Automatic Sync/Export Option

[weogarth]

+1 but I'd be happy with in-realm synching instead

Sorry to necro this post, but I need help pertaining to this.

I clicked the "Don't show this message again" checkbox when I exited Realm Works, thinking it would remember that I wanted to go to the realm selection screen. But instead it just exits. It's a bit of a pain to have to go back into RW to sync my changes, since I am no longer prompted to do so.

Is there a way to reset my Preference, or do I have to reinstall? Also, will we ever have the option to have RW auto-sync when we exit the program?

Hah, I found this topic while searching for a way to sync without exiting. Oh, well.

At present - no.

There is some indication, that this will probably be made possible.
As I understand it, it might be done in one of two ways:

From the GM edition through the MarketPlace* to the Player edition, or

From the GM edition to the webbased edition.


The above is my understanding and might be wrong.


*) The Marketplace will be more than "just" a place to buy commercial products - as far as I understand it will tie everything together.

Instead of exiting, click on the RealmWorks globe (upper left of the window).. the menu that opens has an option "Switch Realm", which will take you to the launcher screen so you can sync.

For the checkbox, the results used to be stored in a file "preferences.xml" in the data folder. I *really* don't recommend playing with it, but if you do, make sure to create a backup first. At worst, you can delete it, and in that case, all "Do not show" will be un-done (along with other preference-type settings).

Being able to sync without closing the realm would be a feature I would personally love to see, even if it's not on an interval.
