Can't open Epic15 save

For some very strange reason I can't open Epic15 starting file (I had the same problem with Adv24, but NOT with Epic14).


I did patch to 3.13. In fact I did it several time, the patch is asking if I am sure I want to reinstall since it notices that I am with 3.13.
On the other hand BtS seems to be believing it is still at v3.00 (that is what is written when I ask for version under advance sub-menu), if I check for updates through the ingame check, it does write there is an update and it downloads again the 112Mo, but after downloading it, when upgrading it does notice v3.13 is install (but still want to redownload after checking for update, go figure).

PS - For BtS, I had no MOD or anything fancy install, and everything should be in the 'default' directory ('user/mygames/... or something like that)

PS2 - Don't know if related, but I always had and error when double-clicking on a BtS save from explorer (saying a dll file is missing afair) while never had any pb with CIV.

Probably the best way is to reinstall the game.

I thought I already had reinstalled but I did it again and realised I had an unknown (and undesirable) dual install (with the patching happening on the unused one of course).
Using the auto-uninstall just remove one version, so I had to manually uninstall the second one.
After reinstalling and re-patching, I of course had my graphics card crashing the game since by default the game is in full screen mode (which as some might remember from a previous thread, my PC can deal with CIV but not BtS). After resetting the ini file in proper mode, I now have a working BtS3.13 hooray...

PS - funny thing is that I might have played all the previous Epic and Adventure using v3.00 without knowing it and BtS accepting the initial saves...
