New Feature : Force saved data import
This allows more control over importing saved data from the original
game into Darksiders Warmastered Edition saved data.

Instructions for Force saved data import
1. Open the file %appdata%\kaiko\darksiders1\config.ini
2. Add the line 'force_save_data_import=true' to the [game] section.

When starting the game it should now always ask you whether or not
to import saved data, given it finds original saved data. Please note
that all slots that your original save contains will get overwritten in
the WME savedata. You can remove unwanted slots from the original saved
data before importing, these are files either in
%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Darksiders or
%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Darksiders\[YourSteamID].

Please backup your darksiders1 WME saved data before force
importing, but make sure you store your backup outside of the steam
cloud folder, otherwise the game can't save any more.
