timppu: Seems to me my GMDX saves just somehow became corrupted or something after some point in the Naval Shipyards, or I did something that somehow broke the game scripting or something. Namely, I noticed that while all those more recent saves had also the problem that the game crashes with an error if I reload such save game while I am already playing the game (they load fine from the starting menu screen though), one a bit older save i happened to have just before entering the building which leads to the big ship didn't have that same problem.

(Also I noticed that the crash that would happen after the lower decks door (auto-save point) would happen also if I tried to go back towards the naval shipyards, when I reach a similar auto-save point. So I was kinda stuck between auto-save points.)

I started playing with that old save game, working my way through to the big ship again. I'll be closely watching that my save games don't start doing the same as before, ie. the save game crashes the game if I reload it within the game. So far so good.

All I can say is that besides just keeping recent save games, keep also some older save games around, e.g. one per mission, to which you can go back to if needed.

scientiae: Did you ever get through the naval yard?

scientiae: Cloud save?

timppu: I currently don't use Galaxy, so no cloud saves for me

scientiae: Is it possible to load this mod simultaneously with the Revision mod, or would they need separate disc instances? (I am loathe to do this, however, because this could clobber the Registry flat file entry for Deus Ex.)

FLX83: What works for me is to simply install the game twice in two different directories on the same disk, once with Revison and once with GMDX. Deus Ex seems to be one of the few games where nothing really important gets written to the registry. I think you can even just copy the whole game folder and it will still work.

clarry: Probably late to answer but..

I very much doubt that you were intended to get the items from the training.

As for difficulty.. well, I haven't actually done a 100% playthrough with gmdx but I think it's still pretty easy (coming from another player who's done realistic countless times), especially on medium. I'd turn it up.

MrDarth0: Thanks for your reply!

Yeah, I don't know what happened with those items from the training transferring to the main game. I first played the training just for fun and to see if there are any changes in the GMDX (yes, they are!) and the moment I finished, I clicked on New Game, so I guess the inventory files or something was still loaded and transferred...

I'm bit too far in the game to start again with higher difficulty at this point and sadly you can't change your difficulty once you start a game, but its still fun. The lower difficulty gives me chance to experiment with some stuff at least :)

scientiae: That was a bug in the original game. :)

clarry: Interesting, I've never encountered that even though I've done the training quite a few times.
