Cannot create a quickstart game

Zyllyx · 12-25-2017, 06:59 PM

Just purchased FHM 4 for Steam. Am in the opening screen and went to load a quickstart game, and although there are three quickstart folders in my Documents tree, nothing shows on the list of quickstarts in the opening screen.

The Quickstart option is more for ones you will create. Just start a standard game to play from the the ones we've created.

Note: Quickstarts can only be created on Day 1.

(Edit for further clarity): Although they appear in the Quickstart folder, the Opening Day and Current Roster Update are not really quickstarts.

Yeah - to be clear, to use the quickstart load screen, you need to first create a quickstart game (using "Save as Quickstart" from the game menu) after starting a game in one of the regular three (standard/custom/historical) modes. The quickstarts are just a way to create a customized game start for yourself so, if you have a certain set of changes you always want to start a new game with, you don't need to edit them in every time.
