Uploading Savegames for the SuperBox

Post by Xenon_Slayer »

Hello everyone,

As you may have read in the forums or on Twitter, we are planning a X Superbox which will contain all the X-Series titles as well as a great amount of extra content from EGOSOFT and the Community.
Find out more information here.

You can submit interesting Savegames from any X-Game for inclusion in the Superbox. Here are a few examples of what we are looking for:
  • A game with several player factories and complexes with a small number of Universal and Sector traders.
  • A sizeable fleet of player owned ships, some using wings. Credits are gained primarily by selling captured or boarded ships.
  • The Boron and Argon dislike you and you have enough ships to deal with them, sector by sector.
  • The Aldrin Expansion missions are ready to play, with most of the universe mapped.
Please, do not upload any modified savegames as they will not be accepted. We may request some savegames which use certain Mods in the future.

As you know with the X games, the possibilities are vast and we hope to include as many as we can. Here is how you do it.
  • Follow this link to the Savegame upload area.
  • Click on 'Browse' and navigate to the save file. The location can vary per X-Game.
    • X: BtF, X-T and X2 savegames are located in the main game directory.
    • X3R and X3TC savegames are located in 'My Documents/Egosoft/game name/Save'
  • Include as much of a description as possible.
    • What game and version was the save made in.
    • What is interesting with this savegame.
Thanks everyone. We look forward to going though the submissions.
Owen

That must just be a placeholder in the message that gets replaced by nick of the receiver. Typical "spam" advert con to make it feel "personal and real". ;)

Probably a wrong bit in permissions somewhere.

This, from the resources and guides sticky looks pretty good. I haven't had a chance to test any of them though since my reunion is heavily modded at the mo. Maybe someone could ask the author, cheeseburger?

Once more I am accepted! Ah the joy. I can feel the self esteem dribbling back in through my pores.

Now all I need is to find the dvd with my X:R savegame on it. Somewhat worryingly it isn't where I was sure it was.

You do need to change the wording though:
Please provide a short description on what we need to do to reproduce your problem:
I assume this is a reused tech support page?

I have a save game with the Terran Plot finished, and only a few kha'ak missions done.

In argon space I have one XL spp, 3 large crystal fabs, a small complex with 3 laser tower fabs and 7 regional traders supporting it finiancialy. The areas cahoona supply is getting strained at the momment, but ecells and ore are still good.

Some rare ships ( not all ) sitting at stations waiting for a HQ. A hercules a disco haluer and 2 tp ships with marines. ( from the plot )

Does this count as a savegane you are looking for? Or is it to established commercialy and not established enough in the realms of military?

I've a game just at the end of the Poisoned Paranid start, about a day and a half in.

All my race reps are reasonably shiny, I haven't started any of the plots but am eligible to do so and I've more or less mapped the whole universe (Terran Sectors aside). I've got a shiny Hyperion - I can reload and mess with the tunings if you want either a specifically supertuned one to give the player a boost start or a normally tuned one or whatever - the prototype skate for a nice M3+, my Demeter set up as a sort of MORT right now, but that could be outfitted as a MK3 trader easily and my trusty kestrel of course :)

This is basically set up ready to take on the game, from whatever angle pleases.

Is that anything close to what you're looking for?

Do you have this saved moments before turning in the mission?

.. if so i'd be interested in that. 'with the least amount of explored areas'

As well i have the Tormented Teladi saved at the Trading station and before turning in the mission, claimed Skate and Blastclaw ( sold most of thier equipment and starter ship ) and found credits (75k) in Unknown Sector.
^^If that's whats being looked for 8) ^^

Suggestion/Request

Post by clcabbage »

Does anyone have a save with the 'HUB' completed, but not much else? ( say, like having untouched the Corporation missions and such )..

eg. as with as little impact on the game (outside of Hub missions) as possible.

I know , tall order right..

If player saves from vanilla gets put into the Superbox and someone uses that savegame, how will it show up when he\she uploads playing statistics?
Will it be counted even tho they did not make the acheivement?

They probably can do some chicanery to tag a superbox save, but whether they will or not...

Does it matter? Likelihood is that any included saves are going to be chosen more for an interesting situation than for being record-breaking.
