Title: Moving Achievements to New PC
Post by: Lilly0w0 on September 11, 2024, 10:52:50 pm

Hiya! I've been playing GE:S for a while now and unlocked some achievements, but recently I swapped PCs and now am a bit worried that my achievements will be gone. Is there anyway I can move my achievements from one PC to another/where i can find the location of a file? Sorry if this seems a little bit redundant or dumb!

I have GE:S on an external drive in case that helps! However it also makes me wonder...would they still show or would i have to reinstall?

Hi,

You can just copy your gesource folder to Steam\steamapps\sourcemods on your new PC and it will work. In particular the files you’ll need to preserve your achievements are

* gamestate.txt
* gesdata.txt (if it exists)

These both reside inside the gesource folder.
