Where Are Pocket Mirror Save Files Located?
Where Pocket Mirror keeps saves in Classic versus GoldenerTraum on PC, and why the formats never cross over.
Last updated
Pocket Mirror exists as a VX Ace freeware Classic and an MZ Steam remake with different save layouts. Classic writes numbered rvdata2 files next to the game. GoldenerTraum writes rmmzsave files in a save folder inside the install tree.
Steam Cloud mirrors the remake folder under its own AppID while Classic has no Cloud at all. Proton prefixes mirror the remake tree on Linux. Match the backup to the version before restoring anything. endings unlocked share the slot files per version, so copy the right set.
Where Pocket Mirror stores this, by platform
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pocket Mirror - GoldenerTraum\save
Remake save folder with rmmzsave files inside the install tree. Classic instead writes rvdata2 next to its exe. Cloud covers the remake only.
Frequently asked questions
Do Classic and GoldenerTraum Pocket Mirror share saves?
No. Classic writes rvdata2 files while the remake writes rmmzsave files in a save folder, and neither engine reads the other. Finish each version where you started it. Guides naming one path cover only half the story.
How do I reset the GoldenerTraum gallery?
Delete the contents of the save folder inside the install tree with Cloud paused. The gallery rebuilds from scratch on next launch. Cloud restores deleted files otherwise, so keep it off until the wipe loads.
