Re: My brother deleted my game data

how long have you spent working on it?

My zelda game was made HALF WAY, which took me a year or so, and I decided to go back and remake everything from scratch. I don't regret doing it, that much, though.

Re: My brother deleted my game data

I just don't feel like making game's after today.I wish they put the password system so my brother can't get access to it...
Good that my Mum punished him.

Re: My brother deleted my game data

It's in my hands now...I don't know what else to say.

So why don't you turn the tables on your brother and instead of him beating someone's ass, you can beat his?

Re: My brother deleted my game data

Hey simpleman,
Sorry about that. That can be really really frustrating. I know firsthand. Well, take a break for a few days and maybe go back to it. You have notes on it already. You still have the ideas in your mind. It's just a matter of putting them back into your game. Maybe save up a little money and get another memory that is just yours (for your game saves). That way your brother won't make that mistake again.

Re: My brother deleted my game data

Oh, and not to mention that my 1st attempt went down the crapper because of my lack in knowledge on the Max Drive (this was before I read Valk's helpful topic), so I ended up making 3 versions, with 3 being the final finished one.

The one that the max drive erased had up to dungeon 1's mid boss, but still, that WAS (as in it's no problem now) hard for me to get at.

Hint: Try, as hard as you can, even if it'll take awhile, to get your own memory card. My brothers were mad at me cuz I had 2 rpgm2 files on ALL of our memory card (and I have 4 brothers), so I went off and bought my own (used; was like 9.99 or so). 2 RPGM2 files is like, 5400 kb down the drain, so they had little to nothing left on them having files for the numerous games we had.

that's just my tip, take it or leave it.

Eh.... going on a voyage to make the 'greatest game' is bound to set for disaster. I can give you details on why (as I thought I'd do that, too).

If it's being passed down to someone else, how is it gone forever?

You're kinda giving up way to easily, which kinda says lack of motivation. Meaning, you probably woulda gave up anyway.

I mean, yeah, it was a dip**** move for your brother to delete the file, but that doesn't mean you cant just 'redo' it.

Re: My brother deleted my game data

I'm sorry to hear this, Simpleman. Losing something you've worked hard for hurts, and it's doubly frustrating, I'm sure, losing it to malice rather than accident.

I'd encourage you to consider getting back to your game within a couple days. Getting past where you already were will feel good, trust me. If you're trying to make one of the best Pavilion games ever, it will no doubt take hundreds of hours. I've already spent about 40 hours on mine and I'm about 5% complete with the content (think about it: within a few hours you'll probably be further towards completion than I am! ), and I still don't claim it's going to be one of the best ever. The reward should be in the creation, not the critiques.

To prevent this from happening again, get a second memory card, back up your game to that memory card every couple days, and hide the second memory card, so if your first one gets wiped or deleted or damaged, you can simply start from where you were on the second one.

Re: My brother deleted my game data

Well, with a second memory card, he wouldn't really need to worry about his brother erasing his file, as the brother SHOULD be using the first. But we all know how siblings are
