I have been working on this puzzle for 4 days and cannot get it. I'm on junior mode.
Please send me a save.

Okay, so it's not working in my game.
How do I get it to work?
I read the instructions but wordpad won't even recognize it much less let me save it.

Don't open the file. Save it to desktop without opening it, and then move it straight across into your Shadow at Water's Edge game folder, which should be in My Documents. Exit all folders, start up the game as usual, and the save should be there. luck

You mean don't open the zip file?
I did it both ways and it's not working.
The file is in the game folder but the game is not accepting the finished puzzle.

I didn't send you a zipped file, just a plain save file which goes straight into the game folder without opening it. Does it not look the same as the rest of your save files?

No, it doesn't look the same at all. And it downloaded in a zip file.

Sounds as though sending it as it is has messed up the format. I'll re-send it, but zip it first from this end so that it can't corrupt, and hopefully that will solve the problem.

Should I rename it to my last saved game file?
Would that work? It downloaded/unzipped as a bmp file.

Should I unzip this one?

Any the saves you sent me weren't zip. They looked just like the ones I have in the save folder. All worked real good.

I've re-sent it zipped, stonzee. Check your e-mail in a minute or two. Yes, unzip this one.

Click to reveal..
Yes, there is an additional bath.
You see it through a peephole following a puzzle
in the bath Nancy uses.

Ah, that one. If that's the puzzle, EmoGirl, here's a screenshot of how it should look:

It shows as being sent. I'll send it again. Perhaps check your spam folder in case it ended up there.

Thanks so much. It looks like all of the other files now.

But it's still not working. The puzzle is still showing up in the game as unsolved.

Double check that you're loading the correct save, as it's worked ok for other members. It should be titled "5 frame wire puzzle done".

I don't have the option to load it when I load a saved game. It's not showing up as a saved game.

stonzee,

Is this a downloaded game or boxed copy installation?
If download, where did you download?
It might be that the version is different.
