a similar issue. try to verify your file cache by the steam client*. i had to do it twice but everything was well again afterwards.

*
1) right click on DO:S in your game library
2) click on properties
3) go to the local files tab
4) click verify integrity of game cache
5) prepare to wait some time while it checks (a few minutes).

Send a dxdiag report; that will contain most of the system info that may be useful. Click Start, Run, type in dxdiag and hit Enter; when that finish loading click on the Save All Information button and save to the desktop (or somewhere handy to attach to an email).

ok,I attached the dxdiag,thanks for the help.

Will also try 4verse's suggestion,just in case.

4verse's suggestion didn't work,I guess I'll wait to hear from support,thanks again.

support suggested reinstalling the graphic drivers,did it,now saving & loading works,thanks again!

And same thing again,out of beta and I can't save,it just crashes when saving (or to be more exact when loading the gameworld again after saving,usually on instantiating or waiting for sync)

Saving works on the cow simulator mod though.. So that's "something"..

Here's the thread I made on steam: http://steamcommunity.com/app/230230/discussions/2/522730702058801769/

Are you doing overwrite? because sometimes save only works if you do a new one each time. Good luck!

using quicksave,I just tried making new save,same thing: saves,then starts reloading the world,sound gets chopped for a second,then it comes back and game crashes after it.

Also for some reason I have no intro in my game,I thought they removed it from release for some reason,but I guess it's a problem with the game.
