Ultimate Save File Collection

I've tried to make what I think is the best collection of Save Files for Crash Bandicoot 4. Download these and you can start various practice sessions or speedruns almost right away.

Contents

• !3S - No Triple Spin - A save file where all base levels and bosses are complete except for the final boss so you can use this to practice any level where you don't want triple spin getting in your way. No clear gems or color gems have been collected.
• !PR - No Perfect Relics - All clear gems have been collected. The final boss hasn't been beat so there is no triple spin. Not sure there is much use, but I've included it for completeness.
• TPS - All Tapes - All tapes have been collected, but nothing else. No triple spin either. Use this is you want to meme-run tapes without triple spin, or beat the boss real quick and have a clean save file to run tapes with triple spin.
• NG! - New Game Plus - All levels (including timeline levels) have been completed, but short of the mandatory flashback tape in Crash Compactor, no tapes have been collected and no gems have been collected. The final boss has been beat, so triple spin is available.

Installation

1. Hit Windows-R to bring up the Run dialog box.
2. Enter %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashBandicoot4\Saved and hit Enter/Return
3. Save your SaveGames folder (either rename it or compress it to a zip file for later unpacking)
4. Unzip the contents of the Ultimate Collection zip file so that SaveGames is in the Saved folder. You'll need to rename the folder to remove "Ultimate Collection" obviously.
5. There is no need to renumber the file names. The game will apparently do that automatically for you.

FAQ

• Q: Can I just copy one save file? A: Technically yes, but it takes a lot of manual editing of the ProfileSaveData.sav file and that is too much to cover here. Best just to swap the entire collection around whenever you need to start with these Save Files.
• Q: Why didn't you beat the final boss. Skill Issue? A: With only 4 Save Slots available, I figured it would be best to have save files without triple spin knowing that it just takes a couple of minutes to beat the final boss if that is what you really want.
• Q: Why no 106 save file? A: I could if that is really needed, but I honestly don't see the need for it.
• Q: Can you do another save for the fourth slot? A: I ended up putting a NG+ save file in that slot. Is that good enough for you? If not, let me know.
