hi everyone, i am writing because i had a very particular problem with a specific game (darkrise in this case) and i just can't solve it, i tried everything. basically this game has an additional save function with google cloud that allows you to save the game saves on google play games in case you want to change the device. in practice the save system of play games got bugged and I lost the saves for several days even if I saved regularly (this happened after changing phone. This explanation was needed precisely because I want to find a way to copy the saves of the game and to put it locally in the device I want in case the other goes to hell to have the saves locally (I state that the game works entirely offline) the problem is that I tried to do it manually, I took the game data from the android folder and put it in the other phone another premise, in the OBB folder the folder ticks but there is nothing inside, even if I view it from the pc, so I tried the following things:

i moved android / data folder via pc with in game name and files (without obb) and put it in the phone, then i installed the game: failed
I first tried to install it then to move the folder: failed
I tried to pass the app already installed and with the data already in the internal memory: failed

I'm also desperate because he's offline and I can't get him to recognize the save,HEEELP

Is the problem different versions? You could probably back up your working APK (to transfer to other device to install rather than play store install.) With an app like "apk share" by kibzorg lab
i think its the same with other versions cause i tried it also,i just want a way to transfer the data offline so it can be recognized by the second device

transfering the apk without installing wouldn't make any difference to the install (sorry if you said something different)

could you log in to the working device with different google login and load local save and try the backup cloudsave that way (new login on new phone, install save, change back to old login and try loading local save)

says data is empty(of course)
i created a new google account,i connected it to google play games,then i transfered locally a random save with my pc to the folder android/data of the game,i tried to open it with the new google account,on settings i tried to load data with cloud and it said data is empty(fuck me)

Heres a thought. Did you save the data to a cloud service?

And no [to the latter part in parenthesis], I don't know you that well. :rofl2::blush:
this specific game saves with google cloud,and because i ha dsome issues with it and lost data i wanted to locally transfer save data in order to stay safe but when i try to transfer in local i do it offline to make sure that no cloud is involved but nothing happens,also if i try to delete android data ,i reopen the game and the things are still there and the folder reappears,i dont know what to do,maybe transfering locally on cloud and then loading,but is hidden and i cant acces it,ooof

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
