Im stuck in photo mode

[KristineGames]

Im stuck in photo mode. I got one picture. I can move the camera around, but i cant end the shot. I have tried all mouse buttons and all keyboard buttons, but it wont end. I dont want to force quit the game because then i loose some progress.
What should i do or try?
EDIT: I ended up force stopping the game. Now the photomode works and shows me the buttons.

Sadly this is also happened to me just now. I decided to end task the game using the task manager and when I came back and click continue my save files were lost and I have to start from the beginning. Anyone know how to restore my save files?

Hey Tokai Teio,

Thanks for getting in touch with us - sorry to hear you've had some issues with your saves.

Can you please copy and paste the following folder directory into your Windows search bar:

• C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Black Salt Games\DREDGE\backup-saves

Then look for dredge-save0.bin.bak_0, or a file named similarly, and move that to the normal saves folder here:

• C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Black Salt Games\Dredge\saves - please make sure that the game is closed when doing so.

Then once you have copied and pasted this into the normal saves folder, please move the original dredge-save0.bin to your desktop if you still have it in there and then rename dredge-save0.bin.bak_0 to dredge-save0.bin.

If when you launch the game following this, it starts loading for a long time, please try and verify your files. To do this:

1. Right-click on the game in your Steam Library
   
2. Choose Properties
   
3. Switch to the Local Files tab and press Verify integrity of game files...

Then attempt to run the game to see if the issue is resolved.

Get back to us when you can and let us know how you get on!

Hey, Thanks for the reply, I just try all the steps above perfectly and then verify game files then launch the game but my file that existed is still the new "day 1" save file. The existing file is still missing. Is there any other way to restore my save files? There is only one save file btw.

Hey Tokai Teio,

Thanks for getting back to us.

Could you please try reading through this Steam thread and try the steps recommended by both devs and other players to see if any of these solutions help?

Unfortunately, if both your backup and normal saves have become corrupted, there isn't a way to restore them past this point and at this stage, we would recommend restarting the game on a new playthrough - we do apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Please do let us know how you get on.
