Transferring save files from Episode 1

[Bev]

Hi, I played Episode 1 ages ago and finally bought the EA game, but my save files either aren't synced with the cloud or they aren't being picked up by the new game. Any idea which could be the issue or how to fix it?

If I need to go and manually port the save file from my old PC I can do that, although I'm also struggling to find which folder saves are stored in.

Hi! I don't think cloud saving between Episode 1 and the EA game works — the import solution we've used is that the EA build and Ep 1 both write backup saves to the same library folder on your computer, so when EA is booted up for the first time it finds those saves.

You should be able to pull those files off of your old computer and their put them in the same library folder on your new device OR in the save folder in your install directory.

This link should contain the pathing instructions you need to find those files: https://savelocation.net/renpy

Let me know if this sorts things out!

Thank you! I'll try that when I can dig my old machine out :)
