Classic Save Load issues

Post by jimfcarroll »

I have 2 questions related to loading classic saves.

First, is there a plan to load the quest progress from the classic save file?

Secondly, I have a character with Lycanthrope and several stats now above 100 since, in the original game, taking levels after contracting lycanthrope allows the affected attributes to go above 100. When I load that save into Daggerfall Unity they're truncated. Is this intentional?

Thanks
Jim

You can restart main quest from roughly where you're up to using information in this post. I will make this automatic at some point, and possibly add some granular options to dial in your restart point.

Classic Daggerfall attributes only go to 100. The exception to this is when you have the DagSkills hack installed, then you can raise these to 200. DagSkills is included with some distributions like DaggerfallSetup.

Thanks. I must have the hack installed since I had all of the fixes/patches/etc installed with DaggerfallSetup.

Is there a preferred place to report bugs? Issues on Github? I have a save file with what appears to be an incompletable quest.

Github is probably the best, but Bug Reports will be seen here in the forums as well. :)
