Thanks! I can't see it very well but it looks like the file name is what's causing the issue. Saves should end in .save with backup versions ending in ver.1 and upwards. Try with just one save file in the saves folder and see if it will load, try one labelled Slot_00000001.save or Slot_00000002.save or similar.

Tried that. The file wont change to a different ending. I even tried changing the file name. My screenshot wont work, but when I click on the file it says this:

You shouldn't be trying to open the saves. Could you maybe post a clearer screenshot so I can see them better?Everytime I try to post a screenshot it just blows the photo way up. But I have the link below that shows what the exec files look like. If the link doesn't work just search exec file on google images🙂

Thanks. I know what those files look like, I wanted to see a clearer image of YOUR save file 🙂 Is that the file that's loading? What is the exact location of that file? click it once to select it then hold down the CMD key and press the i key. In the window under the general section please copy and paste the full file path next to Where (you can edit out your username).
