Title: Importing from different OS
Post by: flyingmachine on Wed 04/09/2013 07:19:02
Hello!

Im new to AGS, and just started. Right off the bat I noticed I can import games and edit them in AGS. At home I use a 10 year old laptop running XP, while at school I use more recent PCs running on Vista/Win7.

Now, is it possible to make a game importing from XP to Vista/Win7 and vice versa? I would most likely be doing it often to meet the deadline for this project.

Tried looking at the manual and googling it. Found nothing or probably missed things. Anyway, any help would be much appreciated. :smiley:

There should be nothing specific about O/Ses in the game files. So, as long as the system can run the editor (that means, most Windows systems, though there were report that the editor sorta running on other O/Ses via methods such as WINE, etc.) you can edit the game there. The simplest way is to just backup the whole game file folder and transfer it between the systems for editing.

Beware though, to prevent incompatibility issues, make sure that you use the same version of editor on both systems.
