Want to create automatic backups of your Farcry 4 save? Here is a super basic tool that will create daily backups of your savegame.
How to use this tool: Read the included README.txt file!
Extract fc4autosave.zip Install: double-click "install.bat" BACKUP Location: C:\Users\ <YOUR USERNAME> \Documents\FC4Saves\ <DATE> \ (e.g. FC4Saves folder is located in "My Documents")
NOTE: This tool only works if UPLAY is installed on your C: drive (your FC4 game install location doesn't matter). NOTE: Probably only works on English versions of Windows. NOTE: Backups work with uplay cloud saves; however, you probably need to disable cloud saves before restoring old backups.
Uninstall: double-click "remove.bat" (this file is located in your Documents\FC4Saves folder)
How to restore backups:
Locate the backup date you want to restore (My Documents\FC4Saves\ < DATE YOU WANT> \ <f0309ad9....> ) Copy the <f0309ad9....> folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\
NOTE: This amateurish script is provided as-is, YMMV, etc.
NOTE: Someone should make a better, automatic backup & restore program. I'm not a programmer, obviously.
