    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


    Q: Where can I find my Dragon's Dogma 2 save files?
    A: Your Dragon's Dogma 2 save files are typically located at:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\{your_user_id}\2054970\remote\win64_save

    Q: Can I start a second new game and then switch back to my first game?
    A:     Yes, absolutely!

    Q: Does Savedrake support managing multiple characters?
    A: Yes, you can manage different characters by creating distinct backups and labeling them for each character. Savedrake doesn't have an explicit multi-character feature yet (Might be added if enough users ask for it).

    Q: What naming convention does Savedrake use for backups?
    A: By default, Savedrake names backups with unique, game-related titles like "Archer Drake.zip" or "Cyclops Arisen.zip". You can customize this to use simple timestamps instead through the settings menu.

    Q: How do I customize the notification sounds in Savedrake?
    A: To change the notification sounds, replace the `success.wav` and `error.wav` files with your chosen audio files, making sure to rename them to match the originals.

    Q: What's the best way to organize my backups in Savedrake?
    A: Within the app, right-click on any backup in the list to rename or delete it. You can also use the "Del" key to delete or "F2" to rename. The refresh button will update the app's current state.

    Q: How do I get started with Savedrake?
    A: Refer to the 'Getting Started' section for a step-by-step guide.

    Q: Are there any current bugs in Savedrake I should know about?
    A: There are no known bugs as of version 1.2.4. If you encounter any issues, please report them.

    Q: Where can I send feedback or feature requests for Savedrake?
    A: For feedback or feature requests, email [email protected] or post here on the Nexus forums. You can also see ongoing work at the Savedrake GitHub repository.

    Q: Can you summarize the main features of Savedrake?
    A: Savedrake offers a variety of features to enhance your gaming experience, including:

    • Backup Management: Easily create and restore backups of your game saves.
    • Customizable Naming: Choose how your backups are named, with options for game-related titles or simple timestamps.
    • Notification Customization: Personalize the notification sounds with your own audio files.
    • Multi-Character Support: While not a dedicated feature, you can manage multiple characters through distinct backups.
    • Organizational Tools: Rename, delete, and refresh backups directly within the app interface.
    • User-Friendly: Savedrake is intuitive and user-friendly.
    • Stability: A stable release with no known bugs in the current version.
    • Community Engagement: An open channel for feedback and feature requests via email or forums, and transparency through the GitHub repository.

    I recently started the game - literally a few quests. Can I install this mod now without risking losing my game saves and progress?

    How do pawns work with this? Is there only one copy in the online servers and it gets overwritten by your active save? Or can you recruit your pawns across saves.

    It would be a good opportunity to somehow take and transfer some things from the past game to the new one. New Game + uninteresting. when you have everything already. I want to start from scratch, but without skills, experience, level, but still get some of my things from the past game

    Hello, I just installed the mod following the instructions and the software does not detect the backups :/ I deactivated steam cloud etc put the tree structure correctly.
    I see the zips with Windows Explorer but the software does not see them (besides if they are empty :/)

    EDIT: My save files are not on the same hard drive

      Hi! I looked into it and was not able to recreate the issue. It seems to be working as expected on my end. Different hard drives should not be an issue. You should note that empty zip files will not be visible in the app. Could you give me more information like is the app able to create proper backups of your save files? Is it creating empty zip files? etc.

      It creat only empty zip folder named like "Drake Ogre'". if i look in the steam save folder from your app it doesn't see my save files which i can see if i use windows file explorer. If you want more informations, I need more precision

      Can you tell me the path of your steam save folder? And send me a screen shot of the application?

      I've found. It seems that in my "Userdata" folder there are 2 folders named with numbers. Both folders contain a "2054970" directory for DD2, I simply didn't take the right one... It's quite strange that the other folder contains a backup folder for DD2.

      I will now be able to try the mod :) Thanks

    I'm getting weird issues after some manual saves where it seems like SaveDrake is constantly trying to force mouse/keyboard inputs. It's not clicking or anything, but while playing with controller the mouse constantly appears and some controller button inputs stop working (I can attack and jump, but can't sheathe or dodge). Closing the app fixes the issue and inputs work correctly.

      I haven't had the issue happen again yet, so I would consider it fixed for now. Shame about the restore save button being gone now, though.

      All the buttons are there I just changed their placemen, and added some colours to highlight things. Could you elaborate a bit more, I might be misunderstanding something

      I grabbed the new version to test, and I don't have any of the options at the bottom. Used a new folder for it to avoid issues with the older version.

      Can you try resizing it? i.e. increasing the height

      That's the first thing I tried, they don't appear no matter how tall/short the app is.

      It was already unchecked, tried checking it to see if it would change anything. Tried messing with the other DPI-related compatibility options too. Still no buttons.

      Have a look at the sticky post and lmk if that works for you. I am working on adding a few more features to the app, I will fix this issue permanently soon. Thank you for the feedback!

      That's one of the settings I tried earlier, still no buttons. For some reason, running it in compatibility mode for Win 8 gets the very top of the upper two buttons to show and are clickable. Tried that with the DPI settings, no changes.

      Okay. I think the issues are arising because I made some changes in DPI-related code in the program, thinking it will improve user experience. I will revert back to how it was. I really wish Nexus didn't quarantine every .exe file so it could be released immediately. I have to wait an entire day for them to manually verify the files every time I update/make any changes :(

      I have removed the v1.2.2 update because of this major issue. I will work on it, make sure everything is in order then release the next update. I really really appreciate your feedback!

    " The save folder location for Dragon's Dogma 2 should be very similar to the following:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\398729345777\2054970\remote\win64_save "

    Very good utility, thank you.

    I set the autobackup to every hour, but it actually backups every minute. Also, it continues to autosave after the game is closed (but that's my fault for keeping the program open).

    Aside from that, very handy and I feel confident in starting a new save now.

      Thanks a lot for the feedback! I really appreciate it! I will test and fix the issue with the hour and minute confusion in the app. It shouldn't happen. Also, I never implemented a feature to stop the autosave after the game stops. Totally slipped my mind, my bad. I will fix these issues as soon as possible in the next update. Cheers! :)
