WebGL Newgrounds Save

Post by DotArt »

Hey, i was wondering if anyone has figured out how to use easy Save for saving on Newgrounds WebGL. It works fine when you upload the game but as soon as you update it or release a new version the URL gets changed and so the saved is wiped or cant be found. Does anyone know how to fix this

Thanks

Hi there,

Unfortunately this is not something developers have control over as it’s part of the WebGL specification that the storage is linked to the application identifier for security reasons.

In this case the only alternative would be to store data to your own server, for example using the ES3Cloud functionality:

All the best,

Hi there,

The ES3Cloud functionality is for syncing data with a server, not Google Drive. For Google Drive you would need to use a Google Drive plugin.

All the best,
