ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I am sharing my workaround in the event it can help someone in the near-term. This prevents the game from immediately crashing when you have an issue with save files on Windows. When this code works you will need to find your save file and rename it manually from game.teag.tmp to game.teag. No guara...

I have ruled out the online features, part of my testing was done using the download from the forum and I did not sign in. I do not think there is any other process interfering with the save file. My AV is disabled and I am not syncing the files anywhere. In fact my first short term fix for the prob...

The rename fails because Windows says `game.teag.tmp` is open in Tales of MajEyal. When the game is unable to rename the file I was also unable to rename the file manually. Closing the game allowed me to rename the file.

The root cause of this is rather mundane. There is a flaw in the logic of the save process that if the rename of the temp save `game.teag.tmp` to `game.teag` in the C code it is just treated as if it succeeded. It then reports back to the LUA code that the save worked. The LUA code will then attempt...

Thanks. I had browsed through that thread before. I had tried to drop the tmp from my broken save and thinking back I did see some lua errors when that file failed to load. Perhaps that save could be fixed but I was playing on Roguelike and not that concerned about fixing the save file. I am more in...

Most recently my game crashed when entering Derth for the first time. I entered the zone and the loading progress bar got to 100% and then just stayed there until ...
