.bak files

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/.bak files

Is there any way to stop B3D from producing these 'backup' files?

Jim

Yes. Edit the prefs file in the cfg folder, and set edit_backups to 0. You'll have to restart blitz3D - if you have it running - before it takes effect, though.

Thanks

ooh, thanks!

One word of advise, I would recommend in leaving this on, there may come a time when you would need a .bak file, I know I have in the past in programming :)

Ditto!

I back my code up on a memory stick every one in a while. I'm safe :)
