BGII ee "Not Enough Free Disk Space to Save Game"

BuffaloSolider95

BG II ee Version: 2.5.16.6
System:
Mac OS X Yosemite v. 10.10.5
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)|
2 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB


No Mods Installed. I recently purchased all three BG ee games (BG ee, SoD, BGII ee), and used the Beamdog client to download and install them

I ran BG ee, SoD totally fine, played through the entire games. Now with BGII ee, After I start it up, and the opening scene and convo with Imoen is over, I get the message ("Not Enough Free Disk Space to Save Game"). I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling (via client), and get the same message. I have tired this through the Black Pits II and get the same message. I am unable to create a new save game at all in BG II. I have over 36 GB of Free Space, so that's not the issue.

One thing, I looked up older threads, and they usually say "check if you have "Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition" in your Documents folder." I do NOT, however I do have "Baldur's Gate - Enhanced Edition" . For some reason, all games were installed in Beamdog Library (only accessible via the Library), but only BG I gets a separate folder in the publicly visible documents folder.

Help much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It might be your antivirus, see https://support.baldursgate.com/issues/38607 and https://support.baldursgate.com/issues/37633

Another idea- please check if you have the documents folder. Please see https://support.baldursgate.com/issues/38139 and https://support.baldursgate.com/issues/39779 (for MAC)

Update: I was able to fix by changing the install path to a new folder. I created a new folder in Library/Games/BG2EE. Installed it there, and that solved the problem. Have no idea why, but it works.

It seems that the Documents folder only appears AFTER you've started the game and it creates its first save. If you haven't started the game yet, or its unable to create saves, you will not see the Documents folder.
