Can I reset my game in Genocide In Undertale?
Solution 1:
If you want to restart fresh without a genocide then follow these steps.
Windows Users:
- Exit Steam
- Go to the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata*Whatever number your user ID is*\391540\remote"
- Open "system_information_962" or "system_information_963" in "Notepad", delete everything in it, save and quit.
- Delete "remotecache.vdf" from the "391540" folder
- Start up Steam and Undertale. If a "Cloud Sync Conflict" window appears, you've done everything right so far.
- While the "Cloud Sync Conflict" window is open, delete everything in the 391540 folder.
- Click "Upload to the Steam Cloud" in the "Cloud Sync Conflict" Window. This will automatically start Undertale.
- While Undertale is open, go into Steam right click on the Undertale application and go to "Properties".
- Go to the "Updates" tab and uncheck "Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for Undertale".
- Exit Undertale and Steam.
- Delete the "391540" Folder. Now, the tainted files are removed from your steam cloud, but there's one more file to delete.
- Open the start menu and type "Run" into the search bar and open "Run".
- Type "%appdata%" into Run and hit enter. This open the "Roaming" folder in "Appdata"
- Back out of "Roaming" into the Appdata folder, then open the "Local" folder.
- Find and open the "Undertale" folder and delete "system_information_962" or "system_information_963" from that folder.
- Open up Steam and Undertale and the game will have completely reset!
Mac users:
- Go to go to folder and type ~/Library/Application Support/Steam in the box
- Userdata and you see some numbers, click on it, its different for everybody
- Then click on 391540
- Then click on remote
- Then open system information 962 with TextEdit and delete everything in it
- Delete remotecache.vdf
- Open Steam and Undertale And if you did right you will see Steam cloud open keep steam cloud open
- Delete Remote and remotecache.vdf
- Click on upload to the steam cloud
- In steam, right click Undertale click on properties Click on updates and disable steam cloud
- Close out of steam
- Delete 391540
- Go to go to folder And type ~/Library/Application Support/com.tobyfox.undertale/ in the box
- Delete system information 962 and if you see it delete system information 963
- Enable steam cloud
Solution 2:
But the game is all about Genocide runs. To make you feel bad about destroying the world, and to show you that some actions have pretty heavy consequences.
There are some methods on the internet that involve manipulating save files or deliberately corrupting save files to fool Steam Cloud sync broken saves. It will also depend on what version you own (GOG, Steam, DRM-Free...). Reinstalling the game and disabling cloud sync(by playing offline) could be an option.
It is also a complicated topic cause that is what this game is about: Showing that not everything in life can be "undone". That is the LESSON!
