extract the files in to your renpy save folder which is found inside the folder named game. Example i play Alexander ,So locate folder named Alexander open it locate folder named game open it ,Locate folder named save open it , cut and paste your Zip file into save then extract ,If after unzipping it creates a new folder open that, then copy or cut the contents of that folder and paste it into your save folder . Hope this Helps

Your file 1212101_1-1-LT1 is your save file. Rename it to 1-1-LT1.save and it should work.

What you see inside (extra_info, json...) are the classic content of a renpy save file.

I always forget about this crazy (stupid?) option... Never mask the extension! First because it is dangerous, second because it avoids this kind of problem.

Nice one scrumbles !

thats what i did still didn't show up
Did you put it in the "[path to game]/game/saves folder" ?
Did the name is "x-y-LT1.save" (with both "x" and "y" being numbers ?
Did you look at the correct load page (the "x" from above) ?
