Bug ID: 53715 Summary: Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption fails to overwrite save game Product: Wine-staging Version: 7.17 Hardware: x86-64 URL: https://archive.org/download/VampireTheMasquerade-Rede mption/vampire_demo.exe OS: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: gyebro69@gmail.com CC: erich.e.hoover@gmail.com, leslie_alistair@hotmail.com, z.figura12@gmail.com Distribution: ArchLinux
The game fails to perform a manual save when I select to overwrite an already existing saved game. Saving in a new (empty) slot is working properly. The problem doesn't occur with vanilla Wine.
To reproduce with the demo: Start a new game, you can skip dialogues by pressing <Space>. When you gain control over your party press <Esc> and save the game in an empty slot (saved game is timestamped). Wait for a couple seconds and save the game again using the same slot. No error message is shown, but the previous save is not overwritten.
