Kurotsune Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Hi guys! Quick announcement here. Remember the save backup system? Well, don't think we haven't paid attention to your pleas of means to control it! in fact, I've nothing else to do in this thread than to let you know E16 will be shipping not with one, but with two different ways of controlling the backup system - Both should be very self-explanatory: The first option controls whether or not the system will work at all. Turn it off, and no more save backups will be created. The second option controls the maximum amount of backups in your folder at a time. The default number is 50, and it'll go as high as 100, and as low as 1. We've worked around the clock to guarantee these two implementations are 100% functional and will not conflict with the existing savefiles. The only complication here is the following: For the new-new save system to work, the backup counter needed to be reset to 0, so when you start e15 you'll notice the first backup made has 1 as it's counter, the second has 2, and so on, instead of the previous number. This will not affect your existing backups in any way, but you'll have to delete them manually. And as a side note, I personally suggest keeping at the very least ten backups at a time, since we've seen corruption go back to as many as 2~3 files in a row. That's it. Thanks for your time!

Kurotsune Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 Too much of anything is bad for you. Is too much of not having too much of anything bad for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peepeepoopoo Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Is too much of not having too much of anything bad for you? Yes, because if you have too much of not having too much of anything, you may as well not have anything at all. And of course we know having nothing is bad for you.

Arkhi Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I think we've reached the point of no return regarding the point of this thread, but... Too much love will kill you. Does the current Save File backup store up to 100 or indefinitely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the current Save File backup store up to 100 or indefinitely? I think it's probably 100, I haven't played in a while but when I made my videos there wouldn't be ones from the dead start to where I currently was.

Jaromir Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Too much relevance in the comments. I love the Max Backup Number option. With the amount of saves I make, my folder gets filled up rather quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurotsune Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 The current save backup has no limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickCrash Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 So after the landmark of 100 saves is reached, it just means that the older ones get deleted as you make new ones, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you reach save 101, save 1 gets deleted. So on and so forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
