So I did the tests on windows. I made three save files on linux:
- Save file 1, made right before going to sleep (before the nightmare)
- Save file 2, made during the night, in the library, right next to the library exit (after having pressed all the buttons)
- Save file 3, made right after going to the beach (so without items)
I ran these saves on Windows with the same game version.
- Starting from save 1, nothing interesting happened. (however my inventory was back as soon as I left the dream; I didn't need to go sip coffee or go to the beach)
- Starting from save 2, I went through the library exit door and got Error: Could not restore bookmark EQUIPSTATE as it doesn't exist and couldn't continue
- Save 3 didn't give me my items back
I hope this helps !
