    • Save problem


      Whenever I try to save in any coldstone based game it doesn't save at all. It comes up with the dialog box and I name the save file but it doesn't work. It doesn't work for PoG or any game I am making and testing with coldstone. I am using OSX and right now a unregisterd version of Coldstone and PoG but it doesn't explain it. I have another computer with PoG on it and it can save fine but that is running OS9 or possibly 8. What is going wrong??

    • The infamous, evil, still unfixed (Beenox has known about this for ages) saving in OS X bug. The only current solution to the problem is to make a text file (or a folder, or anything) and rename it savename.pog (or whatever your game's save extension is). Then save over it and it will let you replace it. As of yet there is still no permanent fix (coughBeenoxabandoneduscough), so we have to use this workaround. I don't know the details of why, though I think it has to do with how coldstone was programmed and how OS X's file system navigates the directories.

      By the way, welcome to the Coldstone boards, hope you have a good time here!
