Hi there, i wonder how does a RPGMV game recognize its Save file?
I had saved my game, then change the project title, some system terms, some items, and then tried to load the old save file before.
It loaded just very fine... well, so?
What does a RPGMV game check to know if a Save file is its or not?

Unless this was changed recently, it actually doesn't. If you copy the save file from one game into another game's folder (or if you're playing in a browser where you've played another MV game before), the game will just try to load it. It will only crash if the save file has something that the game you're loading doesn't have: an invalid map number, an invalid character number or something like that.

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
