In Batman: Arkham Asylum for Windows Live, how do I get back to offline profile?

Question

I have been playing this game to around 50% when I got this stupid idea: why not create a GFWL account.

Now all my save game slots are empty and I can't manage to get my previous save game.

I've tried to copy/paste my old save game but the game told me that it is corrupted...

Is there a way to get back to the good old offline mode and continue my adventure ?

If not, does the same thing will happend to my other GFWL games ?

Answer 1

I recently had to move my save games around and here is what worked for me:

1. Create a new game and make sure that it autosaves (this happens as soon as the first cut scene is over)
2. Exit the game completely - this is important because if you don't it will still try to access the old game.
3. Navigate to the save folder - probably something like 'Eidos/Batman Arkham Asylum/SaveData/019243000000/' <- the last folder will be different but you get the point
4. You'll see a save0.sgd file in that folder. Replace that with your actual save file (you may have to rename your save to save0.sgd) - the file size is usually about 60kb or so.
5. Restart the game.

Hopefully this will work for you.
