Where Does Warzone 2100 Store Saves?

Where Warzone 2100 keeps saves and maps on computers, open source RTS. Exact folders are covered below.

Last updated

Warzone 2100 is open RTS with folder state. Your campaign saves live as files in its config directory. Custom maps sit beside them.

Same folder means same warzone anywhere the game runs. Exact file names shift with releases. Keep maps matched during moves. For keeps, copy the config directory whole. Partial copies miss sequences that campaigns depend on. When in doubt, verify paths inside the app before trusting a remembered folder. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Warzone saves to a new computer?

Copy the Warzone 2100 config directory to the new machine over USB. Campaign saves live per profile folders. Match the release first, since save formats shift between versions and refuse old files.

Does Warzone sync online?

No. Warzone reads saves in place from its directory without uploading. The folder holds settings plus custom maps locally. Reinstalls reset nothing if the folder is kept. Treat the config directory itself as the backup.
