Title: How can I export all my rooms backgrounds easily ?
Post by: Marion on Fri 27/01/2023 12:18:44
Hi everyone :)
I need to export all the backgrounds from one of my game. But as they are hundred of them, that will take some times to export them manually from the Room window in AGS.
Is there a way to automatize the process ? Or extract the picture files from the rooms .crm files, for example ?
Thank you for your help !

The easiest way I can think is to make a copy of your game project and load it in the unreleased less than alpha ags4. In it, the room project file is a xml and the images are kept as separate png files, so naturally, it would be already exported after loading the project.

You can get an unstable prebuilt here: https://cirrus-ci.com/task/5793443872505856

The arrow near "Installer", the pop-up says "Download all files (ZIP)" when my cursor moves over it.

It sounds like you may be using some temporary download link, which points to a build server. This server deletes these builds after a while.

The latest AGS 4 version may be reliably downloaded using links in this forum thread:
