very usefull

 

friuns3,

Nice plugin. Would be perfect if you add the feature to autosave on play and on a set interval.

Thanks.

 

Cool plugin. Are you saving the diff of the file ?

 

i get errors when saving using your asset and Unity 4.6.1..... I updated from 4.5 (in which everything worked...) to 4.6.1 recently.. could you update the asset, please? (or is this a problem on my end?)

thanks!

 

Nice asset but crashes in Unity 5.0 - when can we expect an update.

 

Hi i noticed that too, here is fix in localhistory.cs

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.   static void OnWillSaveAssets(string[] importedAssets)
3.     {
4.         foreach (string str in importedAssets)
5.         {
6.            
7.             var lower = Path.GetExtension(str).ToLower();
8.             if (formats.Any(a => a == lower))
9.             {
10.                 string destFileName = PostFix(str);
11.                 if (!File.Exists(destFileName))
12.                 {
13.                    
14.                     Directory.CreateDirectory("History/" + Path.GetDirectoryName(str));
15.                     FileMove(str, destFileName);                    
16.                 }
17.             }
18.         }
19.     }
20.  

replace with

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.    
3.   static void OnWillSaveAssets(string[] importedAssets)
4.     {
5.         foreach (string str in importedAssets)
6.         {
7.            
8.             var lower = Path.GetExtension(str).ToLower();
9.             if (formats.Any(a => a == lower))
10.             {
11.                 string destFileName = PostFix(str);
12.                 if (!File.Exists(destFileName))
13.                 {
14.                    
15.                     Directory.CreateDirectory("History/" + Path.GetDirectoryName(str));
16.                     FileMove(str, destFileName);
17.                     File.WriteAllText(str, "");
18.                 }
19.             }
20.         }
21.     }
22.

Hi, thanks for the fix. You need to skip the new added line when called from a load function if not it will mess things up on load. I've implemented these two changes and now it's been stable for several days.

 

Your asset deleted my main game scene. I don't have a recent backup (because that's partly why I bought your asset).Thanks

I think you have a responsibility to either update your asset, or remove it from the asset store before it happens to anyone else. It's a pretty dangerous asset as it stands... ie an asset which claims to backup your files but actually deletes them.

Cheers

 

Your asset don't work correctly, this system deleted my main game scene, and Unity Close without saving...

To fix the problem I had to go in the project folder where are the historical of your system and change the format of the scene that had changed the directory and the extension ...
Correct it or take the assetstore!!! ​

 

Local History doesn't appear under windows. I clicked on new scene to create a health bar then my original scene I could not get back to. I'm using the 2019 version of unity. Any ideas please? Thanks. All my Assets and scripts are still there
