  2. Locate your save file. Navigate to your user’s library folder, i.e., Mac HD/Users/John/Library. Sometimes the Library folder is hidden. Press “Shift” + “CMD” + “.”. This command shows hidden folders.Then under library, find Application Support/com.OldWorldStudios.RiddleoftheSphinx-TheAwakening/autosave.txt.Note: if you bought the game through GOG, the folder is named “com.OldWorldStudios.ROTS-GOG”, or on Mac app store, the folder is named “com.OldWorldStudios.ROTS-HD-MacOS”
  3. Open the autosave.txt file in TextEdit.
  4. Search the autosave.txt file for “AutoRetrievalActive”, and change the “false” value too “true”. You can search the file by pressing “CMD” + “f”.
  5. Search the autosave.txt file for “AutoRetrievalTimeRemaining”, and change the “420.0” value to “400.0”.
  6. Search the autosave.txt file for “PYRShaftDoorOpen”, and change the “false” value too “true”.
  7. Search the autosave.txt file for “PYRKingsBlockCocked”, and change the “false” value to “true”.
  8. Search the autosave.txt file for “PYRNicheOpen”, and change the “false” value to “true”.
  9. Save the file, and launch the game. The robot puzzle will be completely bypassed.
