If you had your saves on page 0, or in the saveslots 7-10 on any page - they'll no longer show ingame. You need to navigate to your save folder C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\DMD-1469236204 and rename the savefiles.
You have a bunch of files there like 0-0-TL1.save, 1-0-TL1.save and so on. First number is the save page, second is the saveslot. Find your saves, and rename accordingly. Saveslots go up to 6 only.

Or you can load up 0.10 and save on other pages and slots.
Thanks! That did it!

OK, I have the files, but need to come back to this. There are a lot of files in the patch, so this may take a while...

I'll need to create a duplicate install of .10 before I can get started. I need clean files to reference.

Based on the post immediately above mine, I'm pretty sure the changes are in screens.rpy. There may be more elsewhere though, but I won't know until I try a few things.

If anyone else wants to take a crack at figuring out the interface changes, I'm sure the collective wouldn't mind. I certainly wouldn't!

About the corrupted saves... That's normal. Because Mr Dots DELETED something from v10 ending in v11. And you can't load from a part who doesn't exist anymore. God! What's not the first time!

OK, a couple of questions for the collective here.

Question 1:
Are you still able to see all of your previous saves in .10? And will they still work in .10?

Question 2:
A few of you have mentioned corrupted saves. Explain please. What are you seeing?
Question 1: Yes, and yes.

Question 2: It has nothing to do with "corrupted saves", but more so, saves that the game can't trace due to the new save system. Like Kare said, the game's format of reading saves went from Page 1, save slot 1 through 9; Page 2, save slot 1 through 9 - The way the game reads it, "1-1, 1-2, 1-3" ect... where "1" is the page, and the number to its right is the save slot.

To, Page 1, save slot 1 through 6; Page 2, save slot 1 through 6 - The game now no longer reads 7-9, again, like Kane mentioned. So renaming saves like "1-7, 1-8, 1-9" to, "2-1, 2-2, 2-3" makes the game read them again.

In theory this should be an easy fix. But I can't fathom EVERYONE is going to go through this 'hassle', so to speak. Particularly when they can just activate skip mode and get to where they were within 10 minutes.

EDIT: I just realized that the corrupted saves people are referring to, are most likely the end of 0.10 evening. If you check the ending of 0.10 in 0.10 and in 0.11, Mr. Dots definitely changed that part. Like Tito said, you can't load into something that doesn't exist. So this issue, isn't really an issue at all, but more so along the lines of a developmental change. Nothing to fix here really.

In Day 2 or some day early on you have to reject Elena (not allowing D to give her F's number, rejecting her advances, not forgiving her, and etc.)

I appreciate this!

I'd say 'use my mod' but I haven't tested it myself with 0.11 yet. I need to understand what Mr. Dots felt the need to change.

My idea here is, if it's just one file that needs to be 'changed back', to release a 'mod' with just the 'fixed' file (as well as modifying my own mod). Restoring the extra save slots SHOULD be a simple adjustment to the layout (which I plan to try). If it gets significantly deeper than that, it might be beyond my current RenPy skills.

Why Mr. Dots would reduce the number of save slots seems silly to me. You should give the player more options, not less. I get that some designers want to 'make it harder for you', but if that is the case, don't allow saves at all. Otherwise, people are going to save whichever way they can.

You should want people to enjoy playing your game, not have them grumbling under their breath every time you decide to change something that didn't need changing

/rant off

Sorry about that, guys! Just had to vent. I'm back from my errand, and am now looking at this more closely (yay WinMerge!)

@ Pyjak Slayer

Thanks again for the feedback!
