moving the game from one machine to another
« on: June 26, 2013, 08:22:33 PM »

playing already for many months this awesome game with some mods. Bought a laptop recently, which is so much more silent, and installed, copied the mods and the save files on it, but it seems i can't continue from my previous save. Moved from Vista x32 to W8 x64. Can't i continue or did i overlook something? The right mods are selected at the startup

thx in advance

Silly question, but have you tried using "load game" rather than "continue"?
