#14754: AGS: Quest for Glory II Remake: character can't be imported to later games
due to file prefix
------------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: lwcorp | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Engine: AGS
Version: | Keywords: import
Game: Quest for Glory 2 |
------------------------------+-------------------------
This game is a remake, so you shouldn't expect other decades old games in
the series to add special support for it. Unfortunately, ScummVM did just
that by prefixing its character endgame exports with **qfg2agdi-** (e.g.
qfg2agdi-test.sav) instead of keeping the original form **qfg2-** (e.g.
qfg2-test.sav)
**Steps to reproduce**
1) Finish the game
2) Supply a filename
3) Try to import it to either QFG3 or QFG4
**Expected result**
In both QFG3 and QFG4, the import is shown, clickable and works
successfully
**Actual outcome**
In both QFG3 and QFG4, The import is not shown and thus not even testable
**Additional info**
The solution should be to either:
1) Change the AGS implementation to using the original form **qfg2-**
2) Change both QFG3 and QFG4 to respect the **qfg2agdi-** prefix just like
the **qfg2-** prefix
Obviously 1 will be quicker, while 2 will be more organized and logical.
