fable-3pc
My brother and I want to play Fable 3. The problem is that we can't save the game on different memory slots as there is no option to save.
I started the first game. When my brother started playing the game, my save levels were lost.
So, is there any way I can start a new game without affecting his save levels?
Let me know if my question is not clear.
Well, hopefully you'll find a better answer, but one workaround is to simply back up some of your older saves to another directory.
On Windows 7, my saves are stored in
C:\Users\MyUserName\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 2\Save\John_12_Soldier_260110
That last bit differs on a character-by-character basis. You could grab the .pcsav files from there and move them to a backup directory. Now you've got some archived saves and free slots. If you want to restore them later, you just drop them back in (though you probably need to make sure you aren't bringing the total over 50 if you do).
When you begin to uninstall the game via it's uninstaller, you will see the following:
Make sure you tick the checkbox for Keep Save Games if you want to keep your saved games!
Note: I do not have the Steam version, so I am unable to test what happens if you just right-click on the game in Steam and select "Delete Local Content". To be on the safe side, run the uninstaller as I did, through Control Panel->Programs->Uninstall a program

Fable 3 stores your saves in
C:\Users\(Username)\Saved Games\Lionhead Studios\Fable 3, so the simplest solution is for you and your brother to use separate Windows accounts (which is something you should probably be doing anyway).Altenratively, you can use individual scripts (.bat or other) to move the saves around before launching the game for you so you can maintain 2 separate sets of saves on the same user account.
