joe, you're almost there. however, you have to take in mind that this is a real old game and the savegames kind of suck. it sequentially starts checking all the files with file name "savegame" and in case it has wrong format/extension, it stops there. and the savegame with extension 002 is the one who you can not have there, it's from another version of the game/some savegame for vdmsound. you need to download and unzip all the savegames from that monkey island fan website (they have extensions _A_, _B_, etc) and then place them in that directory that's on the screenshot. and delete/move any other file that starts with savegame, for you this means removing/moving savegame.002 then it will work |

OK I'm going to try this one last time. I extracted the savegames... 1 is the savegame I created when I saved a game in F5. it appears in the load game list in dosbox. 2 is one of the savegames I downloaded and dragged into the folder 3 is a savegame I dragged in and then renamed to make it look like number 1 but when I move the monkey.exe symbol into dosbox and the game starts, only number 1 is there in the load list.

You remembered to unpack them, correct? Check what filenames the savegames you downloaded have, and check what filenames does the game give new savegame files it creates. Then try renaming the downloaded savegames accordingly. |

no, I put all the new savegames that I downloaded from worldofmi.com in there. none of them come up on the load game list when I press F5. I give up

THE NEW SAVES YOU DOWNLOADED FROM THE WEBSITE I LINKED YOU TO. THE FILES THAT YOU TRIED TO DRAG TO THE EXE. READ THIS TOPIC AGAIN :wallbash:
