thanks you for the advice, yeah, i tried loading form both the main menu screen start up and the short cut and still no map, also this is my first time playing the game a i have heard so many good things about it and was hoeing to enjoy it in its entirety but i'll just use the cookie jar option you suggested i guess.
oh wow, i just realized even my first save's the map is messed up on now too, after the bug started it seems to be messing up all the saves maps.
a full restart seems to be the only fix for all the problems
edit: i take that back, the cookie jar load option is broken too, it doesn't work either, i click on it and it ask for name and the i enter them and hit OK and nothing Happens the name window just stays there and i have to click the X close option to close it out.
where on the PC locally are the save located? i need to delete them and the game and start the game over fresh or something, the old saves seem to error the game out in quite a few way.
i'm gonna go ahead and guess the saves are in a temp app data local folder, just don't know what one it is though. i got a lot of games and programs installed
