Linux Mint 17.3 MATE 64-bit.

I've been testing from a character I'm loading from classic. I made a modern save file with it. If I try to load my modern save file at boot, it doesn't appear. I have to load the classic save file first, and then if I go to the load screen, the modern save file will appear, but not sooner.

I think the loader is pointing at an inexistent save profile; it's asking for "Nameless," but it doesn't give me an option to change the character. My character, "Test," has to be selected by first loading a classic save file. I don't think this is intended behavior, right? I took screenshots here.

Cheers. Fix for this is in latest code and will be in next build. I might update builds soon actually just to get this fix out.

Edit: Builds up now. 09-Aug-16 or later have this fix, should work a lot better now.

I can confirm the same behavior here, with the following configuration:

Sweet -- getting it now

Yep, Linux #23 has the Switch Char button implemented and working, so this one's resolved. Thank you.

Looks like the issue is resolved for my profile as well.
