Before you update

  • Your settings, your vault and your saves are kept when you update. A vault from v0.3.0 or
    v0.3.1 opens as it is, nothing to upgrade.

What is new

Search (Organizer tab, Search...)

  • Finds text anywhere in the vault: save file names, notes, labels and comments, and what the
    saves hold - bases and the galaxy each one is in, ships, archived ships, companions, the
    freighter, multi-tools, settlements, expeditions, the current galaxy.
  • In: narrows it to one field. Pick Base galaxy and type a galaxy name to see which
    save files have bases there; with a field picked and nothing typed, it lists all of them.
  • Each result says where to look - a live slot such as S9 or X4, else Vault -
    and which versions it is in. Double-click a result to show it in the table.
  • Bases, ships and the like come from the content index. A version it has not read yet is not
    searched for them, and the window says how many those are.

Compare from the table

  • Open a save file, Ctrl+click two of its versions, press Compare... in the toolbar.

Back up all live folders now (File menu)

  • Backs up every live folder - Steam, GOG, Xbox - in one go, each under a dated label, no
    questions. A folder without saves is skipped; if one fails, the others are still backed up
    and the result says which.

Downloads

  • Windows: NMSSaveVault-Setup-v0.3.2.zip - extract it and run NMSSaveVault.exe (or
    install.bat for shortcuts). The launcher is the Python Software Foundation's own signed
    program, renamed; that signature is Python's, not a signature over this app.
  • Linux / Steam Deck (x86_64): NMSSaveVault-v0.3.2-linux-x86_64.tar.gz - still young, so
    back up your saves by hand first.
  • macOS (Apple Silicon): NMSSaveVault-v0.3.2-macos-arm64.tar.gz - never run on a Mac yet.
    Back up your saves by hand first, and please report how it went.
  • Xbox / Game Pass and GOG stay Windows-only.
