[SOLVED] Gaming not saving in Croft Manor

[frostdiamond]

**this solution may work for people having trouble saving in the main game (ie not in Croft Manor) as well**

After collecting 6 out of 8 relics in the Croft Manor, I quit the game, only to have found that I had to start all over again as the game didn't save my progress. Frustrated, I began seeking solutions on Google / Steam forum.

I performed the following, and now I'm able to save / load correctly in Croft Manor

1) Remove any and all profile folders in My Documents\Eidos\Tomb Raider Anniversary\, including the Default profile

2) Start the game, create a new profile for yourself


That's it, the game now saves my progress in Croft Manor, as I blitz through variou check point.

I'm yet to see if this solution works in the main game, but will find out in the next few days, as soon as I'm done collecting relics and exploring Croft Manor.

It's a shame we had to manually fix the game so it'd save properly-------you'd think Saving is such a basic function. I guess that's what happens when us PC gamers are putting up with console ports, when the bloody titles are being developed on PCs to start with.

On another note, I'm in the Gym and for the life of me, I cannot get one of the relics. It's on the Northwest wall, when standing at the entrance of the gym. This is the one where Lara has to wall run (while grappling), then jump away from the wall, onto a slope, then onto another slop, to catch a bar (then swing into the alcove with the relic).

I have no issues with wall jumping, but the bloody camera angle makes it exceptionally hard to know at what point to jump-------jump too late and I end up grabbing the adjacent wall; jump too early and I end up missing the slope.

I must have attempted this sequence like 20+ times last times. Then I said ♥♥♥♥ it, I'm going to bed LOL

This fix doesn't fully work. It is an improvement in that it does save the occaisional check point, but in the manor I have lost a fair bit of time as it hadn't saved for around 1 hour. :(

It's a shame as this would be a good game if the saves actually worked.

I'm using Windows 10 - not sure if that has any bearing on things....
