Actualy, the solution that saveeditonline proposed works wonders and its quite easy to implement, just go to the renpy folder inside you main game folder, look for savetoken.py, open it with a text editor and replace the line "if token_dir is None" to "if True", and that´s it, you can import any save you want, without further modify you save or upload your codes anywhere. No mod needed, it´s quite simple
Hello Twistty
Hey so I did your mod and installed it in a game that I was playing and it worked wonders, but I try modifying the save again it gave me this, any thoughts? View attachment 3664426

That is only a partial fix - depending on the ren'py version used.
Some of the newer versions added a few extra line of code - if not edited or removed - may cause "issues".

Also the "extra_savedirs_fix.rpy" file - stops the extra "sync" files *(redundant save files) from being created in the appdata/roaning/renpy/game folders. Those files are fairly useless - and wastes a lot of drive space. It also includes some of the most common, and used game fixes - that aid many games.

But the choice is always up to each individual user! ;)
Cheers

I've recently ran into a conflict on a few games I thought I'd bring to your (and everyone else's) attention. If a game does NOT have a .../renpy/common/00steam.rpy file in place, adding your fixes (and thereby adding that 00steam.rpy file) will crash the game at onset with:

Removing that file allows the game to run without issue. Do we need to have two versions? One for games headed to Steam and another version for non-Steam games?
 
  • Yay, new update!

Yes - I totally forgot about that when I updated my mod.

Edit:
The game you listed is:
Ren'Py 7.3.5.606
It shouldn't even need this mod - just the extra_savedirs_fix.rpy - if you find the game fixes useful.
The renpy folder part of the mod is only needed if it has a savetoken.py already a part of the game.
