How to recomple rb to rvdata2

[LueLusten]

OK I was able to find a means to save the scripts to rb files, but this is only the scripts how would I do this for the database also?

I want to create a online database for my game where the launcher it will check for the update and pass it to the game, I don't want to include two of the same file each time in the engine, I want over ride the old one with the new scripts and DB

I need a means at the moment to repack the scripts to the rvdata2 this also I need a way to pack and unpack the save.

Use Marshal.dump and Marshal.load

For more details look at how the Default Scripts make savefiles and load them.

What file will they be hiding in do you know

DataManager module, towards the top in the default script list.

I will give that one a look but don't the save option get the detail from a table not from a file? as I will have my own tool create the rb file for game maker to edit on load.

When saving, the DataManager builds a Hash where it stores game data under specific symbols variables -> $game_variables, :actors -> $game_actors, etc). That Hash is then serialized and written to a file.

I am not sure where you moved it from but I am sure it was in a scripting section but if its in the wrong place sorry.

The scripts are under the Scripts.rvdata2 are not called by that file, isn't that file in the Scripts.rvdata2? I want to be able to 

call the files myself the rb files or recomplie the rvdata2, where is the Scripts.rvdata2 called.

The files in your "Data" folder are probably loaded by the Game.exe, since their contents don't change between saves. The DataManager only deals with savefiles, that is data that can and will change while you are playing.

The script call used for loading the .rvdata2 script files is load_data; as it says in the help file, this is essentially the equivalent of

File.open(filename, "rb") { |f|  obj = Marshal.load(f)}

I know the game or the one of the other scripts call it but I need to have the exe not to load the rvdata2 versions but the rb versions, I am thinking of controlling 

the game versions fixs and database via online means,

I understand that already lol Getting my head around another scripting language what to me makes no logical sense tho is doing my nut in
