Question to Developer

[MikeG719]

Anyway you can make it so we have a login and password that are saved games are tied to? I as well as a couple of my friends have had to restore are phones as new due to the apple updates...so we lost our game saves....and these restores have to occur rather frequently with how often apple updates to prevent the phone from running slow?

Is this feature possible?

You mean like the passwords I used to use for Mike Tyson punchout?

To be honest, I don't understand the question. And why do you need to restore your device for Apple updates? I just update my iPod and keep all my data. I need more input.

I've never had an Apple update delete information from my phone - the only way I can think of you losing saves is if you're resetting to factory settings when you install somehow or not saving and exciting the game when you update.

Do a manual save before you update the iOS version, ensure that you don't reset the phone to factory settings and all should be well.

My 3GS was being sluggish because of the new update. Restoring my phone from an old backup didn't solve the problem. I had to restore as a new phone and when this is done...any game saves for any game are deleted because you are setting the phone up as a new phone.

So I lost my season because I had to do this.


So my question is there a way you can set up a login once the game starts that ties the game saves to that login and not just the program itself.

The only way this would work is if the device saved to a location which wasn't on the phone, say a server somewhere - that would require a fast internet connection and prevent people without one from potentially accessing their saves.

What iOS version are you running right now? - if you're above 4.0 then if the 'file sharing' is opened up on iOOTP in a future update then that would allow you to backup your saves manually to your PC/Mac and then restore them afterwards by manually copying them back onto the device (thats the most feasible solution I'd expect).

PS - This isn't my game, just talking .... entirely up to Markus, palli etc. to decide obviously

use a program that allows access to folders, copy the save folder onto your computer, reinstall the game and copy the save back to the appropriate folder
