So...I added this download (4 files) into my save folder, and all I got for it was all of my saves were gone. I had to start all over, and all of my Boss creations were removed. Everything was reset, and I didn't get any save from it. Was I supposed to do something else besides just copy into the save folder? Two of the files in the download overwrite existing files, so I assume that is why I lost my saves, as the profile is now named something other than mine. I deleted the files, and started all over, and I will not be downloading files from you ever again. I don't like surprises, and having my account totally over-written like that, without giving a heads up about it, is just too much. It took me hours of uninstalling/reinstalling the game, so MY ACCOUNT would be back, and not the one you put in this save folder.
Dont need to blame the author. He provided here what he needed to, the correct way to install the save files is...... if you try to directly copy paste the save it wont work and wont register ingame, its either you got a different from the save or game doesnt register save files received from other sources. What you need to do to get it working is:
1. extract both the save files Save(number) files in the zip onto your desktop 2. find your save file location which varies if you bought the game legit or is pirated version (Search net for save file locations) 3. go ingame and save another separate save file slot. 4. copy the save(number) in your save folder of the save slot you just made (you should be able to tell because its the most recently modified one in your folder) 5. copy this "Save(number)" into the downloaded save you got from here. YES replace the number on the 2 saves on the files you got from this zip with the same "Save(Number)" as the save file you just created ingame. This must be the same 6. drag the save file you just renamed into your save folder(IF YOU DID THIS CORRECTLY IT should ASK you if you want to replace). Click YES 7. go ingame and the save you just override should now register in your slot.
DO NOT put the two SR_profile files u got here in this zip into your save folder as it will screw up your saves and will make your saves not register ingame. ONLY NEED to GO ingame, save game into another slot, copy the "Save(Number)" and rename the two Save files u got from this zip with that number, drag the renamed save into your save folder and replace. Done go ingame and it should show the updated save, load game and enjoy.
Yes, it took me ages to figure out because most authors assume that you can just directly replace the saves. For some reason game does not like that and doing this saves wont register ingame or appear or in your case no longer appear.
So follow my above instructions and it will work for you. This has been tried and tested by me using all the different authors who posted saves here and all work. Spread the word if this worked for you and enjoy the game and save.
Normally, I would have just let it go, and started over, but I lost my legit account to this, and when I tried to log in, it said I was some other account, and it banned me. It took me hours to get my account back, proving I was not using a cracked game, and that the files in this download is what changed my account.
"DO NOT put the two SR_profile files u got here in this zip into your save folder" <---- THIS is what happened to me. These files changed my account, and caused me all these issues. I wish this was here before I downloaded the files. If I totally delete all of my save folder files, and start new, would this reset my account files?
Right now, I have six different game saves I can not play, because the game does not recognize them as being mine, and when I tried to verify the files through EPIC, it makes my game not launch at all. I will have to uninstall/reinstall all over again, or deleting my save files would fix this?
Never mind, my save files have apparently been moved as well, and I can not locate the new ones. I deleted everything in my save folder, loaded the game, and was able to load up a save I (thought) I just deleted. Seems I am going to have to not only uninstall/reinstall the game, but start looking for hidden files that were added, and allowed to not only circumvent my security, but also modify my programs without my permission.
THIS is why I said what I said, and sorry, but I have to stand by it, as there is NO REASON that this should have occurred just by installing a save file for a game, if it was legit.
EDIT: I found my saves for the game. For some reason, this download changed my save location to inside my Steam account. WTH would it need to change the location from EPIC to Steam? Now, I have to try and figure out WTH happened, and how to undo it, since my account now says it is permanently named CODEX. I changed the name in the .txt files, it changes back as soon as I log in.
So, I guess a complete purge of my PC of all of these files for the game, and these one downloaded here, and have to hope that reinstalling the game from fresh this time will fix it, after deleting everything in Steam for this game.

For the moment the game cannot be done at 100%.
