    55> Anyway, please note that is not a common usecase, basically you expect to move files between different engines without user itervention. I don't think this ever happens anywhere else in ScummVM.
    66Like you wrote above, you didn't work a lot on SCI but over there every QFG game does it. QFG4 accepts only QFG3-*.sav, QFG2-*.sav and QFG1-*.sav files. QFG3 accepts only QFG2-*.sav and QFG1-*.sav files. The original QFG2 accepts only QFG1-*.sav files. And when #14754 becomes official, QFG4 and QFG3 will even accept qfg2agdi-*.sav files. If QFG5 become supported it will also accept QFG4-*.sav files. But none of them accepts their own files.
    7 This is even though QFG4 in infamous for actually accepting its own files (which is a cheat). But in ScummVM one has to rename them to a previous game to make it work for the mere principle of not accepting the game's own files.
