Running v3.7.1.1411. I go to Save, enter Save game name and click Save button. But when I go to Load the save game isn't there. Auto Saves oddly enough work fine.

Anyone else had this issue?

Do you have the game with or without DLCs ?

On the bottom right of the main menu screen there are three icons: Pillars of Eternity, White March Part1 and White March Part 2. So, I take that to mean there are two DLC's installed.

mmm chuta,

I know that users that only had bought the base game were starting to lost access to their saved games because of the last patch (from this summer 2024). But this problem should not be present if you have all the DLCs.

Do you see something if you go directly to your saved directory ?

```
Windows %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Pillars of Eternity\

macOS ~/Library/Application Support/Pillars of Eternity/Saved Games/

Linux $XDG_DATA_HOME/PillarsOfEternity/SavedGames/

Yes, I see a lot of save game files (i.e., *.savegame) and "2.0 Save Games Backup" folder.

mmm I'm comparing what I'm seeing from my side .

Do you see only *_autsave_*.savegame, *_gamecomplete.savegame , *noreturnsave.savegame, and/or .quicksave.savegame files ?

By the way, it is the directory "2.0 Save Games Backup" empty ?

I see *_autosave_* and *.savegame. I do not see *_gamecomplete.savegame or *noreturnsave.savegame

"2.0 Save Games Backup" folder contains some save game files. *autosave.savegame, *quikcsave.savegame and *.savegame.

Not sure here, but let's try to manually moving those files to the parent directory and then loading the game. Let's see if they are visible now.

I was able to fix the problem. Here's what I did:

1) Launch game using GOG Galaxy
2) While game was running delete all save games except the most recent one
3) Exit the game so GOG Galaxy synced my games in the cloud
4) Run the game again, open the one saved game available
5) Played a little bit, then created a new save game with no issues.

Weird, but at least it's fixed.

Thanks again for the time you spent helping me with this!
