Save file location and individual save deletion?

[Joe]

I found where the game saves are located Windows %appdata% TRX 76561198097771570
But what i found unusual is. There is only one file in there from my Tomb Raider 1 save, when two save files appear in the game. Is there no-way to manual delete a save file i created in the game by accident?

Thanks

If I'm not mistaken, all the saves are contained in that single file.

Please don't tell me these three games don't have a deletion feature and act like Prema Saves. I don't like Prema Saves.

However does the delete key work or is that just a useless key that only DOS works and nothing else does?

so theres no real way to delete saves unless you rewrite them?

they really need to patch this.

Seeing all save files merged into 1 file is quite dissapointing (if file is corrupt all saves will be gone for all 3 games), as well as merge of save files with binary encoded settings that you cant manually edit.

I wish patch to restore old save per file scheme and also to store all game settings in form of easily editable text file. But to keep current saves intact some one time procedure of conversion of old single file to new mulit file format would need to be performed.

There's quite a few things missing or need changing right now, i bet they removed some things so they could tweak them a bit, or maybe there's some reason they're adding them separately. There's a few old bugs right now so maybe that's why.

The numbers on my keyboard weren't working the other day pressing them to change weapons, and then suddenly it was the next day. It was the same for modern controls i couldn't even get a flip out of it and then the day after i suddenly had full functionality. So i've no doubt we'll be able to delete saves soon enough.

I found a way to remove an individual save from the game through the Hex editor "HxD". Open the savegame.dat file through hex editor, you will have the save data in the hexadecimal system, scroll through until you see a line with an exclamation mark, and under it letters in a row with the Russian letter "и" (at least that's how it is displayed for me), and this line is the beginning the code of one of the saves, and you will need to find the end of this code, I have it ending in the Russian "я", and you need to fill in this entire segment with zeros "00" and click save.

There is talk of a third patch. Maybe that could fix it, but ugh....starting all over yet again...
