Import boss from SR4 to GOOH

[noir_7]

This board is kinda dead huh

Finished SR4 recently so I have save files available. Both titles are through Steam but I still get the default white male boss in the first cut scene.
I even loaded up SR4 again and went to Image as Designed and updated my character so I'd have a fresh autosave but it still defaults to the white male boss.
Any solutions?

Thats completely irrelevant to my problem. Make your own thread.
Again, does anyone have a solution?

This is just an educated guess, but I'm thinking since the save file format just changed in this latest update to SR4 (November 22) , GOOH no-longer knows how to import the boss character, so it uses the default white male boss character. I suggest you report the issue in the SR4 community forum since Volition (IdolNinja) is actively monitoring that forum and keeping a list of issues related to SR4:

Similar threads with similar problem. Cultprit is the addition of steam workshop to Saints Row 4 and prior to that the save file format have been changed. So that means Gat out of hell can't properly load the save from SRIV anymore and you end up with a default generated boss in the cutscenes. Solution is that Gat out of hell needs an update as well to be able to read the new format.

Is there a workaround or any way to modify the files on the user end so that the character can be properly imported? I just bought GOOH a couple days ago just after beating Saints Row IV for the first time and this really sucks. I put quite a bit of thought and time into creating & customizing my boss character and would love to see her in GOOH even if it is just for a few scenes.

I'm afraid not. It's really up to Volition to fix that.
