How to backup your saved games

¡No utilices archivos de fuentes desconocidas! No animamos a los jugadores a utilizar juegos guardados de terceros debido al alto riesgo de dañar el juego o que el archivo sea un virus. Esta información está destinada únicamente a realizar una copia de seguridad de sus juegos guardados.

High School Days te permite guardar tu juego para que puedas continuar en otro momento o probar otros caminos que pueden dar resultados diferentes.

Estas partidas guardadas se almacenan dentro del dispositivo donde estás jugando, pero dependiendo de si es una PC, Mac, Linux o Android, la ubicación y el acceso a estos archivos pueden variar, por eso te informamos cómo puedes realizar una copia de seguridad de estos archivos, en caso de que necesite cambiar de dispositivo.

Identificar el archivo correcto

Identifying which saved file you have to choose is relatively easy since the naming pattern for saved files is always the same. This guide should also work with products that are not distributed by any Ren'Py Game.

Localizar el archivo guardado en el juego

Lo primero que necesita explicación es cómo funciona el sistema de archivos guardados de Ren'Py.

Ubicación e identificación de archivos guardados

Páginas

You'll notice the numbers at the bottom of your screen. Those are the page numbers. In Ren'Py games, the save system is built so that you have six entries for each page. The number of pages you can have is not limited; however, Ren'Py games will always only show you the first nine pages. You can go beyond the ninth page, but beware that there is no more indication about which page you're currently on. In this example, it will display the number of the page you're presently on in gray.

Save Slots

The save slots above the page numbers are limited to six entries per page and are in a fixed order. It's always from the top left to bottom right and numbered from 1 to 6 (top left is 1 and bottom left is 4).

Saved File Name

The saved file name is a combination of page number + save file slot. The first number of the saved file name is always the page number on which the save slot is located, and the second number is the save slot itself.

In the picture, you can see on the right side the name for the saved file you're looking for, which is 6-2-LT1.save. This naming pattern is the same for all platforms.

Saved File Location on Your Device

You would think that the saved files for the game are saved in the normal game folder under game/saves, but that is only a local copy (only valid for the copy of the game the folder is in) of the actual saved files, which are located somewhere else.

Windows

To make sure that you have the correct saved file, you can use this command on Windows to navigate to the correct saved file location:

%appdata%\RenPy\HighSchoolDays

(You can copy and paste this into the Windows search). This command will bring you to the folder where all saved files are stored. You should see a couple of files.

Mac

Your saved files on Mac can be found at this path:

~/Library/RenPy/HighSchoolDays

To access the above path:

Open up a Finder window, press COMMAND + SHIFT + G

Paste/enter the path (~/Library/RenPy/HighSchoolDays) into the text field and hit Go.

Linux

On Linux, you can find your saved files in the following folder:

~/.renpy/HighSchoolDays

Android

When installing a new version, the game should be able to be installed as an update, but depending on the Android version, sometimes this is not an option, and the game must be removed before the update can be installed.

If you can't update your game directly, backup your saved games before deleting the app. Some Android versions delete all linked files to the apps when they are deleted, so we recommend backing up your games before deleting the app.

On Android, your saved files can be found in:

SD:/Android/data/com.thehighschooldays.hsdgame/files/saves/

This is a protected folder, and you will need to connect your device to a computer to access it.

Downloading another file manager might work, too (Though there is no guarantee).
