Deployed Game can't save (PC)

[VesperCire]

I sent my game to one of my friends, but he says that he can't save. There's no error, just it jumps back to the save slot selection. He's doing this on PC, and the only plug in that I had that should be doing anything with saves is Yanfly's Save Core. Any help?

case 1:
If you encapsuled the game, then you need to create the save path folders before that - because the computer will not get permission to create the save folders inside an encapsuled program (which is something he would do automatically without encapsulation)

case 2:
depending on how you configured yanflys save core, it might need the correct path created as well. that completely depends on configuration of the plugin however, it does give additional options after all.

case 3:
your friend stored the game into a folder with special functions. That might restrict permissions even if neither of you did anything else.But it completely depends on what that path is and you would have to ask him for that.

case 4:
there is an old problem that prevented saves on maps with looping animations. It should be solved by now, but if you had an old project and never updated it it might still have that problem.

I've tried solving those four cases, but nothing came from it. If it helps, this is exactly what he said:

basically what happens is i toggle the save button and it just sends me back to the save slot buttons without saving

it doesnt save when i press space on the save button
it just jumps back to the save slot button

Also, he's tried using Space, ENTER, Z and clicking on it and they all failed.

That info from your friend doesn't help at all, because it only tells us that there was an error.
That is why I listed the possibilities - and you were meant to report back what of those were the cases.

for example in case 1 we need to know what you have done to deploy - the exact steps because there are several ways to deploy. For case two - that can only be solved if you know exactly what each configuration does, and if there are options that you are unsure off we need a screenshot of your configuration to check it.
for case 3 the only way to solve it is if you place the full folderpath where your friend stored the game here, only then we can tell you if he made a mistake.
