NO SAVES SHOW UP IN MYIMPORT CHARACTER SECTION IN THE MAIN MENU, AM I JUST MISSING SOMETHING??

[Forsakerr]

same thing happening to me , when i choose import ME1 character no characters show , im on vista btw

[Eurypterid]

It's not very intuitive, but here's what you do:



You have to run the Configuration utility. When you start the game, don't hit Play. Instead, choose Configure. When the utility comes up, click on the Save Games tab. Click the 'Copy Mass Effect 1 Save Games' button. Navigate to the ME1 save folder in the popup window. For XP that's My Documents-> BioWare -> Mass Effect -> Save (I don't know where Vista or 7 puts it). Choose the Save folder and click on Okay. Nothing will seem to happen, but that will import it to your ME2 game. Fire up the game, hit Play, and you should be able to choose your old character.

Thanks, man!

It really helped me :-)

What if just one of your old shepards isn't showing up? I had 3 Shepards that had all completed at least one playthrough. Two of them I was able to import just fine. The other won't show up. All the saves were in the same directory but it doesn't appear that the Char_.... file for the one that won't import.



Can anyone help? The missing one is my only renegade. I miss her! lol

I have the Xbox360 version and it let me choose my level 41 character and it listed but would not let me choose by level 51 character. Will O have to replay ending of ME1?

[Thaxxlssilya]

You need to have completed ME1 to be able to import your charcter into ME2.

[Xiver]

Thanks for the info. I was able to import my saved game after I read your post.

i have done that. I even went back and beat Sovereign again from one of my old saves. And I restarted w/a new game plus. But my Michelle Shepard still isn't there. My two other Shepards are, though. i don't get it.

Had the exact same problem. Replaying the ending didn't solve it for me. My lone renegade Shepard is still MIA.

I don't know if this matters, but I think my lvl 41 Shep didn't plat the any of the DLC, but my lvl 51 did the Bring down the Sky

[Funky_frankie_1]

I think that might be the problem, my imported character didn't do bring down the sky but the other one I have did and the character's name appears in teal color, I can't select it.

... use the d pad, not the analog stick, to select the character... jeez, the damn programmer who created the import utility did it on purpose.

GODS BLESS YOU!
I wasted a lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong with the save game I wanted to select, but couldn't!  D-pad worked!

On PC, you need to have a files with a name like this (located on my documents... saves) :
Char_01-54-2-1-0-29-1-2010-22-33.MassEffectSave
Sometimes you don't have it (i didn't have any for my 5-6 characters, don't know why). Even on genuine version of the game (mine is).
If you don't, so you need to fight the final boss again. Just load the latest save (should be an autosave). The file will be created when you finish the game again

This fix did not work for me. I loaded my last save, beat Sovereign again and my Char_.... file still did not generate for this Shepard. This worked for you, daguest? Where did you start from?

Frustrating.

I opened up the Configuration Utility but I couldn't see the Save Game Tab
I've got Vista

[TylenolJones]

I opened the configure tool and I to have no "Save Game" Tab <----XP Professional. I just barely killed Sovereign last night and I cannot import her over to ME2. She is a renegade Biotic.

Poorly worded on my part. There's a Save Games option on the left side of the Utility window. There are two small panes on the left side. Upper one is labelled Mass Effect 2 and the lower one is labelled System. Save Games is the bottom of the list in the Mass Effect 2 pane.

Hehe, yeah sorry about that, I was being slightely retarded and was looking at the ME1 Configure option. Thanks for your help.

[raskyred]

I was confused too when I first did it because through the configuration utility none of my savegames showed up (my ME game is through Steam; ME2 is retail). I just scrolled to the Bioware/Mass Effect / save folder and clicked okay even though nothing appeared and it managed to import the save fine.

Now I would be nervous if I had multiple character profiles....

(also did not download or play any of the DLC, just Mass Effect Vanilla through steam)

Repeating my OP, in hopes that someone has encountered this and has a fix.

Is that save in your ME1 Save folder? (I know it's a dumb question, but just getting the basics out of the way). If so, try copying the save file directly into the ME1 Save folder in your ME2 game. See if that works.
