I can't find the save files of the Linux version. I installed the game manually on my steam deck and wanted to continue a bit on my desktop, but I can't find where the save files are.

I checked PCGamingWiki but there is no "/Epic/BASS2/Saved/SaveGames/" folder anywhere on my home folder.

Any help will be appreciated!

With my system configuration, the game is using the value of "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME" ("$HOME/.config"), rather than the variable mentioned on the PC Gaming Wiki page, "$XDG_DATA_HOME" ("$HOME/.local/share").

On my computer, the save data resides at this location:
"$HOME/.config/Epic/BASS2/Saved/SaveGames"
or
"$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/Epic/BASS2/Saved/SaveGames"

Hopefully, your saved game data does indeed reside within the aforementioned path.


If, somehow, the position differs from my computer, and it truly is using "$XDG_DATA_HOME", try:
"$HOME/.local/share/Epic/BASS2/Saved/SaveGames"
or
"$XDG_DATA_HOME/Epic/BASS2/Saved/SaveGames"

I do have this folder: "$HOME/.config/Epic/BASS2/Saved/" but no "SaveGames" in it, just "Config" and "Crashes"

How odd.

If the files exist on any of your mounted drives, this should locate them (with mechanical drives, this may take a little while):
su
cd /
find . -type f -name Player1_Settings.sav
or (if, for whichever reason your system used something other than 'Player1' as the prefix):
find . -type f -name '*_Settings.sav'

If either of the listed 'find' commands are successful, they will have printed the location of the settings file, which resides within the same directory as the save data. I wonder if you might have executed the game using superuser/root privileges; in such an event, the game would have saved the data within /root/.config/Epic/BASS2/Saved/SaveGames -- only a guess.
