the silver lining is their transferring it to a copy they bought I guess.
Alright was finally able to convert the old save to the new one correctly. I'll post the steps here so that people don't have to go searching reddit/steam forums to find it.
1. Download the save file editor Sectus made and follow his instructions on how to get that to work.
2. Start the steam version long enough so that it creates a new save for that version. Navigate to the folder where it is saved (should be \userdata\49657277\367500\remote) and rename that save so that it is easier to differentiate between the two
3. Make sure that you have copied the old save from (\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Steam\CODEX\367500\remote) to the place that you installed the editor to.
4. Copy the steam save over to the same place and then unpack it so that it is a xml/txt file by following Sectus' instructions on how to do so. Then navigate to the bottom of the file (or ctrl+f to search for your steam id) and copy your steam id.
5. Unpack the old save the same way you did the steam save, and then go to the bottom of the file and paste your steam id over the one in the old file.
6. Delete the copy of the steam save and its txt file (you don't have to delete if you don't want to, I did it just to be sure) and then repack the old save with your steam id by running this command. DDsavetool.exe -r DDDA.sav.txt (if you changed the name of the old save then ddda.sav will be whatever you changed it to but that is the default)
7. Copy the repacked .sav file over to where the steam save was originally located. If you renamed the original steam save then you will have to delete it in order for it to replace it.
8. Launch the game and it should load up your old save correctly.

That's true. I guess there's no way it would be useful for people who pirated the game without buying it, so that makes it seem less bad.
They don't work for me. Extreme slowdown with both bits. In fact, none of the MT Framework bits work for me.

Posting for the new page.
If you follow the instructions in the OT as how to make a custom profile look right near the top where it says 'SLI compatibility bits' (the last one not the (DX1x) box) and then scroll down to the SLI headed section and amened the Number of GPUs to FOUR and the Predefined Mode to AFR2 and then click Apply Changes at the top right.
Well as I said I got upto ~75% scaling before I got into negative scaling at about 40% per card. Started to go through the DX9 bits one by one but they all have issues or don't work so far.

Does sound swell. I'll admit I've not messed around with the bindings just yet but the defaults are nice.

That's a problem with every character creator, instant regret after you finalize and see your character in motion. Though DD is good in that you can change your look and your pawn's look anytime by paying RC or in post game where you can buy the item to change infinite times.
Title theme into free mod applied and ready to go!

Whenver you want to, you're going to constantly be replacing pawns with stronger ones.

I believe you can ditch him once you enter the rift at the outpost. Pulling this from my memory (and hate of Rook). Hopefully someone can confirm this.
Edit: Beaten.
It's not like Dark Souls 1 at all (where the mouse controls were simply broken, unmodded at least). It's more like Dark Souls 2: KB/M work well, and obviously better than a controller for camera control, but still with some niggles due to the console heritage.
IN.
Not quite the look I had on my 360 save, but close enough. Face is less angular. Can't decide whether I want to run with him again or try being a female Arisen this time, either. We'll see!
Rain looked a bit funky though.

Game feels freakin' great to play at 60fps. Fighting the Chimera was awesome.

Yo guys how demanding is this thing? If my (pretty old) machine can run, let's say, Dark Souls 2 perfectly fine, will it be good with Dogma?
Gotcha. That's what I sort of meant by being pretty much essential for a smooth experience. I'll give the M+KB a shot, but most likely I'll use a gamepad. Thanks!
how do we know which pawns are player created? I dont to use those to help peeps out.
This Haldir fighter looks Capcom made, if not, props on whoever created him
edit: oh it says creator's name in one of the tabs, looks like a actual player.

from wbacon on the Steam forums about the Art Book & OST...
Hi everyone, sorry for the inconvenience. There may to be a configuration issue on the backend. We'll follow up with Valve and get this sorted out ASAP. In the meantime please enjoy the game.

When playing with a ds4 and using ds4windows I can't seem to get the 360 icons to stay, I just get keyboard icons, super annoying!

import savegame? No thanks, real men go through the Dangan all over again.
lol, this is exactly how I feel about this. Well, that and I don't have a choice. My only DD: DA file is on my PS3 and I barely made any progress on that version of the game. My real meaty character is on the 360 vanilla version.
I know it's probably been asked but is there a way to make the in-game button icons look like the DS4 button icons? Alls I get is 1,2,3,4 displays when I'm using my DS4.
Strange thing happened when I was using my really old logitech controller, a lot of the buttons were rearranged. Hold R2 to do skills instead of R1. Triangle for light attack, square for heavy instead of the other way around. Yikes, I thought I was way worse at this game than I remembered. Although, it was fun for how challenging it was.

If I equip an item to another players pawn I can take the item back right?
And what the hell is a level infinite lol?

Someone needs to mod the Berserk armor back in ASAP.
Now I remember why I played offline on consoles... Resting at the inn still takes a minute with pawn syncing every time.
How are loading times for people running it "vanilla"? I'm only using ENB and I can't tell I'm playing it off an SSD.

Infinite = max level (200)
Is anyone else not able to set the game to resolutions >1080p on a 4K display? Anything over 1080p including my native desktop resolution of 3840x2160p results in the game minimizing to the Windows 10 taskbar, where it gets stuck and needs to be forcibly shutdown. That happens with both fullscreen and borderless windowded (with 3rd party tool) modes. Toggling "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" has no effect, and neither does setting the desktop resolution to 1080p. I've never had this happen before, and have no clue what to try next.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Nope. It's recommend to kill critters/animals to farm Discipline Points since they give low Experience Points. That way you still get the DP required to level the Vocation you're using without actually leveling up your character.
Leveling up on a Vocation may give you stats you don't want or need on your desired endgame Vocation.
For example, leveling up as a Sorcerer gives you more INT, but less STR and other stats that a melee class such as Warrior would need.
There is one thing that I forgot to mention about the Hard mode for NG+ -stuff, which pretty much only concerns those who care about achievements.
Starting a game on Hard counts as a fresh start, no matter where you were before in the game and this includes the relation to NG+. If this is the same as on the consoles, you can only get the NG+ achievement by loading your completed save, which then starts the actual NG+ on the same difficulty you were on which you then need to complete again. If you care about the cheevo, just make a quick run through the story again and ignore the side stuff.
NG+ changes nothing in the game itself, save for one cosmetic detail.
You can make them carry stuff, but if you actually equip anything on them, those items are going to the pawns owner (The console version had a warning about this, haven't tried it here yet). You *cannot* get them back unless the other guy hires your pawn and repeats the process.

Thanks for the link to the character editor. Just saved me having to restart over and over until my character looks how I intended.
I picked the assassin type character because I thought I wanted to be a magic archer, but after climbing up a Hydra's neck to chop it's head off, I'm thinking I might wanna just crawl on dudes forever.
What vocation should I aim for to be a "mount beasts and slay them" type?
I reached out on that issue and it would take a sizable amount of work to get working on DX9 games it currently doesn't. With PC gaming already moving on to DX12, doesn't seem worth the effort. Especially when there are already options for texture mods on MY Framework games, tho less elegant.
Update GeDoSaTo. There was a bug that made key presses not get read, but Durante fixed it.

Your pawns will stay with you always unless you dismiss them in the Rift.
There's a passive skill you can learn later on that gives you increased stats if you choose to go at it alone.
Assassin type is actually the best at doing that. You can mount monsters and slay them AND use Magick Arrows as a Magick Archer later on.

Ok this is weird, I am still getting a disk write error from steam after re-downloading the game. I have enough space on my ssd and hdd, and I am installing this on my hdd, so space is not an issue on either drive. I have verified that there is no errors on my drives too. This is really strange.
