Imperial Civil War Tech Support / Re: "Failed to save game. Check available disk space"
« on: May 22, 2014, 11:46:23 AM »
A recurring issue...
I get the same error message from EaW/FoC while trying to save a game (e.g. "Failed to save game. Check available disk space.")
Both current save file and autosave files being deleted in the process.
After some inquiries on numerous forums, it seems the problem occurs on different mods as well as on the original game.
It also occurs with every operating system (XP, Vista, Win7 tested)
Different solutions have been tried (running the game as administrator, changing properties/compatibility modes SP2, changing user names, different save name each time...) : TO NO AVAIL.
So far, it seems that the crash occurs when the size of the .sav file reaches circa 100 MO.
Is the original game coded in such a way that no saves can be made if greater than 100 MO ?
If not, i.e. if it's "only" a bug, is there a solution to fix that ?
Any thoughts...?
