Marvel’s Midnight Suns: Disable 2K Launcher (improves performance)

0
Locate MAIN executable
Right click on the Midnight Suns entry in your Steam Library and pick Properties.


Go to LOCAL FILES and then click BROWSE

You are now in the Midnight Suns Steam folder. Find the MAIN executable (known as ‘MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe’). The pathway is as follows:
– MidnightSuns folder
– Binaries folder
– Win64 folder

Now that you have located the MAIN executable, COPY THE PATH TO THE FILE. It will look something like this (your hard drive and Steam folder name will vary)

Examples:
“D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns\Binaries\Win64\MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe”

“E:\Steam Folder\steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns\Binaries\Win64\MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe”

Edit Launch Options
Right click on the Midnight Suns entry in your Steam Library and pick Properties.


Under the General Tab, find the LAUNCH OPTIONS field.


In the empty field put the path to the MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe on your system. Make sure it is in quotes and then at the end, add a space and add %command%

2 Examples of what this will look like:

“D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns\Binaries\Win64\MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe” %command%

“E:\Steam Folder\steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns\Binaries\Win64\MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe” %command%

Close the Properties field, and you are done 🙂

The game apparently gets confused about the path to save files. Especially if you started before removing the launcher and then came back to the game. Or tried using cloud saves. Reports are mixed but, here are some fixes:

If you cant find your saves, chances are the game created another folder, you need to move the files from one to the other

Default Save game data location:
Windows

%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\Saved_Steam_<user-id>\SaveGames

Linux

<Steam-folder>/steamapps/compatdata/368260/pfx/

*on linux: Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/368260/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (368260) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes.

So, as reported by user wyndhambarnhill

There may be two directories.
Go to the steam one and copy the savegame directory to the other one.
Check the content of the directory before, must have one file per save.

For those having problems syncing saves:

For me it created the save location “\Documents\My Games\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\Saved_Steam_[My Steam-ID]”, which it also synced to the Deck. But on the Deck my Steam-ID was empty and it created the folder “Saved_Steam_”, which was not synced.

“Saved_Steam_[My Steam-ID]” kept getting synced, but the game accessed “Saved_Steam_”.

As a work-around I created a symbolic link in \Documents\My Games\Marvel’s Midnight Suns:

ln -s Saved_Steam_[My Steam-ID] Saved_Steam_

Don’t forget to rename/move “Saved_Steam_” before creating the link.

Your antivirus might be the problem, as reported by cvendeen

I resolved the issue by going to virus and ransomware protection and allowing the steamapps/common/Marvel’s Midnight Suns/Midnight Suns/binaries/Win64/MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe application through controlled folder access. I had previously allowed the application in Steamapps\common\Marvel’s Midnight Suns\MidnightSuns.exe access, but that wasn’t the correct executable. I also bypassed the 2k launcher, which may have been confusing the ransomware protection. Now I see a save file folder inside the Saved_Steam_[UserID] folder.
