For example, a character can be imported from Quest for Glory I directly to Quest for Glory III without having to necessarily play Quest for Glory II. To use a saved character from the original Sierra interpreter, rename the character file to "qfg[game-number]-[character-filename].sav" (for example, <code>qfg2-thief.sav)</code>and place it in the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/settings/paths.html ScummVM save path], otherwise the file won't get listed on the import screen. | For example, a character can be imported from Quest for Glory I directly to Quest for Glory III without having to necessarily play Quest for Glory II.

It is possible to re-import QFG4 saves back to the same game, for example for [http://sierrahelp.com/Cheats/QfG4Cheat.html Import Cheat], allowing a character that has finished the game to play again. For that, you have to rename <code>qfg4-XXYY.sav</code> savefile to <code>qfg3-XXYY.sav</code>. This will trick the importer into thinking you are doing import from QFG3. | |||
