"Saving to the C:\ Drive"
I was wondering if it was possible to save games to drives other than the floppy drive.

Yes. If your scenario drive is c:\bane then just use the name of the game NOT the Drive name ie: savegame will save to C:\bane\savegame.sav

The interesting thing is that if you don't use eight letters for your gave, the program will prepend from savegame to make your save game name 8 letters long.

Thanks for the suggestion but when I try this, the message "insert savegame disk into drive C" appears and nothing happens when I press return.

Did you try to include the drive letter?

It will not work that way. Use only the name of the game you want to save and it should work.

to save to the c:\ drive, all you need to do is enter in the name of the save game file. do NOT type in A:\, do NOT type in C:\BANE\SAVEGAME.DBS, do NOT type in SAVEGAME.DBS. only type in SAVEGAME. (or DROPCROS, whatever).

i just did it, so i know it works
