Save corrupt issue fix

[mrcena123]

After getting many save corrupt errors i found a fix to solve this issue and this method has always worked for me

Lets start it most of the people backup remote folder in which save is location and when they place backup of remote folder in 385730 folder they still get save corrupt error

To fix the error you have to backup the whole 385730 folder and when you get save corrupt error place it in appdata/roaming/steam/username and thats it

sorry for my bad english

No worries, it's good that you came to share your findings anyhow.

It made me realize something though

mrcena points to the appdata/roaming/ folder because apparently he installed Steam there, but what if there is actually other data in those folders, like many games do, which need to be backupped too (other than the 385730 folder in the Steam folder) to properly restore saves?

I'm doing a quick check and can't seem to find anything WWE related in there, I'll look a bit further 

 

EDIT actually, there is a WWE 2k16 folder in appdata/local/temp. It seems to hold only temp(orary) files (no shit) like replays and such, but there is also a cache folder with a lot of logos. Could this be the reason many people can't seem to be able to restore saves? Does this folder need to be backupped too?

I think this %TEMP%\WWE2k16\ folder is just a temporary folder that caches all kinds of CAW stuff and such. The game also puts temporary files there while it's running.
What's really interesting is that the CAW stuff is saved as textures you could use for modded wrestlers as well.

The pirated version of the game stores the save in the appdata instead of the normal steam fodder.
