Question
It seems that, unlike the first game, Mass Effect 2 (inexplicably) has a save limit. I currently have 50 full save slots and the game will not let me make any others. In ME1, there was a PC tweak where you could edit a .ini file in order to increase the number of allowed saves. However, I can't find anything in the ME2 PC tweaks that will let you do the same, maybe because the configuration files are in a different format for this game.
Is there any way for me to increase the number of allowed saves without endangering my save file(s) for import to ME3?
Answer
Well, hopefully you'll find a better answer, but one workaround is to simply back up some of your older saves to another directory.
On Windows 7, my saves are stored in
C:\Users\MyUserName\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 2\Save\John_12_Soldier_260110
That last bit differs on a character-by-character basis. You could grab the .pcsav files from there and move them to a backup directory. Now you've got some archived saves and free slots. If you want to restore them later, you just drop them back in (though you probably need to make sure you aren't bringing the total over 50 if you do).
