Feature Requests / Re: Save file Size Mismatch error

Actually yeah....I was hopping on to report the fact that upon waking up today decided to try "sudo ufoai" for spits and giggles....so yeah that worked....basically the game isn't being given privileges to write it's own save file....well....bit of a nuisance....
...Even more so with Ubuntu....had to take a long road around using "gksu" to run a nautilus window in order to change the permissions on the folder.....but it's done.....thanks for the help though....

Bearing in mind I loaded the game that it saved when I thought I had fixed whatever the issue is....but now all of a sudden it won't save again.

Feature Requests / Save file Size Mismatch error

« on: August 14, 2007, 03:27:08 am »

Hello...I did a search to try and avoid a redundant post but didn't see anything....but here's my issue....when I try to save it tells me Size Mismatch error or something like that....given that I'm running Ubuntu Feisty and am just learning my way around the Debian realm it may be some broken dependency....everything else runs fine....not a whole heck of alot of sound but I hear gunshots and such....runs smooth all is well....except I can't save....anyone know what's going on there?......I installed SDL_ttf after the game install because I didn't realize I didn't have it until  I tried to start up the first time but not sure that would have a whole lot to do with it....
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.....I'm loving the game so far but obviously saving the campaign is a really nice thing to be able to do :wink:
