Save files

Categories:File FormatsEXE

Contents

PC save files are located at:

  • <Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\287700\local\
  • <Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\311340\remote\

TPP uses GZ directory (311340) to store actual save files and backs them up in TPP directory (287700) for Steam Cloud sync.

Save file names:

  • 287700 (TPP):
    • PERSONAL_DATA<index>
    • TPP_CONFIG_DATA<index>
    • TPP_GAME_DATA<index>
    • TPP_GRAPHICS_CONFIG
  • 311340 (GZ):
    • MGO_GAME_DATA
    • PERSONAL_DATA
    • TPP_CONFIG_DATA
    • TPP_GAME_DATA
    • TPP_GAME_DATA<index>

Save file name is set in lua, 00_dat/Assets/tpp/script/lib/TppDefine.lua. You can change it to keep main save file safe.

Save files are encrypted with symmetric algorithm. Their contents are player-specific variables (like GMP, staff etc.) and lua variables encoded in strcode32.

Use TNT to decode/encode files and inspect their contents.
