Long Save Times

Ever since i started a new project my save project takes like 10-20 seconds and keeps not responding i tried placing one block and then saving and i still get 15 second save project times. Anyone know whats going on?

Do you use the Steam version?


If that's the case, then you have unfinished downloads or synchronisations open with steam, steam slows down a lot if its currently downloading data.


This will also happen even if you don't have any updates required, if the cloud synchronisation somehow failed to register as finished (happens sometimes), in that case you need to go to steam's program properties and manually synchronize.


If you have the standalone version, it might be that your antivirus is conflicted - several users reported false positives in some programs...

Are you using the steam version? I find this is usually due to your project being saved to the steam cloud...which is handy for backup purposes but frustrating when it comes to save times at least with my internet.

To stop the program from doing this I did two things...

1) In Steam right click RPG Maker VX Ace, go to "Properties," click on "Updates" tab, and uncheck "Enable Steam Cloud Synchronization"

2) Open your project and click File > Manage Projects, highlight your project and click "Delete From Cloud." 

Now all my projects are only saved to my PC...be sure to make alternative backups of your files if necessary if you go this route.

thank you so much
