The Raven, I need a gamesave

Does anyone have a save for after you pick Legrand's Cabin on the cruise? the puzzle is getting to the point of frustration for me so was wondering if anyone had a save or knew how to bypass it.

I haven't gotten to that point yet. I will see if I can get past it and then I need to figure out how to send a saved game.

Okay, thanks.

Crow,

The saved game is sent. Look for your saved game folder. I sent the info on where Steam places the saved game file.

Thank you Mag, works great and looking forward to playing more with less frustration lol.

I'm with Crow on this one. This puzzle is beyond frustrating! I have all the cylinders pushed up and the door still won't open. If there isn't a way to bypass this puzzle, may I have a saved game, too, please?

Thanks,

gameho

I will send you a saved game in a few minutes, gameho. Look for it shortly.

Thank you so much! I have spent this whole time still working on this puzzle.

You're welcome! That sounds like one tough puzzle.

I'm stuck near the end trying to check the blood sample by clicking the bloody cottom swab on the pipette.

I'm not getting a comment to do so (if there is one) and of course not getting the words "No blood".

Please send me a save game.

Chief

Hi Chief,

Give me a few minutes to check my saves and I'll get one sent off to you.

Thank you.

Chief

You're welcome. Enjoy the cliffhanger!

Hi fellow Boomers,
I just finished Episode 1. I had a hard time solving the "Wire-Iock" puzzle, but after closely copying the pic of the solution in Mag's marvelous walkthrough, I managed to get it right----finally. This game is so remenicent of the Agatha Christie games, which I also enjoyed.
I have been trying to find the location of the savegame folder for this game (which I bought from Amazon, and was activated by STEAM) I have looked in all the places where Steam USUALLY stores it's avegames, but without success. I have WIN XP as my operating system. Maybe someone can give me a "heads up" as to where these savegames are kept. I would very much appreciate it. MEANWHILE, I'm looking forward to Episode 2 which should be released soon.
Sandy

I'm not sure about XP, but for Win 7 Steam stores it at:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\Game Steam number\my Steam number\remote

See if you can find it somewhere along those lines.

Marian could you send me a save for Wire-Iock" puzzle. I haven't come to it yet but just incase. I'm running xp but I don't think it makes any difference.
Thanks,Richard

Sure thing, Richard. Will send it in a few minutes.

Got it Marian. I got the game from GamersGate.
Thanks,Richard

Thanks, Rushes, for the info about where the savegames are located. I finally found out where they are on a WIN XP pc:
C:\Program Files\Steam\userdata\long number\game number\remote. WHEW!
I hope this will help some of our WIN XP players, especially when one has to add a "savegame" supplied by some of our esteemed members (such as yourself).
HAPPY GAMING!
Sandy

Glad you found the folder, Sandy.

Marian that save you sent me didn't work maybe it's because I got the game at GamersGate. I'm playing on win xp. I tried everything to get it to work.
Richard

Richard,

Is the format of the file that was sent to you, the same as the other saved games you have?
Like save###.dsv
If so - it should work as long as the there are no duplicate numbers is in the saved game folder.

Did you renumber both files the same, Richard?

I'll send you my own save. It's the Adventure Shop version. See if that makes any difference.

Did you renumber the two files, Richard?

The save worked perfect Rushes. Thanks also marian. Something to do where I bought the game I guess.
Richard

Glad it's sorted, Richard. And thank you, Rushes.

Great.

Can i have the save file for the lockpick puzzle on the boat too please

Hi Dave, it's on the way.

Thanks for the save ,I cant seem to find where to install it ,i have gone onto documents the raven saved games and the folder is empty ?? which is bizarre as i have 3 saved games and they must be somewhere i cant find anything with steam either. please help if you can im running windows 7

Did you make sure to double-click on the yellow sub-folder inside The Raven folder that's labelled "savegames"? That's where the save files are kept. Where did you download the game from?

Thanks rushes all good now

Great.

Will someone please send me the save after the lock pick.

Many many thanks

I will send you a saved game shortly; this will be a saved game from a Steam download. Hopefully it will work for you.

Ringer2,if the save from Marian doesn't work I have one from GamersGate.

Richard

Thanks, Richard.

Hi Guys

I am stuck on the lock picking bit,just cant seem to get the exact shape, has anyone got a save for just after the lock has been picked please.
Many Thanks in advance

Cheers
SAFC

Hi SAFC, it's on the way.

