Campaign mode not saving on Linux

[Main Tomato]

Anyone got any ideas why the game Isn't saving my progress though the campaign with Steam Play/Proton and Is anyone else having this issue?

Look at the games Steam settings. Is Cloud saves available?

[♂TheBlasterMaster™✞]

There you go.

Maybe it used to save on GameSpy or Epic servers? Remember, this was not originally a Steam game.
Did you look here.... \Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\UTGame\SaveData

u need to make s online ingame account to save!


offline mode doesn't support saving

[adz]

yep i wish it had a offline single player mode where u could save

[adz]

ill check it out so thus fix means i can play offline and complete the campaign ? even exiting the game?

[adz]

wait so you need to make a online profile keep that save data name it if u want to play offline for it to save?

ima bit confused. can we just sign in as offline which uses player as default and when i save my game and exit the game it wont save?

[adz]

so i started fresh. i went login as offline than it used my name as player than i played a few levels exit the game went back as player and the continue button wasn't there so i lost progress. i checked my docs and saw Player.ue3profile.
but going back in game it was wiped my progress even with the same file there.

yeh i know what u mean now! thanks.

is it unlimited account making?

You need to create the in-game account and log in

You can actually save progress in offline mode. You only need to change your profile to anything other than the default "Player".
Step 1: Edit ~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/Unreal Tournament 3/Engine/Config/BaseGame.ini and change

[DefaultPlayer]
Name=Player

to something else.
Putting your name just into the username field and proceeding to play offline might do the trick, but changing the default is better.

Step 2: Play in offline mode a have your progress saved.
You can verify timestamp changes for your save file at
