Export and import savegames of RPGMaker MV web games
Someone asked me how they can export their Witch Hunt web version savegames to be able to load them on other computers. I decided to make a quick tutorial to accomplish exactly that for any RPGMaker MV web version game.
Currently this tutorial is only made for Google Chrome.
- First of all you have to go to the Chrome Web Store and install the LocalStorage Manager Extension.
2. After that open up the web game and on the top right corner of your browser you should see the LocalStorage Manager icon. By pressing the icon the savegame data becomes visible. Now press Download. The web browser now downloads a .txt-file that contains the savegame data.
3. Now open the .txt-file in your text editor of choice (I used notepad++). It should look something like this:
You can now transfer this file to any pc you want to continue your savegames from. For the tutorials sake we now delete the savegames inside the browser to be able load them again via the saved .txt-file. Press Clear to delete the savegames inside the browser:
4. Now you import the savegame data on any pc you want to continue playing (the website of the game must be opened). Open the .txt-file and select all the data (ctrl+a) and copy it to the clipboard (ctrl+c).
Now press the LocalStorage Manager icon on the top right of your web browser again and select Import. After that paste the copied data (ctrl+v) inside the text input field and press OK:
5. After you imported the data, reload the website (F5) and you should be able to load the savegames again.
