Opening Remarks:

This program was thrown together for my own use using Visual Studio. It works for me running on windows 10 and
I make no promises that it will work for everyone. There are too many unpredictable variables for that.

Installation:

1. Drag and drop the NeoSaves.exe wherever you want. You will probably want to put it in a folder in your �My Documents� called �NeoSaves� since that is where the files are kept.
2. Run the program and follow steps 1 and 2 at the top.
3. When you click �create save directory� it makes the folders in your �MyDocuments� for the save files. If you skip this step the program will probably crash.
Notes:
-To find your Save File location: (copied from the NeoScavenger Website)
-Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\ RandomString\PathToGame\NEOScavenger.exe\nsSGv1.sol
-Windows 7 and 8: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\RandomString\PathToGame\NEOScavenger.exe\nsSGv1.sol
-OSX: Macintosh HD:Users:UserName:Library:Preferences:Macromedia: FlashPlayer:#SharedObjects:RandomString:PathToGame:NEOScavenger.app\nsSGv1.sol
-Linux:/home/UserName/.macromedia/Flash_Player/#SharedObjects/RandomString/PathToGame/NEOScavenger/nsSGv1.sol
In each of the above cases:
-UserName is the username you use to log into your OS.
-RandomString is a string of numbers and letters, for each computer.
-PathToGame is the path to the NEO Scavenger binary. For example, if your game was launched from "C:\games\NEO Scavenger" folder on Windows, the path would look something like:
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\RandomString\localhost\games\NEO Scavenger\NEOScavenger.exe\nsSGv1.sol
-This means that moving the game to a new folder changes where the save games appear.
-Keep in mind that on some OSes, the above folders may be hidden, by default. On Windows, you can show hidden files following these instructions.


Using NeoSaves:

Manually Saving.

1. Simply hit one of the �Save� buttons.
2. You can add a comment to remind you what the save is.
3. The timestamp of the Neo Scavenger save will show underneath.

**To get an accurate �save� it is recommended to go to the main menu to �force� Neo Scavenger to create a save state.
Otherwise your �save� will be from when the game last did an autosave. This program does not force the game to create
a save state. It just makes a backup copy of whatever the last Neo Scavenger save state was.**


Loading your saves

1. Simply click on the �load� button when you are on the game�s main menu.


Using the Autosave feature.

1. NeoSaves copies the Neo Scavenger save file as a roughly every 2 minutes.
2. To load an autosave use the �Load from last autosave� button when you are at the main menu.
3. The files are timestamped as of when NeoSave made the copy. However your best bet is to look at the �last modified� time of the
file as that is when Neo Scavenger last made a change to the save file.
4. Don't forget to periodically �purge� your autosaves. Just click the button. It�s not rocket science.

That is all!
