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!

I don't think he did this to increase difficulty, because this U.I change does nothing to impact difficulty. Instead of an infinite number of save pages multiplied by 9. It's just an infinite of number of save pages multiplied by 6. Not much difference other then a layout change.

Another thing, instead of one-click saving like in 0.10 and before, now you have to click and then press enter to get rid of the "enter description" box. So if you could get rid of said box and change it back to one-click and done, that would be great!

OK, I'm seeing a number of changes in screens.rpy. I'm about to try something simple...

Yep, my mod will put things back to the way they were... but won't let you into the game. Looking into that now (there's another change somewhere that I have to track down).

How is the new interface better? The other one was so much cleaner...

Edit: So my mod works fine with .11, but saves at the end of day 10 are broken, hence this comment. See post below for update.
