Where to Find Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes Save Files & Config Settings (PC & Steam Deck)

Windows PC Save File Location (Steam)

(Quick Answer: Press Win + R, type %LOCALAPPDATA%, and look for the CatsWhoPlay folder.)

For players who purchased the game on Steam, the save files are securely hidden within the Windows AppData directory, keeping them separate from your core game installation folder.

The exact Steam file path is:
C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local\CatsWhoPlay\UkrainianWarfare\Saved\SaveGames\

Cómo llegar rápidamente:

1. Pulse el botón Tecla Windows + R to open the Run dialog box.
2. Tipo %localappdata% into the prompt and press Enter.
3. Scroll down and open the folder named CatsWhoPlay, then navigate into UkrainianWarfare.
4. Abra el Guardado folder, then GuardarJuegos. Your .sav campaign files and profile data are located here.
5. Nota: If you cannot see the “AppData” folder manually, open your Windows File Explorer, click the “View” tab at the top, and check the box for “Hidden items”.

Epic Games / Launcher Support Save Location

Porque Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes is not available on Xbox Game Pass, many players utilize alternative storefronts like the Epic Games Store or direct standalone developer launchers.

If you are playing via Epic Games, your save files are still stored locally, but the Warfare engine creates a slightly different directory string to account for Epic’s cloud architecture.

The Epic Games file path is:
C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local\CatsWhoPlay\UkrainianWarfare_Epic\Saved\SaveGames\

If you ever plan to migrate your campaign from Epic Games to Steam, you can safely copy the .sav files from this folder directly into the Steam directory mentioned in the previous section.

Where to Find the Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes Config File (.ini)

If you are trying to manually tweak RTS graphics settings that are missing from the in-game menu (such as disabling Motion Blur, forcing V-Sync off, or altering the maximum camera zoom height), you need to edit the configuration file.

• The Config path is: C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local\CatsWhoPlay\UkrainianWarfare\Config\
• How to Edit: Right-click the settings.ini o GameUserSettings.ini file and select “Open with Notepad”.
• Advertencia: Always make a copy of the .ini file and paste it to your desktop before changing numerical values. Deleting or breaking a line of code can cause the Warfare engine to crash on startup or break unit pathing.

Steam Deck / Linux Save Location

Playing Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes on the go? The Steam Deck uses a compatibility layer called Proton to emulate the Windows file structure. Your save files are buried deep inside the Linux compatdata carpeta.

The Steam Deck file path is:
/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/[Steam App ID]/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/CatsWhoPlay/UkrainianWarfare/Saved/SaveGames/

Tip: You will need to know the specific Steam App ID for the game. You can easily find this multi-digit number by looking at the game’s URL on the official Steam Store website.

Troubleshooting: Steam Cloud Sync Errors

If your Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes save file keeps disappearing or reverting to an older campaign state, Steam Cloud is likely conflicting with your local hard drive files.

1. Right-click Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes in your Steam Library and select Propiedades.
2. Under the General tab, toggle Steam Cloud to OFF.
3. Launch the game, complete a minor tactical objective, force a manual save, and then exit to desktop.
4. You can now safely turn Steam Cloud back on. Steam will detect the conflict and ask which file to keep—choose to upload your newest local save to the servers.
