Quick save corrupt

[mjg132]

Right, somewhere along the line, during trying to fix that f!ucking audio stutter/freeze bug, ive done something to my save games files somehow.
What happens is im stuck at one save game point,a quick save not auto BTW, and no matter how much i progress from there and save,it keeps taking me back to a previous and the same save game point no matter what the ('moved on from there') load screen i select.

First thing I'd do is look in the save game folder, right click on the quick save files and see what the properties say and if "read only" is ticked or not. It shouldn't be.

If that looks okay, you can try removing your quick save files and put them in a folder somewhere else. Then when you quicksave, the game will make new quicksaves in its "SAVE" folder. Maybe HL2 generating new quicksaves that will help.

Did you do something in the console related to save game files when trying to fix the stuttering?

The main 'SAVE' folder refuses to be anything but 'read only',the quick saves are all unchecked ,and seem 'ok'.
I havent changed anything in the console,but i'll try removing the quicksavesand putting them somewhere else.
Thanks for the reply!!

Yayyy..after faffing about with this and that ,i had 2 save folders..i had to sort out were the original was,put the 'copy' in the trash,but save the files from there and then put them in the original,replacing the files in that one. (?....)
SORTED!!
.....Apart from the fact i've still got the F!ucking Audio stutter/freeze !!!

Er... okay... the "SORTED!!" bit sounds like the save thing works now, I guess.

Can't help you with the stutter. If I knew the answer to that, I'd be a very rich guy, I figure.

Valve should be working on a patch to fix the audio stuttering problem and they are looking to get it out to everyone as soon as possible.

I sure hope so. Stuttering is not very bad for me but the latest patch causes crashes now.
