    My game crashed to desktop while I was playing, which tends to happen from time to time with this game and has never been that big of a problem, but this time when I tried to load my autosave, when I clicked load it would just reload to the title screen, so I reset the game and tried and my autosave had vanished, but was still in my dredmor folder, so I backed it up. Now everytime I load the game with my autosave file back in, it immediately deletes it, and it doesn't allow me to transpose my files onto one of my other saves. My last hard save was ages ago and I would be losing roughly 6-7 hours. Is there a way I can get my autosave to work again?

    Try running the game not from Steam, through the .exe instead (with Steam closed) and see if it still deletes it.

    Thank you for the reply, and so quickly. I tried your reccomendation, and my save shows up, but it still won't load, and it just puts me back to the title screen.

    Well, thank you for trying to help, when I load the game with the hotfix installed it starts to think about loading it, then ends up doing the same thing. Looks like I'll never beat this game. Back to the drawing board I suppose, have a good day.
