Broken Sword: The Shadow Of the Templars Save Games for the ScummVM Version

Provided by Toni-Pekka Ojala


DISCLAIMER:
These save game files are meant for the ScummVM version of Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars.
Something went terribly wrong with this release of the game and therefore
you'll not be able to use the original Broken Sword saves with it. For those
of you who bought the DVD combo of BS 1 & 2, this package should come in handy!

IMPORTANT:
Before you do anything, download and install the latest version of ScummVM (http://www.scummvm.org/).
These saves were created with the updated version of ScummVM; they won't work with the old version
provided on the DVD! You must run the game using the new/updated version of ScummVM. 
It's very easy and simple. You only need to adjust a few things (choose the default save games path and change to full screen mode).

In order to get these saves working, you must open ScummVM first, then start BS1 with it. Using the shortcut that was created during the
installation of Broken Sword will launch the old version of Scumm which does NOT support these saves!!! 

The main reason for creating the
save games using a newer version of ScummVM instead of using the version that came along with the DVD is that for some unknown reason the
old Scumm program wipes all the save games on its own and randomly. If you already have save games in your default directory, 
ScummVM will convert them automatically, so it is not a problem. Just make sure you rename them BEFORE, so they don't get 
overwritten and replaced by these.
