DescriptionGameVersion: english,ntsc,2 disks
SlaveVersion: 1.0 from 01.01.2023

Not a complaint as it boots.
However, with my current build/installation it's unplayable since any saves appear to only occur within the current session. e.g. You can save a party called spike and reload it and make character modifications with it. I pooled gold and transferred items. But leaving the game through the menus or hitting f10 returns all information back to the original character play disk that was used to install to the hard drive.
If a character and his items aren't saved to the hard drive, it's not viable.
Knowing I'm probably the culprit, I tried various character disks, from different sources, all with the same result. I tried to install without the character disk and whdload installer crashed irrevocably.
I know I have a flakey virtual installation, but my a2000 and a1200 are in storage right now so not easy to check.
Thanks for the good work so far and I'll play it on floppy for a bit.
