What do I do after I dl TW1 import to TW2

[Corylea.723]

What I DL was called 7z920.msi problem is after I did all the installing stuff it doesnt show up under other programs in which to choose to open

See the post right above yours, where I tell you to Browse. READ, damn it!

When you save a file that you're downloading, you get a pop-up that asks you where to save the file to. Download and save another file, and you can read from that pop-up where your default place is for downloads to save to.

When i click the windows button at the bottom and it says 7zip file manager so I know its there just cant find it although Im using google chrome which may or may not make a difference but im just letting you know

 

[Typo115]

All I can do is find the the 7zip installer package under Dl but other than that I cant find it

 

[Typo115]

It's not under the browse thing you showed me. I can only find it under the windows icon lit up which says 7zip file manager

Im SORRY but I cant Find 7zip can you do it then post a link already un rar and all I have to do is move it to my TW save folder. That might save us both the frustration

 

[Typo115]

I also cant find the file through 7zip either so I'm completely out of options

..... Can anyone help?

Be patient! It takes awhile to upload a file this size! Geeze, you want instant results when I'm bending over backwards to help you.

You have no Idea how much I appreciate this but I thought you gave up but no I know

 

[Typo115]

Dang this is taking me 1hr to DL this. Just hope its the right thing but beleive me I do appreicate this just dont the best at showing it. But aside from that werent you the one that made Med problems 1&2?

 

[Typo115]

well look at that it went from 1hr to 7mins

 

[Corylea.723]

Just hope its the right thing

Yes, it's the right thing. It's the saved game file you downloaded, just unrared.

I guess you don't MEAN to be insulting...

But aside from that werent you the one that made Med problems 1&2?

Yes, that's me. Did you play those?

(Sorry, I see Corylea already solved it for you. I'll leave this posted, in the hope that it will help somebody else who isn't familiar with 7-Zip.)

7-Zip is a kind of program called a "power toy". It doesn't register file types or give itself a Start menu entry, so you can't double-click an archive and get 7-Zip to open it, or even launch the program from the Start menu. You launch it from a context (right-click) menu.

You have to right-click the .rar file. This will give you a menu with a number of options. Choose "7-Zip", drag right, and you'll get more options. Choose "Open archive". You'll get a window that looks sort of like a Windows Explorer window.

Drill down until you find a file that looks like "000071 - Order of the Flaming Rose-071.TheWitcherSave" or something like that. It will have the suffix ".TheWitcherSave".

Select that file and click "Copy". You'll get a "Copy To" dialog. Click "Browse" and browse to your Witcher 2 gamesaves folder. It will be something like "C:\Users\Guy\Documents\Witcher 2\gamesaves". Click "OK", and the file will be copied there.

Then launch TW2, and start a New Game. You will get a choice to import a Witcher 1 save.

I told him this already. I even posted a picture of it.

I'm close but not that dumb I knew that but when i did that it said error one unable to archive

Cory, your patience and willingness to help is out of this world. Have a virtual flower for all your hard work!

Please dont take this as ungratefulness, actually know what before I say that in that save the 492 I think where would the Raven armour / unq silver sword be? I already checked the storage and inventory and only thing unq is the steel sword the mackam sihl I'm pretty sure whoever did that would have that armour and at least one unq silver sword. Would I get it from thaler? Or does he really not have (I hope he has it) it ,also I checked it on TW and it wasnt in his inventory. Again Dont take this as ungratefulness I just want to know.
