dude, game is still being worked on, so WHY would the beginning changing somehow NOT require a new save??? makes perfect sense to me that with new VERY drastic updates it would require a NEW save file...."No previous save file will work anymore after this update!"... oh boy, here we go again ...
you are in the right (it will be more or less end of next month )
I hope this is the last time but I realized that in many places animations were missing and then I wanted to improve the first chapter (having done it a year ago it seemed dated compared to the rest)"No previous save file will work anymore after this update!"
the only one that i notice doing it often, does minor updates like every 3 days or so......it would be like every update you've done lately (0.8.03-0.8.13 or so) like that size. big major updates (like you are planning w/ next chapter) would take like a month or so....
There's a lot of people here who for the sake of all of us should only play games marked "COMPLETED"
There's nothing wrong with that. Just complaining about beta woes in work in progress games is a waste of time and bandwidth. Finished game that loses saves, big deal, work in progress game that loses save compatibility... That's uh part of being a work in progress. Hell BG3 ganked my saves like 6 times during early access.
i agree wholeheartedly. i've lost count of how many "in development" game saves have lost compatibility between updates! THAT'S why i prefer "completed" games........of course, i've currently got like 10-12 "in development" games on my hard drive........i'll probably never learn my lesson.....
just wondering, anyone know where the saves are supposed to be? there's no way i can see in game to delete saves....my save files are a mess...
oh, the dev i mentioned also split his games on Steam- standard branch, beta branch, and development branch....
You can find them, where you have the .exe, in the "game" folder and then you should see a folder with the name "saves". But you should delete the backup that does Ren'py too if you really be sure of delete all your saves (C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\RenPy). And once there you should search the name of the game and inside of that you find the other saves.
