Hi, All!
Have a few questions now that I've returned to S2 after many months of The Elder Scrolls and a disastrous infection/computer crash.
1. Is there a way to save more than once? Sacred let the player save multiples - 8 or 10 as I remember. 2. S2 activates the Internet on Startup. Can that be disabled? 3. During a melee, the Attack/Targeting icon (arrow or sword) gets lost in the chaos. Can the icon colour/size be changed? ...Ne' Eleos

Long time ago that you posted these questions, so have you found any solutions?
Off the top of my head I do not know of a way to get more than one save slot per character, but you could make a copy of your saved games and then play around with whatever you wanted to do and then overwrite with the older ones when done. I am not sure what you are wanting with more than one save but something I just tried out was to go to my saved games and then I copied one of my characters, then I renamed the files to say hero04 instead of hero01, and when I went into the game I did have two copies of the same character in there. I am not sure if that will be of any use though since you do not get to choose a spot to overwrite.
I am not sure what you mean by the game activates the Internet as I do not see mine do it. The only things I can think of is that it is doing maybe a check for security or maybe checking for updates.
For issues like you are having with the icon I can only say to make sure that you have the game updated, as well as Windows and your video card drivers as a start.

Area;
As per saving more than once, I hate escort duty, hieing off into the hinterlands with a bunch of sissy NPCs that attack everything with their fists, and die by the handsful!!...So I like to test the waters with the group to see what I'm up against and where I'm going, then go back forewarned and forearmed. I now keep 2 copies of my SavGame files to give me this option.
Rushing thru' the mission to keep the NPCs space-hopping to keep up works, too...but it still uses too many health potions to keep them all alive.
Well, on start-up, S2 dials/connects the internet. I have updated it to vs. 2.43.0, to no avail, and I have searched in vain for some software process or check-box that is telling it to check for updates upon starting. As a work-round, I monitor the taskbar at start, and when the dial-up box appears, I manually close it. That appears to prevent S2 from a re-attempt during gameplay.
As for the Attack icon, I was hoping to increase its size a bit, and change its color from white to ?? White is the color of too many other elements during a melee...Ŋє۱Єlєοѕ

would you be able to get a screen shot of the thing that pops up? I am thinking it may have something to do with a Windows setting, but I want to see what the thing looks like so I can know where to start.
All you would need to do is to hit the print screen button when you see it, it may say like "PrtSc" or something similar to that on your keyboard. Then you can paste that into the paint program and post it on here, or you could email it to me.
