Hey there. I was playing this beautiful game on VICE 3.5 and I used to save to cart all the time, never quitting the emulator.

Today I had to restart Windows, I quit cleanly but, upon restart, there wasn't any save game on the cart slot.

I lost 8 hours of progress, I had just met/saved Alyssa and was going to search for her grimoire. Any chance that anybody has got a save game file I can use to get back to that point, more or less? If so, please contact me. Thanks in advance. Mick

I recently experienced something similar on a real Easyflash cartridge. The game did report that the save did fail, when trying again, the game did crash. Luckily I made a backup on floppy, but still, a few hours of gameplay are lost.

Haven't you possibly got a save game to share? I don't even know in which format.

I have uploaded my savegame here: http://www.freepascal.org/~daniel/brileysave.zip

Brilliant! I don't know how to thank you. You better choose the material for the statue I''ll build in your honour :P

By the way, you should upgrade to Vice 3.6 which was released on xmas 2021.

And release notes: https://vice-emu.sourceforge.io/NEWS

I played and finish the game on Vice 3.6. It could help for cartridge management.

Noted, and done. Thank you very much. The snapshot function seems to work better now as well.

It is working better indeed. Just look at all the features added or made better during 3.6 development time. You'll be surprised :D

Congratulations to the VICE team then :)
