Scapegoat

Save files, accessed through the uplay_r164.dll module, are used to determine for the player which stage of the game they are at. This can mean different things, but in Hyperscape appears to be primarily used to determine whether the player has configured their initial settings, and whether they have accepted the Ubisoft EULA.

It may be of interest to parse these files -- they appear to be quite large for seemingly being used so infrequently.
