What a great game! So great, in fact, I didn't want to stop playing when I travelled to my parents' for a couple of days. I transferred the save file (My Documents/atari/...) onto a CD and, after installing the game on this computer, transferred the files to the right location. Sadly, I didn't anticipate the fact that the graphics card/monitor settings are stored in the save file resulting in the game crashing on this computer whenever I attempt to load my save.
Can anyone think of a way to sort this out? I've got quite far and don't want to start again. After briefly looking at the savefile with Notepad it looks like hex or something...

I'm not sure we can help here.... Your save file will obviously still work on the machine that you originally played it on. ;)
On the other hand, there are two of us playing the game here, and almost every scene is played differently.. There seems to be a lot of re-play value in this game. If you do start again, you are bound to find and see different things. :)

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I realised it was a problem with the computer's graphics card (RADEON) - I just downloaded a new driver and it worked.
EDIT: I have a more gaming problem now - the second stealth mission is impossible! :)

Can you describe it, I'm not sure what you mean, or I haven't gotten there get :mefiant:
The latter being more likely, as the people who're paying my wages also seem to expect me to turn up at the office and do work 5 whole days a week... craziness :laugh:
