• Hi, Guest!
    Some images might be missing as we move away from using embedded images, sorry for the mess!
    From now on, you'll be required to use a third party to host images. You can learn how to add images here, and if your thread is missing images you can request them here.
    Do not use Discord to host any images you post, these links expire quickly!
Automatic Backup System

Automatic Backup System v1.0

Pokémon Essentials Version
v18 ➖
My computer crashed two hours ago. Luckily, nothing got corrupt (which can happen when you have RPG Maker open when shutting off your PC!), but it got me thinking. I don't have any backups, and I'm too lazy/forgetful to make them myself.

So that's why I made this script. Once a day, it will make a backup with everything you tell it to. I will likely add more options to this later.

You can tell it to back up these things:
  • MAPS
  • SCRIPTS
  • PBS
  • GRAPHICS_PICTURES
  • GRAPHICS_AUTOTILES
  • GRAPHICS_TILESETS
  • AUDIO_BGM
  • AUDIO_BGS
  • AUDIO_ME
  • AUDIO_SE
  • ICONS (Please read the top of the script for a disclaimer for this option!)

It backs up whenever it detects the last backup was made on a different (earlier!) day.
All files will be stored inside the folder you give it; if you set BACKUP_TO to "Backups", it'll create a new folder in the game folder and call it "Backups". If you give it a full path (C:\Users\....\......, etc.), it'll make a folder there if it doesn't exist and put all files in there.

It will ONLY make backups when you're in Debug mode, as the file system changes whenever a game is encrypted.
