HEUREKA!!
I had the same problem like others, couldn't save. After a lot of trying and loading on an other computer (without success) I now have found the conclusion. For some reason the zip doesn't automatically extract the Game folder together with the other dates!
(Look into your folder Gr_1869, if there is no game folder, you shouldn't be able to save)
If that happens to you, just extract the game folder SEPARATELY into the Gr_1869 folder. Then you can plöay ans save. Good luck :)

An additional remark to my post HEUREKA
You don't see the saved games in the big black box, but if you click on the positions they should be, you can read the names under which you have saved in the otherwise empty grey field under the black box. If you have found the game you want to load, simply click on the grey field with LOAD.

I read the instructions on page 1. I hired the men and asked for an average crew. How do I actually move my ship to Amsterdam? Right click the port? Doesn't work.

I right-clicked on the ship but all I got was a screen showing the load, crew and condition. Nothing to move to another port.

Oh, sorry. Was it left-click then? :huh:
You need to get a yellow cursor with a compass rose. A ship appears and it's name and shape in percentage.

EDIT: There's the manual available on the site if you like to.

I worked it out. Thanks alot :D

Yeah, the left click thing.

I found the full manual! :brain:

In that site: www.lemonamiga.com

It's an Amiga version, but the manual is for both the plataforms.

Thenks everybody for the tips & triks :ok:
