Whenever I try and create a character it says "unexpected error during save: 3hali" I've tried everything I know to do, anyone know how to help? :help:

The problem is that the cfg-file cannot find the save directory. Make sure, that the programm und the cfg-file fit together. If you use the DOS-Box, be sure to think of the directory where your game is an a kind of root.

I tried everything these guys told me to do, nothing worked. The only thing that seemed to help for me was using dosbox if I mount the whole c drive (says not reccomended) like..

mount c c:\

then go to your game manually and it works!

Good oldie. I allready have the entire gold box collection though (+hillsfar) and many of the novels too. To get the max out of the entire series I suggest reading the books while playing the games (i.e Pool of radiance & the novel of the same name). The krynn series seriously req you to read the dragon series of books. They were one of my favorites. Soulforge or somthing was the first (raistlin in the mage academy).

Currently I have played though Pool of radiance and hillsfar. My chars have been stuck in the curse for quite somtime. Gotta bail them out sooner or later.

(Last spring I also bought the entire baldur's gate & icewind dale collection. Gotta play the gold box through first though. )

These old games are picky about where you put them in the directory. Make sure your COK folder is under your main directory C:\COK. The save error should resolve. k:

Sounds like the game configuration file is not right. The directory into which the game saves the character files is not correct in the cfg-file.

All you need to do is edit the .cfg file (or whatever the configuration file is) with notepad. Make sure the drive letter and game directore are correct.

Thanks, Zak. Editing the.cfg file worked for me.
Notepad to the rescue!
