THIS TOOL IS STILL IN EARLY PHASE, PLEASE BACKUP ANY DATA BEFORE USAGE.

   This plugin will open up a new window at the start of your playtest,  where you'll be able to export and import data from/to your project.

   You can navigate from a view to another by using the menu at the top of the window.

Why this plugin ?

   RMMV/MZ data are stored in JSON files, one for each type of the database (Actors, Weapons, Animations, Enemies, Common Events, ...). You can share your data by sending those files, but that means overwriting every actors/weapons/animations... There is no easy way to share a single armor or a couple items.

   This plugin resolve this issue and let you export/import part of a database without overwriting the whole file, I.E. import a few events from your friend's project without overwriting the entire maps.

Views

Export

   The export view will let you choose what data from your database/maps you want to export in a file. You can export multiple different type of data (actors, weapons, animations, common events...) and as much data as you want at the same time. 

   Exported data will be stored in the ./data-export folder at the root of your project. You can then send that file to whoever want to import your data. 

   Note : only data stored in your ./data folder of your project can be exported (.json file). Other type of assets (images, sounds...) are not supported.

Import

   The import view will let you select and upload a file previously generated by this tool. A summary of the data contained by the file will be displayed and you'll be able to choose what data you want to import in your project. 

   Note : This tool and his author aren't responsible for any data loss upon import. Back up your files and data.

Install Instructions

   Download, place archive in your project folder, right click on archive, extract directly in your project folder. Open up plugin manager of RPG Maker MV/MZ and add Drag_DataSharer. Run playtest.

   In order for this plugin to work as intended, please, make sure that the file "Drag_DataSharer.js" is located into the "/js/plugins/" folder of your project and that the file "Drag_DevTools_index.html" is located at the root of your project, next to the "game.rmmzproject" file.
