Empire of Sin?

I don't know if there's an easy way to translate these two - even opening the save files in steam v. native game pass shows some very different encoding. But if it's possible to transfer from xbox, I'd be keen to hear it!

Oh my, this is a very late reply but I must have missed the email for this and haven't been on github. I'm not sure how these files are stored, but if you have opened them in something like a text editor, and they are not plain text files, they can look very different and still be the same format.

In order to create a file translation I would need a screenshot of what the files look like in the converter (to know what the container names and blob id's the Xbox format uses internally) and the file structure of the steam save files.

Oh no worries, thanks for the reply! Here I've attached a few images - let me know if this is enough to go by.

Here's what it looks like in the converter:

The "Xbox Save File Encoding" screenshot, is that the container.2 file, or the other file with the complex name an no extension? At a glance it looks like a container file. The container file is a file the Xbox ecosystem uses to keep track of the actual save file the game uses.

These container name 1's though are very complex and they are cut off. Any chance you could expand that so I could see the full name?

Ah, sorry - it's the one that is not the container.2 file, it's the one without an extension. This is what the container.2 file looks like:

And here are the full container name 1 fields (it won't actually let me expand the column but hopefully the tooltip is sufficient; the others are essentially the same):
