Nioh: Complete Edition can't sync save file

I wanted to play Nioh on my steam deck but I wanted to use my save file that's already on my pc so I tried the cloud save sync on Heroic games Launcher but it didn't work so I tried to manually upload it and get this error:

What Wine version are you using to play the game? The save path (

/home/andresj1/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Nioh The Complete Edition/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/KoeiTecmo/NIOH/Savedata/78d3d056138342eb86c651deb30d7f26

/home/andresj1/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Nioh The Complete Edition/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/KoeiTecmo/NIOH/Savedata/78d3d056138342eb86c651deb30d7f26

) suggests you're using Proton, but if you've since switched over to Wine, this folder (as in, the folder configured in the game settings) might need a reset

I'm using Proton-GE-Proton7-28

CommandMC•6/17/23, 4:19 PM

Right, so that folder should be correct

Well, are there any files in the save folder?

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 4:19 PM

Yes

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 4:20 PM

SAVEDATA00

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 4:20 PM

and

I tried to rename the folder to this: "b5e42b0dc2f544a5bbb4080a433b8b71" and it didn't work

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 4:22 PM

The folder has a different name: "78d3d056138342eb86c651deb30d7f26"

CommandMC•6/17/23, 4:22 PM

Yup, that's your account ID
I'm looking into it, luckily it seems like this game was free at some point so I can test things myself

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 4:22 PM

Ok, thanks

CommandMC•6/17/23, 4:25 PM

      "CloudIncludeList": {
        "type": "STRING",
        "value": "SAVEDATA.BIN"
      },

      "CloudIncludeList": {
        "type": "STRING",
        "value": "SAVEDATA.BIN"
      },

I assume a file simply named SAVEDATA.BINSAVEDATA.BIN isn't in that folder?

CommandMC•6/17/23, 4:25 PM

(is it in one of the subfolders maybe?)

CommandMC•6/17/23, 4:55 PM

Seems like a SAVEDATA.BINSAVEDATA.BIN should be in both of those folders

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 4:55 PM

Inside the save data folders have the same file SAVEDATA.BIN

CommandMC•6/17/23, 5:03 PM

Right, there's the issue. Legendary currently expects this file to be directly in the save folder (& not in a subfolder). I'd be curious if the EGL does this correctly

I could create a version of Heroic that simply passes --disable-filters--disable-filters to the save sync command, but you wouldn't be able to use this on the Deck... Would you be fine with manually copying those files across for a couple days?

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 5:05 PM

I don't mind doing that since filezila exist.

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 5:07 PM

Thanks for checking it our and helping out

CommandMC•6/17/23, 6:39 PM

You can now download the Linux-packageLinux-package from https://github.com/derrod/legendary/actions/runs/5299564136 & specifiy the legendarylegendary executable in there as an alternative Legendary binary (in Heroic's Advanced settings). Once that's done, save sync should work

Note that on the Steam Deck you'll have to place the binary into a folder Heroic is allowed to access. ~/Games/Heroic~/Games/Heroic works, for example

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 6:47 PM

I'll trey it out

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 6:47 PM

Try*

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 10:29 PM

Hello, sorry for the late update

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 10:30 PM

I downloaded the Linux-package and when using the legendary exe in HGL I get this error:

Legendary
Error:

CommandMC•6/17/23, 10:31 PM

Have you marked the binary as executable? (chmod +x ~/Games/Heroic/legendarychmod +x ~/Games/Heroic/legendary in a terminal)

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 10:33 PM

Not it let me do it

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 10:33 PM

Now*

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 10:33 PM

I think it worked

Right, there you go, save's uploaded

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 10:34 PM

Thanks, you're a life saver

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 11:01 PM

I tried it on the steam deck and it says it succesfully downloaded the save file but it doesn't update in game

unfair-whiteOP•6/17/23, 11:02 PM

I even tried deleting the save file and letting HGL make a new one but it didn't work

CommandMC•6/18/23, 10:19 AM

Hm, how does the save folder look on the Deck? Are the files you've uploaded there, in the same directory structure as they are on your PC?
Does manually copying the files over work?
