Simple powershell script that will periodically save your game as you play

Post by 3DNovice »

I randomly came across this and thought what a great idea.

There are also several other variations on other sites, that may help to create one for other games if needed.
( I personally have no coding experience, but it looks fairly straightforward after looking at a tutorial)

This would only be some lines in batch to achieve this and batch is more easy to use. So copy some files from time to time to a individual named folder would be easy and process detection for automatically starting and end copy. I can do this for you if you want.

Thank you for the offer, but I have no need of it.

I just posted this, because I thought it might help someone shaderhacker working on a game to easily revisit some areas

I also thought that some achievement hunters would find it useful.

Of course, you could post a generalized code for others to use as a base/example.

This should do what you have had in mind :-) Here is my Script.

simply extract and run from wherever you want and follow the screen.

Ty, I'll give it a try, next time I play something.
Right now, I'm playing some PS4 games due to an eye injury requiring a patch.
