so does it have cloud saves?

[RU55ELL]

the real question

[RU55ELL]

Anyone who’s played know if cloud saves or grabbing the save file works?

[Heazy]

My Steam Deck is showing cloud save is enabled.

[RU55ELL]

Are you able to test it, I won’t be able to access my 2nd machine for a while so I’m just wondering if people can see it functioning.

The menu shows cloud saves enabled and it using up space in the cloud but on my Steam Deck I can't access the save games. Might be a Windows/Linux issue but currently I can't proceed on the same save on the Deck as on my desctop PC.

I played on the Deck, and it shows that Steam Cloud is synched. However, I'm unable to access that save on my Windows machine, even though it also says that the Steam Cloud is synched and up to date.

So....Yes, but no?

Steam Deck does show it as enabled, but does not upload anything once you exit the game. My guess is we have to wait for an update.
Bright side: the game works fine on the deck.

Confirming that Steam Deck indicates that cloud saves work, but they are not moving to my desktop.

So here's a crazy thing... my plan was to play on deck streaming from my pc. No issues. Now when I go play locally on my pc the option to load that save isn't there. When I stream it to deck all is good though. Super weird. Isn't streaming it from pc the same thing as playing it off that same pc?

Are you positive you're *Streaming* it FROM the PC to the Steamdeck while playing? (Meaning, your PC is on and running the game. You're just viewing it and playing it on the Deck).

If you're *Streaming*, then the saves SHOULD be on your PC locally. If you unintentionally installed the game on your steam deck and you're playing it *NATIVELY* on the steam deck, those saves are currently going to be only accessible there.

Until they enable cloud saves and it begins to share save files across both platforms. That's my understanding, at least.

[JD8180]

Positive I'm streaming it as its running on my desktop monitor as well. I don't have the game installed on deck. Very strange.

[ElOso0811]

I believe it is currently broken. GeForce now has my save but my steam deck says new game only.

[Gynsu2000]

Same issue with Steamdeck here: even if I *STREAM* the game from my PC, I cannot continue my saved game. Now if I exit the game and restart it from the PC ... saved game is accessible (?!?)

[Erufailon]

It does. It's not steamdeck compatible in the sense that they obviously didn't test it on the steamdeck, but it does sync, just not to the right folder. You can create a symlink, so it would see the right folder name with the same contents as the folder it syncs too. Google Midnight suns steamdeck save symlink or something like that, there are quite a few posts explaining the workaround. I don't know if this is a problem between windows machines, my guess would be that it's not, but I'm playing on both windows and the steamdeck and my saves work and sync correctly (after the symlink workaround).

((I constantly backup my saves folder on windows though, because I'm afraid that when they fix this, it might break something and sync the wrong folder to the cloud thus erasing my saves))
