[WD] Changed choices.

-Possible Fix-

The game stores a "prefs.prop" in two places. One in:

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

And the other in:

D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\the walking dead\Pack\default

Or if you don't have the Steam version, its somewhere in your game DIR.
Do backups before overwriting anything.

Copy the prefs.prop file from your game's DIR folders, and overwrite it in your Documents\TTG\TWD folder

Go in game and load the save game with your finished EP1. Switch to EP2 in the chapter select and run it.

This worked for me when any other solution did not. My decisions carried over.

That's interesting. I don't have the issue, and i also don't have prefs.props in the game directories at all. I wonder how they got there in your case.

My only TWD prefs.prop is in
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead
where i would expect it to be, based on previous TTG games.

If you run the game in compatibility mode for win95 or win98/me it saves to
%PUBLIC%\Documents\Telltale Games\GameData
instead.

This worked for me. You just saved my weekend.

What Cruisix and Warxsnake suggested seems to have worked for me; moving the prefs.prop file into the Documents folder: A) brought back the "Previously on the Walking Dead" intro, which had only played the very first time I'd started the game and not on subsequent start-ups; B) preserved my Episode 1 choices (two of them, at least - Carley is alive now, and the "Previously on" intro reflects a different interaction with Kenny in ep1 than it initially did, though I haven't played further than the opening minute to verify if ep2 honors all ep1 decisions).

If it matters, my game is installed to a different drive (E) than is my OS (C), though I'm not using Steam.

Yes Warxsnake! You saved Carley! Thanks man, god knows what I've screwed up if/when the patch comes out by doing this, but at least I can continue now. Pretty key to the entire game that your choices carry over...

I'm pretty sure it'll be fine, the file you copied is supposed to be there anyway.
If there is an issue after patch, just recopy your backup.

[herodirector]

wtf !!!!

Same problem for me...

I saved the girl, and I can't stop to hear about the doug pie...

I restarted already, redo the last chapter from episode one...
It's just boring...

Is it a real tell games or what ?

SHIT.

Somebody can fix this bug ?

It's not working because I am on a mac...

I play on mac, and play with steam.

Did someone from telltalegames can help the mac users ?

thank you....

This worked. You are a saviour!

[herodirector]

Thank you ElectricBoogaloo

but this is working for pc.
not for mac...

Os architecture on mac is not the same as pc.

[herodirector]

But no one from the programer team have any solution ?
Is that to the users to correct the failure ?

[brawl.kc]

Sigh.

Re-installed game. Deleted Save files. Played all the freaking way through again, made same choices. Still, Carley instead of Doug.

I give up. I even randomized choices in a FOURTH unreleated game. Still, Carley. You win Telltale, you win.

So you copied the prefs.prop from your game DIR to the documents DIR, right?

Didn't work for me. And I just realized my larry/kenny decision is somehow messed up, too. I sided with Kenny, they even say so in the preview for episode 2, yet it says I sided with Larry in the stats.

[IMBAsuna]

like some pointed out (and i had to realize) my "workaround" seems to be none ^^

the way i did it just created me new random decisions for Ep2 which luckily represented my actual choices made in Ep1

warxsnake "fix" seems to work pretty fine, though! some of my friends (and ppl in this thread here obviously) said that it actually worked! so thank you, good sir

Thank you! Seems to be working.

[Fenchurch]

Worked for me too

Just another question (I'm new to this forum):
Is there any chance a Dev or CM will post here?

I mean, this is a little(?) bug that almost destroyed the game for a lot of people, but there's no official help or even response.

I have to say, I'm pretty pissed of by TellTale

Mike has been posting in this thread trying to get info/help. Not sure what he does, but is on the Telltale team. So I'm sure they're aware of it, and working on it.

[Sucrizzle]

After updating the props file I was able to start episode 2. But when I tried to resume my progress, all the saves were for episode 1.

Going to do a reinstall and start from scratch to see if that helps at all....
