Darkest Dungeon Steam Achievement Save File

🎮 **Unlock Steam achievements easily! ** This module provides a series of carefully prepared archive files, allowing you to skip the tedious process and directly challenge specific achievements.

⚠️ **IMPORTANT WARNINGS AND PREPARATION**

Before you begin, be sure to read the following instructions to ensure safe operation:

  • **Back up your saves! ** Please make a complete copy of your original save folder `Steam\userdata\XXXXX\262060`. Need to copy the `remote` folder and `remotecache.vdf` file.
  • **Turn off Steam cloud saving! ** In order to effectively use these save files, **you must** disable the cloud save function of "Darkest Dungeon" in Steam.
  • **At your own risk**: The save system of "Darkest Dungeon" is very complex, and the game will "remember" past saves. Using these files may conflict with your existing archives, preventing you from properly reading old archives. Please use at your own risk.

📂 How to use

  • **Empty the target folder**: First, delete **all contents** in the `Steam\userdata\XXXXX\262060` folder.
  • **Copy archive files**: Copy all the files in the achievement folder you want to the above-mentioned cleared folder.
  • **Pay attention to the archive slots**: In the `remote` folder, there are usually `profile_0` (the first archive slot, the manor is named "darkest one") and `profile_9` (contains the Butcher Arena progress). Most achievement saves use `profile_0`, a few use `profile_1` (the second save slot, the estate is named "Stygian").
  • **Replace one by one**: Before using an achievement folder, you need to **quit the game completely**, replace the files, and then restart the game.

🎯 Archive and achievement corresponding list

Here is a brief description of the archive folders and corresponding achievements:

  • **`0001 - fully upgrade`**
  • **Corresponding achievements**: Restoring the past glory, monastery, tavern, equipment polishing, skill sharpening, good memories, red hook
  • **Description**: This archive has been modified by the editor and has enough resources to upgrade all buildings. The editor used is robojumper's "Darkest Dungeon" save editor, and you need to edit the `persist.estate` file.
  • **`0013 - before swine king`**
  • **Corresponding Achievement**: Dysfunctional, Lone Survivor
  • **Note**: If you subscribe to the "3x9" backpack expansion module, you may directly enter the battle where the Pig King is dead and Wilbur survives after loading. Just keep "skipping turns" until all four heroes are tortured or three members die. Without this mod, you will start from the town screen and you can still choose this mission.
  • **`0018 - before TTFTS` and `0023 - before shrieker`**
  • **Corresponding achievements**: Speechless, Crow Murder
  • **Description**: As the name suggests, you can start the corresponding task directly after loading. For "TTTFS" (that thing from the stars), you can choose missions in the area where it wanders.
  • **`0065 - w91 dismas reynauld`**
  • **Corresponding achievement**: On the ancient road, we found salvation
  • **Instructions**: Just form a team including Leonard and Dismas to start the final mission of conquering the "Heart of Darkness". The achievement will pop up as soon as the mission starts.
  • **`0067 - last ancestor's trinket weald musketball`**

  • **`0081 - caretaker goals occultist and the red hook`**
  • **Corresponding achievement**: Caretaker
  • **Note**: **Remember not to enable the Scarlet Palace DLC**. The final caretaker goal is to get the Occult Scholar to level 6. Red Hook buildings can also be constructed.
  • **`0104 - bef baron`**
  • **Corresponding achievement**: Les Jeux Sont Faits
  • **DESCR …

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
