Cloud Saves?

[GlaucomaPredator]

What's going on with the cloud saves in this game?
Started the game up on a different computer and it starts the game from the beginning, does this game not have cloud saves?

Im pretty sure it does have this option, you might have disabled something in the game. I did a windows reinstall last week and my save still there.

Yeah it's not working for me at all, I have cloud saves enabled on Rockstar Social and when I boot the game on my steam deck and select story it starts the game from scratch.

I have tried to do this between 2 computers and a Steam deck. Rockstar social is a big pile of steaming sh!t.

What do I have to do to make sure cloud saves are working.

I can't find anything that has a fix.

I saw the syncthing discussion but that is clunky, the daemon won't run unless you are in desktop mode.

Ok figured out how to sync saves between Desktops and Steam Deck.

The R* launcher option inside the app to enable cloud saves does nothing and doesn't work.
The fix is to force the R* launcher to prompt you for; "Would you like to enable cloud saves?" and you clicking Enable Cloud Saves while launching the game.

Do this first on the system that has the most up to date RDR2 save.

On Desktop PC delete your C:\Users\<UID>\Documents\Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\Profiles\B3CB6C2A\cloudsavedata.dat file.

On Steam deck delete your /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1174180/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/Rockstar Games/Red Dead Redemption 2/Profiles/B3CB6C2A/cloudsavedata.dat file.

Then launch the game, now you should be prompted to enable Cloud Saves.

EDIT: Fixed the Steam Deck save game location, if your location is different just open terminal and run this command to find it find ./ -name cloudsavedata.dat

Hey do you have any other solution because I tried it today and its not working.

You need to be logged into R* launcher and you need to delete that file on both systems. First delete the file on the system that has the most up to date save game. Then the other system. I have tested this extensively between 4 computers. A steam deck, a Fedora Linux install, and two Windows Computers.

If this doesn't work you'll need to setup something like syncthing and manually synch your save games between machines.
