Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition uses a different save structure than the original 2012 release. Steam stores Definitive Edition save files within its `userdata` system under Steam App ID `307690`, whereas the original release used App ID `202170`. Mixing save files between original and Definitive Edition releases results in unreadable save slots. Files take names like `HK SaveData` or `DisplaySettings`. Steam Cloud automatically backs up these save slots, which will overwrite manual file swaps on boot if active. Turn off Steam Cloud in your game properties before copying replacement files into place. Account-binding restrictions are absent, allowing simple save file transfers between Steam profiles.
Important Safety & Backup Advice
Copy your active `remote` folder inside `307690` to your desktop before overwriting files. If your game fails to load the new save file, restore your desktop backup. Steam Cloud will replace manual file transfers if left active, so disable cloud sync options in Steam settings before swapping data. Single-player save file replacements carry zero anti-cheat ban risk. Visual reshades or graphics tweaks work alongside save files without issues.
Common Questions & Answers
Does this save file work with both original Sleeping Dogs and Definitive Edition?
No, this save is strictly for Definitive Edition (App ID `307690`). The 2012 base game uses App ID `202170`.
Why does the game load my old save instead of the 100% save file?
Steam Cloud likely restored your old file on boot. Disable Steam Cloud, re-paste `HK SaveData`, and run the game.
Summary
Loading a 100% complete save grants Wei Shen max level combat stats, all Martial Arts combos, full outfits, unlocked supercars, and completed DLC campaigns across Hong Kong. It removes the necessity of collectible hunting while keeping all high-end vehicles ready in your garage. Make sure Steam Cloud sync stays turned off during file transfers, and place replacement files into your unique Steam ID folder under App ID `307690`. Store a backup copy of your original `remote` folder on your desktop prior to making edits. Open your Steam `userdata` directory right now to copy your original saves to safety.
