I've been absent from the AGS forums and website for quite some time and on returning now I have trouble adaptapting to the new design. I like that you can quickly and easily sort the game lists by author and rating now, but I really miss the option to see all recently added games with thumbnail screenshots and short description on the same page. It's kind of a hassle to click on each individual link just to check if the game that's hidden behind it might be something that appeals to me.

Am I overlooking something or was that feature removed? Is there still some way to browse new releases the way it was before the site changed? If not, I'd really like to see it return. I mean I can understand if some people prefer their browser not to load all these images on one page, but it should at least be an option for anyone who doesn't mind. I fear quite a few good adventures might get overlooked with the new design because a lot of people can't be bothered to click on all these links just to find the needle in a haystack ...

After some 'experimenting and research' I was able to correctly set up the updated Fragment with the savegame, continue to play and see both endings. Thanks a lot! And thanks for sharing, nice little game. 

Unrelated newbie question: How come that sometimes savegames are stored in the game folder and sometimes they're stored in a "Saved Games" directory in Windows' "User" folder? Is that depending on a setting defined by the designer, on the AGS version, on the operating system or something completely different?

Thanks, Tamanegi!

I had actually seen the bolts and tried to click on them but I guess my mouse cursor missed the exact spot for the "bolt" tag to appear. Now I managed to find it, unscrew the table and push it away, only to realize that I still have no clue how to remove the front of teh food dispensing machine, heh.

Someone should consider writing a walkthrough for this game. I managed to play through parts 1 and 2 without help last year (IIRC), but judging from my own experience and those of others in this thread, TB3 is a lot harder to solve ...

I don't have time right now, but I can also send you a savegame for the exact point where the game crashed later today.

Yeah, that would be awesome, thanks! I also made the mistake of saving in the purply cliff area so my current savegame is borked. 

Ditto, thanks! 

Not sure if this has been answered yet, but I'd appreciate your help, since I'm hopelessly stuck in this game for quite some time now and I'm under the impression I've tried everything there is to try (although obviously I haven't):

How do I unscrew the table? I've read something about a coin, but I already tried to use the food dispenser token on the table and all I get as a reaction is "It apparantly fell off the table once before" etc. etc. Is the "coin" something else than the "token"? If so, where and how do I get the "coin"?

I'm having the exact same problem.

Another thing I've noticed is that when I first got to that new screen, the rightmost platform from the BIOS screen was still there. It vanished after the talk with Arkady, I think, but there's also still a "boolean" tag in the left half of the screen, somewhere in the chasm, even though there's no object anymore.

I really hope this isn't a game-stopper that would require me to re-start and play through the whole thing again ...  :'(
(That's a huge drawback if you only get one savegame slot.)

I just downloaded the demo from the AGS games page. So far I only had a quick glimpse at it (I'm looking forward to playing it though once I find a little time) but what I've seen was amazing, cool idea, awesome design, graphics and cutscenes! For the time being, just a quick bug report:

- In the manual under the heading "Loading and Saving" there's a typo:
"it will ask you, if you want to continue grom that point"

- If you leave the first screen and then try to enter it again, the screen remains black and there's also a chance a save stat message pops up, followed by the question if you want to quit. If you save and quit and then continue from the last save stat, you get the black screen again. IIRC even holding the key for movement to the right didn't get me out of that predicament so I had to quit and restart.

Anyway, thanks for creating and sharing Concurrence, and btw, I liked Abduction, too!
