All,

There seems to be a bug...my trophies are not saved when I play this game off of card. I don't know what is going on. I even tried powerrun but no cigar. I hear that people are having a better time using zlauncher but I don't want to have to move to another launcher. I am currently using megalauncher.

Yeah, I noticed the same thing happening with me (and I'm using ZLauncher)... I've had this happen with a couple other games, too (losing some kind of "state", like trophies in Chuzzle). Basically, what you need to do is make sure the "Saved Game" file (or "User Prefs" file) stays on the PDA... Basically, with Chuzzle there are 3 files: The Chuzzle.prc file, the Chuzzle music file and the User Prefs file. When I first moved Chuzzle to the SD card (using ZLauncher), it pulled all 3 files to the card; manually pulling the User Prefs file back to the PDA (using FileZ) has stopped me from losing all my [hard-earned] Trophies! :)

Perhaps there's something similar you can do with your launcher. ;) :) Hope that helps! :)

PS - But in response to the the generic "Bug" subject, I've found a couple... One is only aesthetic, but occasionally there are eyes that are "left-over" and don't get cleared until another group of Chuzzles go into the bottle... They seem to "float" in the upper left-hand corner...

More annoying, however, are the occasional "Phantom Big Chuzzles"... These are where Chuzzle THINKS there's a Big Chuzzle, but in reality there are four small Chuzzles... The four small Chuzzles MATCH [color-wise] like they're supposed to, but they are somehow "linked" and actually MOVE as if they're one BIG Chuzzle. Haven't been able to pinpoint exactly when this happens, but every so often I run into one of them and it's quite irksome... (Clearing just one of the small Chuzzles in the Phantom Big one seems to "unlock" the others, but until that happens, the four small Chuzzles move together, shifting two rows/columns at a time and do NOT "wrap" around the screen.)

If you can take note of when it happens, that will greatly help the developers. I had it happen once after popping a big chuzzle along with a few others. I think 6-7 popped at once, and then I got the Phantom. I know they're still working on trying to find the cause, so if you see it.. post again! :)

I had the same issue Try moving the Saved Game file back to Main Memory and this should solve the problem. You may need to use a Third party product to do this.

The other way that seems to clear the phantom big chuzzle problem is to exit to the main menu and reload the game.

Thanks alot for all your help everyone...it worked...nice. Just move the pref file to main memory and you're good to go.

Wow, you guys are good. I only had it happen once.

It happened when I cleared one big chuzzle on the top row and a couple of cascading events cleared more. One of the new, small Chuzzles was the same color as the original big guy.

The top two rows were locked (vertical as well) like there was still a big Chuzzle and it was the new Chuzzle of the same color that it treated like the big guy.

Chuzzle, that's a hard name to remember for some reason.
