Saved Games Missing

August 29, 2023 4:10:30 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire II ForumsSins of a Solar Empire II Forums

Hi, when I loaded the game today, an update was required.  Once the update was complete and the game loaded, all my saved games were missing from the load screen.  Any ideas where they may be or has the update meant they are no longer compatible?

Thanks

The patch notes say that this is not save compatible with previous versions, so I would assume that as the cause.

The same thing happens if you change what mods you have: any saves with a different set of mods can't be seen.

 

I'm guessing it compares the checksum of all active game files against the checksum of the save.

Saves are located in this directory:

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\sins2\saved_games

Inside that folder you'll see a numbered folder, latest is currently "\1012\single_player_user" I think. Incompatible saves will be hidden by the game.
