(HOWTO) Upgrading from the ubuntu snap to latest version

#1 Post by Berder »

I have been playing 1.6.0 on the ubuntu snap. I want to upgrade to 1.6.6, downloaded from the website. It runs fine, but does not have my saves or settings. I think I have done it, so here is a guide.

First I located the saves and settings for the snap. They are in ~/snap/talesofmajeyal/43/.t-engine/4.0/ . This has subdirectories:

Code: Select all

system:~/snap/talesofmajeyal/43/.t-engine/4.0 berder$ ls
boot  example  example_realtime  keybinds2.cfg  profiles  settings  tome
And I know that this config should be somehow moved to ~/.t-engine/ .

So I first renamed ~/.t-engine to ~/.t-engine-backup, then recursively copied ~/snap/talesofmajeyal/43/.t-engine/ to ~/.t-engine .

Seems to work; my old saves are now in game.

Note that you may need to replace "43" with a more recent number depending on the snap version you want to update from.

Aaaand the very first thing I did with my imported save was cast fireflash on myself and die, because fireflash damages you (as well as enemies) in 1.6.6 but didn't in 1.6.0.
