Can't save while using mod

[Pulseman]

the version I'm using is 2.2 when I was using espio character mod I tried to start a new file and got a message saying "This cannot be done in a modified game". Do all mods normally prevent you from starting a new save file or is it just the I used mod specifically?

Generally yes, all the mods that you use in the game marks SRB2 as modified game. This is for prevent getting emblems or extras with mods, you NEED to beat the game without modifying. But this can also be avoided using a Custom Gamedata being in MB

Where is the SRB2 save data stored on the hard drive?

Where is the SRB2 save data stored on the hard drive?

In the folder where SRB2 is located. The files are gamedata.dat and srb2sav[X].ssg.

Where is the SRB2 save data stored on the hard drive?

In the same folder as srb2win.exe.

gamedata.dat is a global save, and stores stuff like emblems collected.
srb2sav#.ssg is a session save, and stores stuff like the character you were playing as, the last map you reached, lives and such. You select one of these when you enter the 1 Player > Start Game menu.

My bad guys I was miss reading the instructions, I thought I needed to swap out the original save file with the custom one. I was able to save the game of the modded character, so I greatly appreciate everyone's help.

I have the same question but all the save files I already had, just disappeared (for the 2nd time) so I downloaded a save file to use in its place. I dont have the original saves. So the save files in there are the ones I downloaded. When i try use an addon the game says it wont save any progress bercause game is modded.Please help!
