this is a full save but... what about the Chao? do you have any Chaos Chao by any chance? i've always wanted to make Chaos Devil Chao but never pulled it off xD
For anyone not wanting to lose their original save, follow the posters instructions but BEFORE you transfer the save to your files, change the file name in the RAR from 01 to 02 then bring it over.
Can you explain a little more? I don't see any instructions other than "put it in savadata folder" and just doing that doesn't do anything. It's a .rar file, what am I supposed to do with that? I'm honestly confused..
Heyo, apologies if you don't need this any more, but I figured I'd answer in case you (or anyone reading this!) still does :) Instructions with screenshots are here
1. Find your Save Data location. As the modmaker noted, this is usually in either: - \Steam\steamapps\common\Sonic Adventure 2\resource\gd_PC\SAVEDATA\ - or \Sonic Adventure 2\saves\
2. Download the .rar file from this mod page and put the .rar file in your save data folder for ease (you can move it somewhere else later).
3. You need an Extraction Tool. Rar files are actually compressed folders and can contain many other files! WinRAR is a free extraction tool, and so is 7zip (which I use!)
4. Extract the files. You can usually choose to "Extract here" which will place them directly in the folder, or you can "Extract to..." which will let you choose where to put them. I usually "Extract to [subfolder]" so I can keep track of which files are new.
This is my subfolder from the extraction process. Sonic Adventure 2: Battle save data only requires one file each, so there's only one file in here.
5. Rename the file to "SONIC2B__S02" if you want it to be your second save file.
6. If you extracted the .rar into a subfolder, move the 02 save file into the SAVEDATA folder. If you extracted it straight into the SAVEDATA folder, you can skip this step!
Is there a way to get the achievements by having this save file? I've tried beating Finalhazard, and that didn't do the trick. I'll try winning a Chao race next, but my hopes aren't high. :/
