When transferring to the new Linux server, I was surprised to find out that a directory can only contain 31,998 directories, which means there were some save files that couldn't be transferred. New users (anyone with an ID above 145372) and users with IDs between 87815 and 99999 wont be able to able to load or save their progress for the time being. I'm hoping to figure out a solution to this problem within a week. I'm very sorry for those who fall into this category. Once I've figured out a solution, your save files will be transferred, they will not be lost.

Everyone else should be able to load and save without problems.

If you have any questions or feedback, please ask in this thread.

Looks like I just missed the cut. Woo.

It would suck to not be able to save while others could.

Hi David, I appreciate the work you've been doing around here.

There's still an issue for us RGR staff about uploading screenshots (where those three boxes for screens are at the top of each game). Whenever I try and upload one, it says "Upload Successful" but it never appears. Can you take a look into that too?

Awe dang it, I am one of them. Hopefully it will all turn out good soon. I sure hope everything will be fixed soon.

If I mistaken and mine does work, please let me know and explain.  Mine is 97992.  If it should be okay, tell me.

Someone70 : The ability to upload stuff on the new server still doesn't work, I'll get to that on Monday.

legoles1129 : Your ID number is the number at the end of your profile URL.

Anyways, yay, guess I can still save. It's too bad that screenshots don't work because I was going to do a few for fun.

But, what needs to be done, needs to be done.

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

Save may not work but good job on having a retro game be running for 24+ hours and not crash once.
