Before applying any fix, locate your save file (typically found in your Steam userdata folder under 323470\remote\DBXV21\DBXV2.sav ) and create a copy.
After official game updates, these files are often used to "repair" a modded installation so it remains compatible with tools like the Xenoverse 2 Patcher . General Installation Instructions
Many "Steamworks" or "Generic" fixes allow users to access online features by bypassing or repairing the connection between the game and the Steam client.
Some repair files are used to disable or bypass Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) , which is a necessary step for installing mods .
Depending on the fix, you may need to launch the game directly from the DBXV2.exe in the bin folder rather than through the Steam "Play" button. Important Considerations
