Perfekt! Genau was ich gebraucht habe. Hab das mit dem Speichern jetzt schon viel zu lange aufgeschoben, fühlt sich gut an, das endlich fertig zu haben und sich den spaßigeren Dingen wie Gegnern und NPCs zu widmen. ^^

Best saving (and most secured) saving tutorial I have seen thanks so much (I have been looking for months)

[davidvlcek]

Best serialization tutorial what i seen. Thank you.

[Radmer]

Thanks for the help. Tested it for Android as well and it works perfectly.

[Layla-bjgk]

That is working perfectly fine for my 2d rpg game! thanks!

Thanks for the tutorial! It gave me a good idea on how to store my 2D levels of my game.

Thanks Man, Really Helpful. Made My Day :)

[thiagonascimentonogueira]

First off, great video!
Does this method work only for standalone or it works for android games as well?
Thanks

[celestialweasel]

Awesome stuff OctoMan, thanks for sharing. I was wondering if you know how to create the save files in a different location though, like My Documents for example.

[mominanjum]

hi thanks for the tutorial. i have some dynamic playerprefs from your previous tutorials which determine the name of the level and save a value for each level.Is it possible to create some dynamic variable name and save the value for each level in a binary file?

[NickkSA]

Nice! Now let's make a Minecraft clone and save all the million-billion blocks into one file, shall we? :D

[IrfanShah-dkmu]

thank you so much it works for me in android and windows,
A quick question, does it save data line by line??
thanks in Advance .!!

[corriegreen]

Looks good - can you use this for saving a scene that contains instantiated prefabs?

[UpheavaI]

hey, i am curious to ask befor i watch this incase its not for me. is just save and loading single objects, or a whole scene? is there anyway to do that? i mean cmon its a gamming engine

[techd]

Erstmal richtig gutes Video :DCan we replace the SaveManager class with a SaveManager struct and make the struct Serializable? Or does the Serializable prefix not work with structs?

[qofgcmy]

this is the most easy to "understand" tutorial, but thing that make this video look similar to other is you didn't write the code in your description for copy and pasting, just like the other video, we must write it manually .

textfile data read it is a binary format data it is not readable format
sir any reference for the readable data in file

[zedzamorin]

Is it possible to serialize an int variable after giving it a number and then deserialize it another scene to obtain that number given before? Like Save in one scene and load in another?

[bery]

Hello man you do a great job but can you help me with something? When i play the game and after i save and at the same time i go back to other scene i have this error "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Saving.Save () (at Assets/Saves/Saving.cs:21)".I don't know what to do thanks for help.

[oriontvv]

Is it possible to add new fields to the SaveManager in the next version of the game and deserialize them with default values from old save file with "coins" field only? In other words, can I change the structure of save-file from version to version? Thx
