Does not save progress in the game, an error constantly appears stating that auto-save is not working P.S.although the level in the game rises, but the progress itself is not saved
Ideas
FIXED!!! maybe...
Either EA have sorted this in the last few mins or my recent muckabouts have fixed it. I moved the F1 24 folder from Documents>My Games to C:>Program Files > EA Games > F1 24.
Now when i load up the game, rather than putting me through the page about gamma, crossplay and audio settings, i go straight to the lobby. Let me know if this works for anyone else.
doesnt work
Yeah, no change for me, tried the location you specified, also tried putting it in the same location as installed (for me D:\F1 24) but no good.
I also tried selecting “no crossplay” when first loading up purely as a ‘why not’ test. Then loaded in. Closed the game and then reopened it. I did this in combination with the change of file location that I mentioned previously. Maybe give this trying no crossplay a go? Cannot see why this would fix it but it’s part of what I did
The game doesn't really like being installed to anywhere other than the Documents folder.
Check that even with a different install destination to default that you still get C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\My Games\F1 24
and the problem is compounded by the EA App (AIUI) that installs to (above path) at least as far as My Documents....
Problem compounded by Windows constantly recommending 'Microsoft Recommended Settings' to migrate contents of profile to
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\One Drive\Documents
which the game then either can't locate the filepath as it's possibly hard-coded (like the above) OR the files are REMOVED and left as placeholders (weblinks) for on-demand access from cloud.
Positively EGREGIOUS actions by Microsoft and schoolboy errors by CM/EA to leave the copy/paste game like this for so long?
Never had the issue as I learned many moons ago not to trust funky Microsoft and their 1D cancer.
Steam does save the save game to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Userdata\%STEAMGAMEID% (really Steam, still 32-bit?) 😮
