2. Press "Open..." and select "ACBF_Seq3_Start\1.save" and "ACBF_Seq3_Start\2.save"
3. Allow it to auto detect game and decryption ID
4. For encryption ID press the button "..." and add a test save file from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\[random numbers]\437\"
5. Convert
6. Drag "1.save" "2.save" "1.save.upload" "2.save.upload" from "ACBF_Seq3_Start" to "437"
this might be a me problem but i cant seem to convert the saves, it may be because i use a pirated version but i highly doubt that so is there anything you could do? ACS always says "unable to detect encryption key"
Still doesn't work. I've tried everything. Loading my own save first, loading the new save first, using the encryption key, not using the encryption key, using just save 1, just save 2, both 1 and 2, nothing. No, I'm not using the pirated "version" The tool doesn't work anymore.
For step 2, to be specific, you select the save files you want to have (I used the save files "1.save" "2.save" from Getsmor's sequence 7 folder)
I went and selected Black Flag for the game decryption vs detect on step 3, it was giving me an error with detect.
In step 4 select your original save file currently on your system to be replaced from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\[random numbers]\437\" as you mentioned. Note: If you don't have a save file or haven't started the game, I advise you to start the game and play it for a bit to get those original save files.
Clarifying step 5-6, once the conversion is done you should see two new files from where you selected the downloaded Getsmor's save files. Grab those two new converted "1.save" "2.save" files (check for the most recent time/date stamp) and replace the ones in your system files under the Ubisoft folder ending in 437. Also, I suggest to backup these original "1.save" "2.save" files if you want to go back for any reason.
Got it working, save file is as advertised. Only thing is that Kenway's Fleet does not appear to be functioning. I am stuck on a loading loop, not sure if it's a bug from messing with the save files.
Thank you for this. I was up to the same point in seq 6, but my save got corrupted somehow.
Ubisoft in their infinite wisdom decided that the game would only keep ONE COPY of their save, with one single point of failure. So if your file gets borked you have to replay the entire game. Yipee!
I'm not sure how a company that huge with that many employees could make that colossal of a blunder. I'm not even a game dev (or even that smart) and I could tell you that is completely stupid.
It just sucks that I lost my own progress, I was having fun. Playing someone else's save game just isn't as rewarding or personal. :/
Either way, thanks. I'll play through to the end but my desire to get 100% synch just went down the toilet.
Open app, then. Choose AC:BF Choose "1.save" in folder, for example "Sequence 7", then press "Detect" opposite "Decryption ID" copy and paste Key from Steam (RMB on AC:IV in Library - Manage - CD key) into "Encryption ID" and then "Convert"
do the same with "2.save". Copy files into Ubisoft savefiles location

step that i was missing, at the very end, copy-paste the save files from the mod and override my save files.
No, I'm not using the pirated "version"