Hi Rushes

Got it , many thanks, but cant get it to work, got the same problem as Dave58 - My Documents - The Raven - Savegames folder and its empty and I have about 10 saves in the game, and I cant find a savegames folder anywhere else, I have checked all the folders in the Game folder in program file (x86) but no joy, any ideas

Cheers
SAFC

SAFC, where did you buy your game from?
Richard

Hi Kjos

I didnt buy it a friend loaned me the disc, it looks legitimate, as we do lend each each other games on a regular basis, it was just the disc no instruction booklet or anything as it saves on postage

Cheers
SAFC

If your playing it there must be a save somewhere in the programs. Did you put the save in Documents - The Raven - Savegames folder. Did you right click on the save and click on propeties and under general you should unblock. Don't click on the picture.
I didn't think there was a hard copy out.
Richard

The disc has got a printed feather on it and it does look legit, as I said before we do lend each other games, so I didnt think anything different, I have just emailed him and he said he got the game from abroad

cheers
SAFC

My saves are from Steam.
A long shot - Check if you have a Steam program and then check in that folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\#s\#s\remote folder.

Hi Guys
I have searched all the possible folders and I cannot find the savegames folder,I had the same problem with JULIA when I was stuck on that game and I was sent a save for it but I could'nt find the savegames folder for that game either, I have found a video walkthrough on youtube for the lock pick I am going to try that, many thanks for all the help you guys offered

Cheers
SAFC

Hi Guys

Back again, just to let you all know I managed to open the lock, trial and error prevailed, now to complete the game

Cheers
SAFC

Glad you got past that tricky bit.

Hello,
I also need a game save for the pick-lock of legrands room. with instructions on how to instill it to the game. I am also playing from the adventure shop
thank you
kathy

Hi kathy, the save's on the way.

Hi Rushes. Can you possibly send another lock pick save game for an Adventure Shop download? Thanks so much. FJT

I sent one to you FJT.
Richard

I'm so sorry Richard. I haven't asked for a saved game for a long time now, and have since gotten a new email address. I just changed it. Could you kindly resend that save. Thanks so much. FJT

fjt I used the email you have posted but I get a error message.
This is the message I get, A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:


Richard

Thanks for helping, Richard.

FJT - hope you're okay now.

Unfortunately I still did not get the saved game. I went back into my profile and made one more change to my new email address. If you could try just one more time, I would be most appreciative. FJT

Please disregard my previous post. I was finally able to pick the lock. Thank you. FJT

Have fun with the rest of the game.

Thank you MaG. Well I finished Chapter 1. I cannot play Chapter 2, because it doesn't highlight for me--it says it is not available!! Any suggestions? Thanks a lot. FJT

FJT,when you start your game does it have a patch that you can click on.
The patch is chapter 2.
Richard

Thanks, Richard.

FJT, If you got your game from Steam; it will automatically update to include the second chapter.
If you got it from another place, as Richard staed - there should be a patch available that you shoudl download. That is the second chapter.

Hi Richard and Mag. Yes, there was a patch that I loaded even before I started Chapter 1. I got the game from the Adventure Shop. In the new game menu, it shows chapters 2 and 3 but not highlighted and they both say unavailable.

FJT,you might have to delete the game and redownload it again.
Richard

Check to see if there's a new patch, FJT. I downloaded two. The first was a fixer patch, and the second was Chapter 2.

Thank you all. Just before I saw your posts, I did decide to uninstall and then reinstall the game. Then I installed the patch, which installed quite differently than the first time (there was a progress timer present this time). And lo and behold, chapter 2 is now available. So thanks again and off I go!! FJT

Glad you got it to work FJT.
Richard

Glad you're up and running now with Chapter 2!

hi everyone and thanks so much to the mod that let me in to the forum, i had some trouble registering..

Hi margob, to GameBoomers.

A save is on the way to you.

thanks so much rushes

You're welcome. Enjoy the rest of the game.

i nearly freaked out after i got out of legrand's cabin and read "pick the medical room door".
i thought OMG, not again!!!!
i finished the game, but the second part seemed a bit too short or was it too easy?
i enjoyed it though and now can't wait for part 3...
thanks again:)

Glad to see that you finished the 2 chapters.

Hi!

Would anybody be so kind to send me a save file from the end of chapter 1 (doctor, boat,...). ?

I played the first part and deleted all of the files back then :/.

Thank you very much in advance.

Oh, and where do I have to put these files exactly?

Cheers!
