Anyone know of a way to create a save system for a flash game built in MMF2?

can flash access any sort of external files?
i kind of doubt it. so your best bet would be to use a database on the site its uploaded to. a simple encrypted string should do it.

You should be able to save to ini. However, when the user clears browser cache, this temporary ini file is lost.

I've tested the INI in flash and it saves and loads just like a local ini file. Just use it as normal without setting the ini file's location. Though as MJK mentioned, clearing the cache will delete the temporary ini file (though I haven't tried this.)

Thanks guys,
How do you save an INI without selecting a file location? Mine never work.

i think you just save it using expression and just do "save.ini" instead of like apppath$ + "save.ini" or something similar, and it will save it to the cache. maybe? not sure, never tried.

In the INI object you don't even have to "save". It is auto whenever you change a value. Simply change a value and the data will be saved.

Can anyone confirm anything that has been said in this thread?
My INI skills are pretty poor at best.

You'd probably be better off using a PHP script that saves to a database, and then calling it with the Get object.
