    [​IMG] Hey all, sorry if this has been posted before.
    I own a PowerMac G5, OS X.
    Installed TOB, downloaded correct patches.
    It will not save a game.
    Googled this problem, found many others with same problem.
    Tried several solutions, none worked.
    Have repaired HD & permissions, turned off one processor, only installed the TOB patch without the SOA patch, etc.
    Nothing works, Macplay kept sending me suggestions, none work.
    Matt Loria of Macplay even contacted me and explained the de-bugging process.
    I still have not played the game and would really like to.
    SOA was one of the best games I ever played.
    Anyone know a solution for me?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    My specs are below.
    Thanks!

    Yeah, sorry I can't help you either...I'm a Mac user but I played BG2 on my old Windows machine, from before my Mac days. I wish you luck! Sounds frustrating.
