I downloaded Mass Effect from Origin and can't find any save files (are they in the cloud). I finished the game completely. I'm trying to also import my character into ME2, which I installed from a disc. The steps indicated here don't work. How do I get my ME 1 character into ME2?
Thanks!
I think that even if you allow cloud saving, your saves are stored locally as well. There has to be a BioWare folder under documents since it contains your config files. Are you able to locate that?
Ha! You're right, I seem to have 2 folders with ME files in them, one was in a different location and I found the save files. I will give that a shot. Thank you so much!!!
I still can't find any of the save files do you know where they are
hey there im trying to do the same thing but i downloaded the game via steam rather than origin so when i get to the mass effect area of steam i look all over and i find no mention of saved games or a folder that might contain the saved games any help would be great
The ME1 save must be in the default location that the ME2 install expects to find them. (Same for importing from ME2 to ME3.)
So for a standard EA/Origin install of both ME1 and ME2, the expected location for the ME1 save is:
"C:\Users\<username>\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect\Save". Adjust accordingly for your own install of ME2!
