Hi Guys,

When I follow procedure for transferring saves from PC to iPad, I can't open the zip archive with BG1EE, as the app does not appear in menu. There are only iOS Files, Documents by Readdle, some other apps but no BG1EE. The same issue I have when I tried to install mods on iOS through instruction from relative discssuion (how to install mods on iOS w/o jailbreak). Does anybody know how to fix it?

I have the latest BG1EE patch and iOS 12.1. It tried to reinstall BG1EE on iPad but it didn't helped.

Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello
    You have done these steps
    * Opened your 00000nnnn-savename folder on pc
    * Select the GAM+SAV, or all files in the folder, and compress them
    * Rename the compressed file so it is called .bg1save
    * Checked the compressed file only contains files including GAM+SAV and no folder is shown
    * Send the compressed file to iOS
    * Made sure the game is installed on iOS
    * Select the file on iOS

    n.b. if your PC hides known file extensions you may have .bg1save.zip instead of .bg1save

    Example
