Help with cracked/official please
I just bought the leggit version on Steam after i saw the features and played halfway through CODEX version and what i simply want is to know if there is any way i could convert my progres from the Codex version so it would appear on my newly installed Steam version.I have searched the discussions but ,so far, i have found mixed answers,with some people saying it is not possible to transfer savings between Codex and Steam version,with others suggesting 3rd party programs and with others just BS-ing around and whinning about how "you shouldnt have played on the cracked version".Can some1 post me a step by step guide on what should i do in order to get my SAVED GAME FROM CODEX VERSION to appear on my STEAM VERSION,please?And if such thing is not possible,can somebody confirm that...?

It's not the versioning, it's that the codex version uses a random SteamID when it first runs and that gets embedded in the save, locking the save to that SteamID.

It is the same issue that causes us to be unable to trade saves from this game. Each SteamID's saves can only ever be loaded by that same SteamID, so the only normal way for you or anyone else to play my saves would be for me to also share my Steam account login with you so you could load it with my SteamID.

There are ways of altering the SteamID by editing memory locations using CE, but judging by OP's lack of return carriages, spaces and such and their plea for a "step-by-step" guide... it is far beyond their capabilities to find the correct pointers using CE and change it, which is what one would have to do to change the embedded, random SteamID to their actual, legit one.

The only guide I've seen that had a table with the pointers and would work, worked when the game on Steam and the codex version were the same (v1.20). The v1.21 version we run on Steam is different, the pointers have changed, and you would have to be skilled enough to find them yourself as opposed to just copy/pasting from a guide or using a downloaded table.

Sorry OP, you have to start over.

ty for your answer.Idd,my strong point lies more on replacing missing teeth rather than missing variables between games so....i guess i'll just start over or skip it for good...
