Default TWD: Can't start episode 5 with own savegames

Hi,

I have a problem to start the latest episode with my own savegames. I played the first 4 episodes without any problems and now the game asks me to create a savegame for "skipped episodes" - but i didnt skip any.

If i start the last chapter of Episode 4 and play it till the end i cant go on with episode 5 too. This time because it is supposed to come "soon". Aint coming shit soon - this episode is out now...

Anyone can help me out here?

Same issue here, I'm trying to re-download the game, see if that solves it.

Do me a favor and tell me if it worked for you. Redownloading would take some hours for me.

Same problem here, i can start the episode randomly gennerated, but if i want to use my ep4 save i first need to replay the finale minute (did that three times now) only to have the game anounce to me that episode 5 is comming soon.

Could you fix this tell tale? Like 5 minutes ago. Thx.

I had no success

It still ask me if I want to "generate story decisions for skipped episodes".

Well, there a bunch of people with the same issue in the steam forum. Noone has a clue how to fix it.

Damn this sucks! I want to play this one badly... but not without my own savegames. Aint gonna happen!

Just found something on steam forums. It doesn't concern episode 5 but 2. Anyway, the guy seems to had the same problem as we do, I'm going to try this and inform you if it worked. Here's the link:

It worked for me! Awesome

Just copied the pref.props from one to the other folder and it worked fine.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you, guys.

I did exactly what the guy in the steamforum told us to.

Copied the prefs.prop file from
"D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\the walking dead\Pack\default"
(It was hidden in one of the subfolders there.)

to
"C:\Users\___\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead"

and it worked for me.
