Luckily I was able to recover them. However when I put them into the game files they didn't load in.

I'm not too sure on the specific way Renpy ingests these files on the technical level but I believe you need to ensure that your saves and persistent file are both in the local save folder (the directory for the game) and the appdata folder for Renpy (which will have a folder for Sunrider as long as you've launched the game at least once).

Are all files in both locations and if not can you try this next? Remember to fully close the game when making this change.

I actually tested it because I provide a savegame in my Jaguar mod and explained to copy it into saves. But I never considered the appdata roaming renpy folder. But it appears that having the savegame in the saves folder is enough.

However, the game has to be run once before you can add your own savegames into the saves. If there is no Appdata folder yet, the saves won't work.

Sorzo: Stepping away from the Discord for a bit to clear my head. I've been spending far too much time on there lately, to the point of it being detrimental to my work. I'll be back at some point, though whether that's a few days or a few months I can't say. Mar 2, 2023 12:25:05 GMT -8

matti: I can't access Discord server. My account got hacked and it spammed links to another Discord server. My account likely got suspended because of it. I've changed my Discord password and it isn't problem anymore. May I be allowed back on Discord? matti1739 Feb 18, 2024 11:04:50 GMT -8

Nemjen: matti - Sorry for the slow response, currently on vacation. I have removed the ban but please keep in mind that we'll need to keep a closer eye on your account in the interim as a precaution. Please feel free to dm me if you require more feedback during Feb 24, 2024 16:34:03 GMT -8
