Edit .save File
Editing the save file is a good way to get around not yet balanced game mechanics and restrictions. Or maybe you simply want to test something out without spending hours getting to where you want to be in the game to test it. Or you may have a broken savegame and need to fix it to load the save, rather than starting over.
You can edit most of your save files. This may allow you to add new trucks to your garage, collect bugged upgrades and much more.
What you need
- Aug 04, 2008 I really need to edit a.sav (SPSS) file to display as today's date. The code in the file is ineligible and I desperately need to change the date within the coding of the file.
- Open the document library and select the link on the file you want to edit. If the file type is supported for previewing, it will open online. If not, you'll get a download prompt. Once downloaded or opened in an online app, you can edit and save the file. When you edit online in Microsoft 365, your files are saved automatically.
- Simply load the most recent savegame via 'Load' since that is most likely the current active savegame file the game will use. Once loaded it should show all properties the save contains, you want to look into 'SerializedWorldData' since every object and its data is in there from the world. Selecting it will show every saved property for.
But i recommend to use notepad++ with JSON Viewer plugin. Also you need to disable steam cloud saves. Then play some time after you edited your saves. And them you can enable steam cloud and overwtite data in here from local files.

%SteamInstallFolder%userdata%userid%1465360remoteCompleteSave.cfgthis file contains all your save data from slot 1, exluding fog on map. I don’t know how to remove/edit fog, because this is binary files with unknow to me format.So you needed just locate this file and open it with text editor. then you will see one long string. Use format JSON from plugin in notepad++ to convert it to more redable format. And then you can edit your file. I show one example how you can edit it.
This flie is pretty large, so i ommited some part from it. So i want to remove all my stored truks. All i need for this is just clear all data from trucksInWarehouse array. Clean array will look like this:
'trucksInWarehouse':[]
And then just save file. Also in persistentProfileData you can edit your money, expirience and other stuff. Have fun.
