Are old save files compatible with Enhanced Edition?

Or do we have to start a new save? Anyone know. I'm nearing the end of Act 2, if that matters.

Could you look into the issue in this thread?

It seems to be an issue when loading a save game from pre-EE. Also, loading autosaves from the beginning of chapters results in a fog covering everything but the characters similar to what happens if you force AA, though it goes away if you go back and play the autosave before that.

We already know that save games from the third act are NOT comaptible. Because of the large amount of changes in The Enhanced Edition we cannot guarantee that the saves from the previuos acts will work. Our recomendation is starting a new game.

Sorry about that, yes Masos is right. You can try, but we can't guarantee that it will work.

I got the new side-quest on Iorveth's path, but I loaded a save just before the end of Act 2. So that works. Not sure if loading an early Act 3 save works, though.

(and this save I loaded is pretty ancient, from version 1.2 I think)

Could you put this on a FAQ or something?

REDorigen in another thread explained that it is recommended to restart the game from 0 becoz of the many changes added since the Prologue.
