Could anyone please help me locate save files for this game?
Posted February 06, 2018
I'm not 100% sure on other OSs, but on Linux it's stored within the game folder itself. More specifically in:

./game/data

It was a bit annoying to setup the game to be shared among among multiple users on my network while not having shared saves due to that.

Ugh, they do the same thing on Mac as well. Right click on Iconoclasts.app, "show package contents". It's in Contents/Resources/Data/save1, save2 etc. No wonder there's no cloud save support. It's a miracle that game developers get anything to compile at all.

This is great, it means I can format my Windows partition and reinstall Windows without losing my Iconoclast save game data. (My games aren't installed to the Windows partition)

At the very least, you gotta admit this is better than some location in AppData right?

I took the time to create a script to make up for the lack of user-specific save directories, since my desktops tend to be used by my family as well. I made this for my Linux setup. Just paste this into an empty file in the same directory as Iconoclasts's startup script (start.sh) and use it to start the game instead (if you use a .desktop shortcut, just point it to the new script).

#!/bin/bash

if [ ! -d ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts ]; then

cd "$(dirname "$0")"

mkdir ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/support ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/gameinfo ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/

mkdir ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/bin32 ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/bin64 ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/Assets.dat ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/gamecontrollerdb.txt ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/

mkdir ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/lang ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/lvl ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/music ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/scene ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/dia ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/diafra ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/diager ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/diajap ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

ln -s "$(realpath .)"/game/data/diaspa ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/data/

cp "$(realpath .)"/game/run.sh ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/game/

cp "$(realpath .)"/start.sh ~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/

fi

~/.local/share/Iconoclasts/start.sh
Nothing complicated, but I figured I might as well post it just in case it saves someone a bit of leg work. Make sure the script and everything else is readable by other users.

EDIT: Apparently the site doesn't accept [code][/code].
