I don't have Steam Cloud enabled, but I have to have internet to load my games.

Won't Fix

I shouldn't have to have internet in order to play my saved games which should be on my local machine. I know some saved games are on the Steam Cloud, but I checked and mine is disabled. I would like technical support to convert my save file if it's needed. I would've included it but I can't compress it down enough to include it.

Hello, David!

Sorry to hear you're experiencing issues. Disabling Steam cloud doesn't disable access to your local saves.

What may be happening with you, is that saves are in different folders. In your roaming file, there should be a folder with your Steam ID and also one that is 12345678910 (this one stores saves that were created when Steam is offline) Could you move your saves from the one folder to the "offline" folder? You should then be able to launch these as long as the folder has been created :)

Please let me know how this works for you.

Kind Regards

Hi, Laura!


Thank you for getting back to me. I tried moving my saves around to different folders with different connections and here's what I came up with.


  • 12345678910 (I created) Offline didn't work, online didn't work.
  • 1234567891011 (Naturally there) Offline didn't work, online didn't work.
  • *steamid* (Naturally there, where files originally were) Offline didn't work, online did work.

The only one working was the Steam ID while online.


Thank you so much for getting back to me, I hope this helps

Hello, David!

Thank you for the update. I have just tried this again by disabling the Cloud and also disconnecting the ethernet and can still access my saves.

Could you please try the following? The aim would be to backup the roaming files and then move the old files to the newly created 1234567891011 file which hopefully then allows you to access them as intended.

  • Verify your game files in Steam

  • Right click on Space Engineers in Steam Library → Properties → Local Files → Verify Integrity of Game Files

/bfSnH0rGoN-NgctSWBJN3LfvWZvgnfye9BrPgucxV0n8TDpNc-7yZYwSifdRXyl1quu20KGUNmHzSf6VGRbhWS4a_EYn2MclxJSOz6eVarmz-fhTWVaofVOAVZN_l_leF9dgQ5GF

  • Delete SpaceEngineers.cfg file

  • It means your game configuration will be deleted
  • You can access your SpaceEngineers.cfg by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.

  • Delete ShaderCache folder

  • Back up your whole Space Engineers Roaming folder and delete it
  • Restart Steam
  • Reinstall the game

Kind Regards

Hello, Engineer!


Because there is no new comment from you, and we are unable to reproduce the issue on our own, I will close this thread now as outdated.


If you or any other player will experience this issue again, please make a new thread and provide all needed info there.


Thank you for understanding.
