The Ultimate Guide to Editing Save Files for RPG Maker MV Games


Save Editing Tips and Tricks for RPG Maker MV






Rpg Mv Save Editor



Save editing is the process of altering the data stored in a save file, usually with the help of a software or a website that can decode and encode the save file format. Save editing can be done for various reasons, such as fixing bugs, cheating, testing, or customizing your game experience. However, save editing can also be risky, as it may corrupt your save file, cause glitches, or violate the game's terms of service. Therefore, you should always backup your save files before editing them, and use save editing at your own discretion.


In this article, I will show you some tips and tricks for editing save files for RPG Maker MV games, using some of the tools and resources available online. Let's get started!


How to locate and backup your save files




The first step of save editing is to find your save files and make a copy of them. Depending on the platform and game you are playing, your save files may be located in different folders. Here are some common locations for RPG Maker MV games:


  • Windows/EXE: The default location is %APPDATA%\[Game Name]\www\save, where [Game Name] is the name of the game folder. You can also search for .rpgsave files on your computer.



  • MacOSX/APP: The default location is /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/[Game Name]/www/save, where [username] is your user name and [Game Name] is the name of the game folder. You may need to show hidden files to access this folder.



  • Android/APK: The default location is /sdcard/ Android/data/[Game Name]/files/www/save, where [Game Name] is the name of the game folder. You may need a file manager app to access this folder.



  • iOS/IPA: The default location is /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/[Game ID]/Documents/www/save, where [Game ID] is a random string of letters and numbers. You may need a jailbroken device or a third-party app to access this folder.



  • Browser/HTML5: The default location is localStorage.rpg_file_[Game ID], where [Game ID] is a random string of letters and numbers. You can access this file by using the developer tools of your browser.



Once you have located your save files, you should make a backup copy of them before editing them. You can do this by simply copying and pasting them to another folder, or using a cloud service like Dropbox or Google Drive. This way, you can restore your original save files in case something goes wrong with your editing.

FAQs




Here are some frequently asked questions and answers about save editing for RPG Maker MV:


  • Q: Can I edit save files for any RPG Maker MV game?



  • A: Not necessarily. Some games may have encrypted or obfuscated their save files, making them harder or impossible to edit. Some games may also have anti-cheat mechanisms that detect and prevent save editing. You may need to use specific tools or methods to edit such games.



  • Q: Can I get banned or punished for editing save files?



  • A: It depends on the game and its terms of service. Some games may not care about save editing, while others may consider it as cheating or hacking, and take actions against it. You should always read and respect the game's terms of service before editing save files.



  • Q: Can I share my edited save files with others?



  • A: Again, it depends on the game and its terms of service. Some games may allow you to share your save files with others, while others may prohibit it or require permission from the game developer. You should always check and follow the game's terms of service before sharing save files.



  • Q: Can I edit save files for other RPG Maker versions?



  • A: Yes, but you may need to use different tools or websites for different RPG Maker versions.
