How does ez save?

[wheretheidivides]

SO I downloaded a advanced prefs editor app from the asset store. In the window it shows all player prefs and their values. This displays correctly except for ez save 2. It seems to be encrpyed. I do not have encrypted checked or a password. So is this normal? Does ez save save normal so it can be viewed or is it some weird format?

Hi there,

Easy Save stores data in binary format as this is much more compact than other formats, but does mean that data will not be readable.

So the obvious guy says, 'how about in a future update you give the programmer the option to store it normally?" That way we can see the variables in the player prefs while programming then when ready to export, can click the bool in the editor to go to the other format. Just a thought.

Hi there,

It's possible to save and load the data as a string without any formatting using ES2.SaveRaw and ES2.LoadRaw:
