Yes this is nw.js local storage is what I'm having problems with.

It does not import the old saves of variable data in local storage from versions I make with the v12 and older nw.js to any versions of the game I make with the new c2 and latest nw.js.

I get two seperate folders for each of the versions so I can play v1.2 of my game with older nw/c2 with all my saved data or play v1.2 of my game with the newest nw/c2 thats using a different save data.

neither versions affects the other in terms of webstorage saving.

My older nw.js saves go here:

My newer nw.js saves go here:

Sadly there is no disable updates in steam option, it was replaced with update only when you load the game.

When I put the older installed version from the site into the steam and then try the importing a shortcut to it method, that some people use for game mods, it shows as only the free version.

I'll give them a try next time II'm at the PC.

Thanks for the reply, it is essentially what I want to do but the problem is that I bought the steam version so I can't download an older version using the site and can't find a way to do it in steam.

So now my steam construct 2 has updated to the latest stable release that makes old local storage not work for my released game I update with new content regularly.

That means any new update now will delete everyone's saves so I can't update anything to it now till this is sorted.

Is there any way to make the construct 2 on steam not update to the latest build and revert to an earlier one?

People can play my game on linux running the same game files outside of steam but they get errors when trying to play it through steam itself.

Is there something I have to do to make it run properly when going through steam?

some comments I got:

"yes, I can reproduce this (gentoo ~amd64, xfce4, nvidia-drivers-361.18, GTX 980 Ti).

does nothing when launched from steam, works from commandline.

Whenever I have a problem with the pin behavior I instead tell the object to position to another objects position every tick with the set position and:

[object].ImagePointX("[imagepoint") [object].ImagePointY("[imagepoint")

Do you have the steam version and put all you projects files in the same folder as the .caproj? If so try exporting the game as a new caproj in a different area away from your music/sounds/art and opening that new version.

When I did this it stopped a 5min+ wait on saving back to seconds and constant slowdown when using the editor after 10 minutes on my project.

I have just exported my game with v12 and then the same game again after updating c2 in steam and nw.js to beta 2.

v12 still has my save files (local storage)

When I open my game exported with beta 2 it loads with no saves. after making a save it works fine with anything beta 2

when I reopen the v12 version it uses the old saves again.

Currently local storage isn't backwards compatible with the earlier versions and uses different directories to look for local storage. My main problem is my game is released so I can't void everyone's data with the new update to nw.js.

I've heard Spriter being said quite a lot on this forum. Can you do frame by frame in that program or are you stuck with ragdoll only? At the moment I'm looking for something like flash but I would prefer one that isn't vector based.

When I had to reduce the size of objects in my game I found that making a history resize in photoshop then using a batch process to do all files got me a better result than the inengine editor and much faster to do.

Sorry if this info was too late to be useful.

nw.js 12 and below looks for and uses local storage in: local\(game name)\Local storage

any of the 13+ look for and use it in: Local\(game name\User Data\Default\Local Storage
