Thanks!**5/14/2021 LEGENDARY RELEASE DAY***
Happy MELE release day everyone! I'm sure you're wondering how Mass Effect Saves work with MELE, and, well, there's good news and bad news.First, the bad news, and it's pretty bad for now. Original ME1 (OME1) save files used a format called .MassEffectSave, and there were also profile files called .MassEffectProfile.OME2 and OME3 used a format called .pcsav.When you imported a character from OME1 into OME2, something behind the scenes did the work to look for and convert those .MassEffectSave files to read it and start ME2 as .pcsav files.Well, MELE1 just... uses .pcsav files. I've done a little testing and as far as I can tell, MELE2 won't recognize those .MassEffectSave files to import to MELE2. I also tried just changing the filenames to see if that would work by some miracle, but no, it does not.The good news is that... from the limited amount of testing done so far, ANY OME2 save file should import just fine to MELE3, so masseffect2saves.com is still 100% useful. Also your old OME2 and OME3 files should open and work just fine in MELE2 and MELE3, respectively. I've tested this some and everything feels good, my Shepard just looked a little weird.However, unfortunately, that means the entirety of the masseffectsaves.com ME1 library doesn't work for importing to MELE2 right now.There is sort of a work around which, in theory, should work. If you import a OME1 file into OME2, then after waking up on the Cerberus base, exit the game, open that new .pcsav file in Gibbed's, and flag it as a completed save, then save it as a new save... that save should, in theory, open in MELE2 if you start it as a NG+ import. I don't know if that works yet, I'll have to test.Or, just grab a OME2 save file from masseffect2saves.com and start that as a NG+ in MELE2.**3/31/2020** Small Downtime!
Hey everyone, my hosting provider upgraded/moved some stuff around on the backend of the site, and we had to change DNS servers, so you may have experienced some short downtime while the DNS updated. If you're reading this, it should be all over now.It's also come to my attention that Shepard submitting is broken. We're not sure why. It's being looked at, may continue to be broken for a while. I'll post again when it's not! Thanks to ThinkingNessaja and TheLone_SheWolf for letting me know!
That's Ok, I thought, I'll recover them from backups. That's when I found that the directories where the Mass effect save files are now (C:\Users\...\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 2), were created when I recently opened the game, didn't exist before and thus there were no backups from that location!
If you find yourself managing save files often, you could give MASGAU a try. It is a save-file manager that can scan your drive for saves, so you could use it to find your saves (if they are still existing).
If you've been playing Mass Effect 1 since it was launched all the way back in 2007, chances are, you will have had a new computer or laptop come now. And of course, when you get a new computer, you need to transfer your save files over manually. If you're still playing on the same computer, or you started playing the game many years after its release, you might want to take a backup or share your save files with a friend. Whatever the reason for you being on this page, we're going to show you exactly where Mass Effect's save files are located.
The action role-playing has been taken to the next level by Mass Effect 2. Developed by BioWare Edmonton this is really an eiting game to play. Similar to the Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect 2 will not need online authentication. A basic disk check is the only thing required. The graphics are supercool. For videos you may visit at:
