I found the player directory under "/var/lib/games/crossfire/players" it even seems to have made a file for my character. When I go to save (either autosave, or at a bed of reality) I get "Can't open file for save SAVE FAILED!" I have the following deb packages installed "crossfire-server", "crossfire-edit" (both version 0.95.4-2), "crossfire-client", "crossfire-maps", "crossfire-client-gtk", and "crossfire-client-x11" (those 4 are version 0.95.4-1). The save failure occurs in either client (gtk or x11). Attached is a file that list all the files/directories that were installed for the server, client, and client-gtk. Any ideas. Thank you. _______________________________________________________ Are you a Techie? Get Your Free Tech Email Address Now! Many to choose from!
