Save problem after deploying and turning into a single exe with enigma virtual box

[Plueschkatze]

Hello everyone!



I run into a annoying problem with my game...


I deployed it and wanted a single executable .exe for it.


So I checked out SumRndmDde's Tutorial:








And downloaded Enigma virtual box.


The problem is. That I can't save in the .exe that enigma producted.


I can as long at it is still in the deploy folder, but that not what a single executable is for LOL


As soon as I move the boxed.exe to another folder or my desktop I'm no longer able to save the game. (Just get the error/no SE) 


What I tried:

• Having no save folder at all
  
• Creating the save folder (including a save file) before deploying the game and then using enigma
  
• Creating an empty save folder within the deployed data (inside the www folder) before using enigma
  
• Using a deployed game version that includes a savefile (let's me load that save file but is unable to write new ones, lol) 
  

Nothing worked out.


Maybe someone had a similar problem and knows a solution to that?



Thanks in advance! <3

Hello there,


I've encountered the same problem. What solved it for me was to use the following script in order to store the save files in the local data folders:




Try it out and see if works for you!

Thank you! I'll try it out in the next build! I hope this helps.

I simply created www/save folder and put it along the packed exe. Then create empty save file in the folder. Then there will be no problem

It also worked for me! I've just created the "www" folder alongside with the .exe file and put an empty "save" folder within it.
Thanks!!
