.dat Questions

How do I use them? Every time I try and export every thing, I play the game, then when Level 2 loads, but when that happens an error message pops up and says this program needs to close, or something like that. The code on the finishing actor is
Code: Select all
LoadGame(Level 2.dat)
But it never works right.

p.s. Why when i export Anything it always goes to my Pokemon Remix 1.1 file?

I believe you use

Code: Select all
LoadGame("Level 2.ged");


You use .ged; it doesn't matter whether it is .exe or .dat in the end, it only points to the file name. :)

Hmmm... not sure what you mean... Do you mean the data goes to a wrong folder? :S

you must use the correct file name, otherwise if 2 folders have the same name it will not load any file. :(

It's also a good idea to avoid using spaces in file names... I stick to "_" 's instead.
