just downloaded it and within 5 minutes its running at like 10 fps i turned down the graphics and i have a good pc a good pc to run stuff on high settings. would this mod be causing it to behave like that?
Be advised that on top of basically unlimited cash this save also comes with basic projects completed unlocked - which isn't that big of a deal - and the shotgun already upgraded to level 3 - meaning you are locked out of the other upgrade paths. This is not - as the uploader claims - "a save for a new game with only two missions completed".
So all the DLC was there on Epic version (Steam did not work), but reloading the save trashed my PC. Am not saying that this caused it, but it could be possible. Anyone else have this problem or can confirm that it is safe?
This works on Epic because you get EVERYTHING from the Epic version. That's why it works.
The instructions are not lining up for Steam, but I'll see if I can't figure out what has changed if this is still legitimate.
The game from a make you spend more real money had been extensively updated in steam. It looks like there is a hidden sync. Trying to delete the saves etc. is not allowing "this save" to be seen and used. It is still able to see the original saves and ignore this one.
This works but has changed a lot.
As of this date Jul.3.2023 the following works. Backup before you try because you will likely fup your game if this doesn't work for you.
Download this zip and extract the save file. Put someplace safe you can copy it in.
Delete the contents "all of it": C:\Users\"Your user"\Saved Games\id Software\Rage 2\Saves
Delete the hidden steam contents or it will overwrite the contents in your user saves. Under the main steam library this can be put anywhere now of days and mine is not default so: ...\Steam\userdata\87806040\548570 In this folder delete everything.
Now copy the save file you extracted into your user save location C:\Users\"Your user"\Saved Games\id Software\Rage 2\Saves
When you load this save it will give you access to all of the game content minus the intro missions.
You can start a new game and don't delete this save if you are curious to experience the intro missions.
Savegame works perfectly and I can finally play the DLCs. I have tried a lot of "fixes" to activate the DLCs and absolutely nothing worked, not a single one of the supposed "fixes" worked for me and the DLCs refuses to activate, this savegame of yours is the ONLY thing that actually worked so far. I would prefer s savegame with the Female Character because I really like her voice, but it is what it is. Anyway, thanks for the save, cheers.
Update: i tried it myself it only gives the BFG and the single mission added with the Original Deluxe edition, excluding the story campaigns such as terrormania and rise of the ghosts

It works with my updated instructions on STEAM.
See my post on how to actually install it.
His instructions are outdated.
