hi rushes or mag, could you please send me a saved game, if you have one handy? i,m at the alphonso hotel trying to get the lighter, but the game is too fast for me. thanks, robert.

Hi robert,

There are some saves HERE which you could try, if they are compatible with the English version. I don't have any saves of my own for this one, unfortunately. Perhaps MaG has.

hi rushes, i am shrugging my shoulders! i tried to load the nearest saved game to my problem -in french- but the game returned 'load failed' so i suppose the saved game is incompatible. let's hope mag has one up her sleeve. robert.

Robert,

My saves are not labeled. I sent you 2 that was requested before but I don't know what they are.
See if that will help you or I can send you more later - before or after these 2.

hi mag. thanks very much, but in the meantime, i tried the lighter puzzle again and got the lighter. sorry for all your bother and won't need the saved games this time, robert.


hi again mag. just for fun, i downloaded your 2 saved games and on both, i got the 'load failed' message. i'm glad i solved the lighter puzzle myself. robert.

Which Broken Sword 4 are you playing - The Angel of Death or Secrets of the Ark?

The one I sent you is Angel of Death.

what version are you running as when the game got patched recently you cannot run a saved file from the digital if you are playing the disk version.
I have gog & also disk & the saves files only work on the original exe file.

hi mag. i thought ANGEL OF DEATH and SECRETS OF THE ARK were one in the same except one was for the NA market. i bought my game from just adventure years ago and playing it again. now i don't know. i am doubly confused after reading plumgas's reply. i don't know what to do next. get a patch - for what? robert.

robert,

the patch was for mullticore machines & if you haven't got one the patch is not needed.

the gog save files will not work on your version you need to get them from someone who is playing the same version you are being disk/digital & patched /unpatched exe

Thanks, plumgas.

Robert,
The saved games for the NA and European release are not interchangeable.
Read the game box and see which game you have.

hi mag. my game says secrets of the ark but i am having trouble getting past elvis. are there any right clicks anywhere. the sprinkler just won't go off. do you have a saved game compatible with my version? robert.

Robert,

The saved game is sent.

thank you, mag. it's compatible and away we go! robert.

You're welcome. Have fun.

hi mag. i am having a spot of bother getting the ice quickly to the window before it melts. how do you get the 'mouse wheel run' feature to work? i have heard of such a feature. does it cause the character to run?

Under Options Menu - control preference - mouse wheel run option.
The mouse wheel forward makes the character run; mouse wheel backward returns to walk.

hi mag. i've tried enabling the wheel mouse option and left control button to make george run with the ice, but i am still not fast enough. if you have one, could you please send me a saved game, thanks. robert.

On the way, Robert. Love this game. Have fun.

thanks for the saved game mag. you have probably explained this before, but how again do you unzip the file and load it? robert.

Why don't I send you an unzipped saved game. Be back.

---
It's sent. Have fun.

hi mag. i don't want to be a pain but do you have a saved game after 'the family' leaves. unless i'm not loading the saved game you sent properly, i am still standing on top of the forklift outside the small window - with no ice. robert.

The saved game I sent to you should be after the cutscene already. The "family" left the office now.
Yes - you are still on top of the forklift and have to find a way to get inside the office.

If you opened the sent saved game, you should now ---- Getting to secret office:
Main factory - Go to the hanging pigs in the main factory. Press the control panel left to get the carousel going. eek! See Tony, the one being beaten up behind the shutters. Search Tony to get a keycard.

hi mag. when i press the control panel to get the carousel going, i don't see tony. i presume he's hanging from the carousel but he's not. where is he? i also presume i've loaded the saved game properly. robert.

You're right, he should be hanging on the carousel.

That is my last saved game at the meat packing factory.
Maybe try pressing that control panel of the hanging pigs again.

hi mag. i suspected i wasn't loading the saved game properly - it started with that zipped file, improper unzipping - so i deleted all games and started afresh with email saved game. it worked, thank god - and you. robert.
