Transferring Saves from Demo

Idle Research · published

All eventsRead on Steam

Hey guys,
I messed up the build name for the demo, causing saves to not transfer to the full release :(

However, there is a way! It's not too bad, here are the steps:

Make sure you have ran the full release version of Idle Research, for those who have access already (and those who will in the future :D)

  1. Make sure Idle Research and the Demo version are closed.
  2. Search %APPDATA% in Windows Search
  3. Go back to the AppData folder if you are not in it for some reason.
  4. Go to "LocalLow" folder
  5. Go to "CryptoGrounds" folder
  6. Go to "Idle Research Demo" folder
  7. Copy that "saves" folder
  8. Go back and then go to "Idle Research" folder
  9. Paste the folder in there and replace existing files.

Now you can launch Idle Research and things should be good to go.
Sorry if this is a pain, now I will remember to do Demos correctly in the meantime :)

Thanks!
