Questions about save editing, etc
Hey folks!

With all the neat advances you folks have made on tweaking this game, I was wondering a few things. Firstly, when save-editing, is it still necessarily to desync Steam Cloud, so your edited file doesn't hit their servers and raise eyebrows? I guess to ask another way, I remember a year or so ago you could download god-saves and play with those, and so long as you had Steam Cloud off the internal servers wouldn't 'notice'.

With as much as the game has expanded since I played regularly in 2016, it has been *enormously* frustrating trying to RNG the build I'm wanting. For instance, my Nea has like five perks level-ups to gain for the build I'm wanting, but they haven't shown up on the web in about 15 levels. And god help me if I want to throw dozens more hours into the RNG for another character. For these reasons, I'm interested in either updated god-save files or backing up and editing my own.
Save files are now stored on their server end. The current method pulls the save, you edit it and inject it back. If I am wrong people can correct me on that but I am pretty sure that's how it works. You can replace the contents of your save with contents of a god save(don't forget to change ID) or edit your own.
How much risk of detection or ban is there? I see the EAC Bypass thread, is that just for injecting or is that necessary anytime you run the game with hacked info?
Just for injecting. You should be safe unless you make your profile too obvious you hacked it. ie: 1000 of every item or so on lol
Much appreciated! Really I'm just aiming to outfit a few characters with decent perk sets, nothing outlandish, so that's good to know.

This may not be the exact right place for it, but I am confused on how to use the Save Editor - Cloud Edition. I have my local save file handy but it's not in a format the editor will recognize, and I didn't see a guide on using it in the thread (at least the first couple pages?).
Forget about the local file you have on your computer. Bypass EAC using this : https://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1301975 or https://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1337467

Then you need this to extract your file from their servers : https://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1331827

And use the editor: https://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1331907 and using the extractor also to inject back to them. Just read the instructions in each thread.
Aha! CloudExtract was the tool I was missing. Thanks a bunch!
