    Savegame for a desperated player

    Hello guys,

    My whole savegame got messed up due to the black screen error today. i did the "last" willis mission and the second act was finished. i saved while black screen and now i can't access any mission anymore. Does anyone happen to have a savegame just before or after the end of second act? Else i won't be able to play the story anymore...

    thanks

    Remember in the future to do a manually backup of your save, don't just use the cloud feature...i never do!

    Your save is located in UPlay\savegames

    Yes i didn't think of backuping the local savegames before, i actually praid that the could savegame didn't synchronize with the cloud servers but yeah, of course this is the one feature that works perfectly Btw what are the 2 saves in your mentioned path for? there is a difference between "quicksaves" and checkpoints i guess? just out of curiousity.

    Thats strange because I got a grey screen twice before removing the HID human interface devices (except USB) in device manager and had to push the OMG button and close the computer. It started again and left me at the last checkpoint position each time but other than that didn't bugger the game.
