memesoftheyear21 1 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 So today I was trying to load a backup savefile cause i needed to do something, but when i go to the file area where all the backup save files are, I try to open them but it opens up with notepad. I just want to load my old savefile but it wont let me. Any fix to this? Oh and if I try too change the app the files open with, it gives me an error message. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You have to rename one of them to game.rxdata .rxdata is an autoextention You cannot open then with anything other then rpgmaker You could try game_2.rxdata or any numbered on like that as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
memesoftheyear21 1 Posted June 12 Author Share Posted June 12 k sorry for the late reply, but i'll try this. Thank you! i tried to rename the backup savefile game.rxdata but it didn't work. here is a screenshot of my files here. The one named game.rxdata is one of the backup save files i wanted to turn into my main savefile. https://gyazo.com/b37ad5c6696f1b919633bd6c08c3015f I also tried to put a number there, nothing changed. 1 hour ago, Starry Knight said: You have to rename one of them to game.rxdata .rxdata is an autoextention You cannot open then with anything other then rpgmaker You could try game_2.rxdata or any numbered on like that as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, that's a game_2.rxdata file not a game.rxdata one, it happens when you have a save file active and click in "new game", reborn allows you to have multiple saves without having to mess around with files. just change from game.rxdata to game_2.rxdata or go into your game and click in "other save files". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I now just dont see a save file anymore. Tried moving them back nothing. So I think the save file just deleted itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
