Hi.

I get an error "failed to load save game" This saves has an .ini file, and that's whats missing (on the save file), but can be loaded on the tool

[Saves] Save001=AC4BF[0]-tm_2022_10_25 21:35:31 Save002=AC4BF[-1]-tm_2022_10_25 19:59:18

save3dmgames.zip

with generics saves the output is: -> Processing "2.save" ... Game title: Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag Save info: AC4BF[0]-tm_2014_02_28 22:44:14

... Done.

The other saves, have to be lacking that info.

Thanks

man plz can u find a 100% complete save data for ac unity? i've found this but it wasn't working pc-assassins-creed-unity-savegame.zip

[Wasshup]

ac4save_generic.zip Please try with these converted saves. If the game can't load them, please use ACST to change the game key to your own.

Thank you very much, those are working. What method did you use for conversion ?

[linuslin0]

@Wasshup ACST doesn't support non-standard saves. But we can make them load by put back the correct save header (first 0x228 bytes as we can see by looking at a standard save) with the save info string in the ini file.

@alvgarfer ac4bf_generic.zip

[linuslin0]

@Acunity I need a test save from your own account to make these saves able to load.

[alvgarfer]

@alvgarfer ac4bf_generic.zip

OMG, you DID it, thank you very much, that's my actual save from my game, and it has been read by the Ubiconnect game.

Many thanks, I love your tool. I use it many times, on 4 different AC games.

Would be nice that a FC tool like this exists

Hello, limuslin0, you are the best! Can you please create smthg like small guide how to do that? What programs to use for example. Cos the problem is quite widespread. Not only for BF. The whole comunity will provide you greate respect.

[linuslin0]

@RavenorG You don't have to do these manually. I believe there are save tools available to handle such non-standard saves (3DM in this case).

[linuslin0]

@alvgarfer Np, glad it worked for you.

[RavenorG]

@RavenorG You don't have to do these manually. I believe there are save tools available to handle such non-standard saves (3DM in this case).

I'm talking about converting non-standard saves to uplay. So if I try to convert them via your great exe, it will be "failed to load save file". You have helped some guys to make saves standart and load - how? Tried to hexediting, nothing worked. But if there are save tools to go that - i could not find any unfortunatly.

meh, seems that I knew about it. However, it didnt work with saves of original liberation hd.

[linuslin0]

@RavenorG Yes that tool is only for ACBF, other games using non-standard saves still need to restore the standard save header manually as mentioned above.

[RavenorG]

Tried, nothing worked as intended. How that shall be done?

So may be you could make them for me? I send test save file as well. saves liberation.zip

[linuslin0]

@RavenorG ACLHD_converted.zip Here are the converted saves. You might want to check the header (first 0x228 bytes) if you want to try it yourself.

[23alepou]

It took so much digging to find the 3DM tool. When I found it I saw a familiar name. Linslin0, you are an angel.

Please provide a story save generated from the ACR game on your account, and the save you want to convert.

Hello Sir thank you for your reply. I have another save files here. AC Odyssey 1.5.3 Save files.zip

[JamaicanQT]

Hey @linuslin0, I've been trying to do it myself but no luck. Idk what I'm missing. Am I suppose to use an Hexeditor or something else? Can you please help me convert my files too? ACU.zip

[linuslin0]

@lifeoff95 Please try the converted saves attached. They are now using the provided encryption ID, if that ID is correct then the game should be able to load these saves. AC.Odyssey.1.5.3.Save.files.converted.zip

Valhalla saves should work out of box. If you encounter issues please attach them here.

@linuslin0 are people using this tool to fix the bug where Ubisoft just deletes your save? Just happened to me with Origins, and I have the save file, but the game won't pick it up for some reason. I have legit steam version. I ran my saves through your program but is there something else I should be doing because it's still not showing up.

Is there a difference between the .SAVE files and the .SAV files? Mine are .SAVE files and they don't seem to be working whereas I can download the .SAV files and get it working with the not-so-legit version of the game I downloaded for testing.

Sorry, you seem to have your hands full in this thread.

If you already disabled the cloud save sync and saves still got deleted then most likely saves were corrupted or not using the correct account id. .save extension is being used for legit games on the client. However for ACOrigins, this tool can convert .sav to .save and use the converted saves in the legit copy of this game.

[dokkodo1]

@linuslin0 so if I convert a save to my account do I have to always keep the Ubisoft connect program in offline mode or can i, after loading it up, restart in online and will cloud sync detect somehow that it's illegitimate? Thinking it's probably best to just restart the game and pray I don't lose my save a second time. Rip

Oh we don't need to put the client into offline mode, just disable the cloud save sync in the settings and swap saves. If saves could be loaded without issue, we can turn it back on.

[anihilat]

@linuslin0 Hello, I went into problem while converting Black Flag saves (also in others games Liberation, Rogue, Steep, Revalations) that in "Encryption ID" it wont let me type a long enought the CD key/Acc ID of the game. It is limited only on numbers (no words) + 4 times writing (no more). So that's the obstacle which stops me in continuing. Is it possible to fix it?

[linuslin0]

@anihilat That's by design to prevent the potential invalid inputs. For those games the decryption/encryption ID are their activation keys, which in a format that only support digits and capital letters. i.e. 3DB-ABCD-1234-EFGH-5678 or ABCD-1234-EFGH-5678. If for some reason you want to disable this input validation, press Ctrl + P and uncheck Validate ID input.

Thanks for a tip but the problem is that I running through Ubisoft+ subscription which don't let me show the CD key of the games. Don't know how to do it other way If only way is to buy game... I also wrote on Ubisoft Support but they don't let me show the CD key when I going on Ubisoft+.

Edit: And are you sure save convert works on Black Flag? Because I don't know how to test it correctly. Because if it would work I will need then buy Black Flag with CD key somewhere. Can you check for me please if it still works correctly?

[linuslin0]

@anihilat We don't need to know the activation key. As already mentioned in the README, we can load a test save generated from your account then this tool will try to detect its encryption id. This tool has been tested with all games listed in the README.

Hey @linuslin0, I'm pretty new to this and am running in to issues. I believe these are non-standard saves, also really struggled to find that 3DM that didn't look sketchy. I was hoping to avoid bugging you but could you take a look and help convert my files if needed? AC4_Saves.zip

They are non-standard saves indeed, I would also need the ini file along with them and also a test save from the game on your own account.

Hello I've been trying to get the save files from Fitgirl's Odyssey repack to work on the legitimate version, I use the Ubisoft launcher and I've turned off the cloud sync, I tried using the converter tool but the game won't recognize the save files. Maybe someone more experienced with the tool could make these work? I attach files and the encrypt ID: 5059.zip fb0bd049-232e-4b49-b484-4d0b797fd667

Please try these saves. 5059_converted.zip There shouldn't be issues to load them if that encryption id is correct.
