Is there a common practice for preserving save files after completing the S.T.E.P. process in case one must re-install or upgrade to the the newer Special Edition? I've been googling like mad, but the information is scattered and confusing. I would hate to lose 120 hrs of progress in case I needed to switch computers, or simply update my existing S.T.E.P. installation now that I'm running a more current video card. Is it simply a matter of uninstalling mods, creating a save, and then starting fresh with a new install? Must I make an exact log of each mod, re-install them, and then abandon any mod not compatible with the Special Edition and hope for the best?
