RPG MAKER TRICKS #7 - THE HIDDEN FOLDER TACTIC
Yeah, you expected the Ao Oni chase system, right?
But it is I! The Hidden Folder trick!
And yeah, this is gonna save your butt. A lot.
Anyway, this is gonna be quite short for a trick. And this is more of a general trick (or tip) for anyone else in the game dev sector. Basically, what we’re going to do is to make the files hidden, most expected are the folders that contain the files that you need. (Ehem, ehem, encrypted files ehem, ehem)
This is quite simple. All you have to do is this.
1. Open Command Prompt (You can do so by pressing Windows + R then typing cmd)
2. There, put the following code.
attrib +s +h “<File or Folder Directory>”
If you think that making it invisible renders it unable to be used. Think again. Seriously. We only made it invisible to the eye, not to the system. Also, this is not similar to the ‘hidden’ option that you see in the properties. Legit, try finding it. Though there are several explorers (namely WinRAR) that can find said folders.
So congrats! Not only did you know something about computers, but also a way to hide you files. Remember, they can’t hack it if they can’t find it. Good day.
