Summary0003320: I would like to have some custom tooltypes: - Language selection (so it skips
DescriptionGameVersion: pre-install
SlaveVersion: 1.0 (first release)

I would like to have some custom tooltypes:
- Language selection (so it skips the ingame selection screen)
- Skip intro and manual protection screen
With both set game should start into main selection screen (start game, load game, ...)
A strage problem I noticed is that sometimes saving doesn`t work when I quit the game and restart it again to load last saved game. Save and load during gameplay seems to work fine. If I have to guess then two things might be happen. Some strange error in the game/patch that maybe only occurs when playing for a longer time (hours) and system clock exceeds 0 o'clock. Next, after quite game the saving procedure tooks some more time and a reset "kills" the write process on HD. I use SFS and normaly I wait at least 1-3 seconds for the filesystem be finished. In "worst" case 5 x 40 files with total of around 600kb in size have to be written.
Btw. does WHDLoad save to HD before it quits to WB or after it goes back to WB?

Updated install has been released.
Sorry no time for your feature requests.
The disk write cached is flushed after returning to the workbench.
