Intro

Hello, everyone.

At this point of time, Steam only stores your vaults in the save cloud. Steam does NOT store your Season Pass status and progress on the cloud.

This means that if, for some reason you've lost your local data after buying the season pass, it will revert to it's unbought state after you redownload the game.

This guide will tell you how to enable paid season pass for your game.

Although it is possible to enable Season Pass this way without having ever bought it, this guide condemns such behavior and is made strictly to help those who have previously bought it.

Guide should be followed with the game closed.

Guide

Step 1:
Find your save folder. It can be found at
%localappdata%/FalloutShelter/
You can copy-paste the line into your explorer and press enter to get to the target folder.

Step 2:
Go to a save decryption site. Here's one such site [fossd.netlify.app], although there are several.

Step 3:
Grab a file named
spd.dat
from your save folder and drop it into the "Decrypt Save" field. Ignore that the field asks for a .sav file.
Important! You need a file named "spd" with an extension "dat". There are two "spd" files in the folder : spd.dat and spd.dat.bkp. If you don't have "show file extensions" enabled, they appear as just "spd" and "spd.dat" - in this case, just "spd" is the one you need!
I strongly suggest you keep a backup somewhere in case you break anything. Following the guide exactly should be absolutely safe.
It will prompt you to download a file with the same name and file type - this one is different, it is now decrypted. Save it. Step 4:
Get the file you downloaded and open it with a text editor of your choice. A common one would be Notepad, but I recommend Notepad++ or VisualStudioCode for it's format readability and easy line count.
Find the part with the current seasons info. It's the block "NewVegasA_26_07" under "seasonsData", should be around lines 2700.
Right there you shall find
"isPremium": false,
Change "false" to "true". Keep the comma.
Save the changes to your file.
You have now enabled the Season Pass for your game! Step 4.5:
Enabling the premium pass and getting the extra items.
In the same place, "NewVegasA_26_07" under "seasonsData", you shall find a line that says
"isPremiumPlus": false,
change "false" to "true". At the very beginning of the file find the line that says
"SeasonPassLunchboxClaims": []
Copy-and-paste the following. It will make it take up several lines.
"SeasonPassLunchboxClaims": [ { "ID": "NewVegasA", "Premium": true, "PremiumPlus": true }, { "ID": "NewVegasB", "Premium": true, "PremiumPlus": true }, { "ID": "UltraciteFever", "Premium": true, "PremiumPlus": true }, { "ID": "Enclave", "Premium": true, "PremiumPlus": true }, { "ID": "Institute", "Premium": true, "PremiumPlus": true }, { "ID": "NewVegasA_26_07", "Premium": true, "PremiumPlus": true } ]

Save your changes. This should give you the extra rewards from all seasons.
Upon loading a save the info will be added to your savefile and you'll get lunchboxes with all the extra items.

Step 5:
Drop the edited file into the editor's "Encrypt Save" field. Ignore that it asks for a .json file.
It will prompt you to download a file with the same name and file type - this one is different, it is now encrypted again. Save it.

Step 6:
Put the file you just downloaded into your local save folder that we opened in the beginning of the guide. Replace the one in there when prompted.

Step 7:
Open your game! You should now have the paid Season Pass line unlocked, just as you did when you legally bought it.

If you've previously made any progress on the season pass, you can restore the progress by finding the line that says "currentTokens" and changing the value when editing the decrypted file.
