How does it work

When starting a backup, the script copies the "Saves" directory (usually located in "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Hyperbolic Magnetism\Beat Saber") and the "Game" directory ("...\steamapps\common\Beat Saber") to the desired backup folder. Doing so, it also creates a corresponding folder inside the backup location containing the Beat Saber version and time of the backup. Optionally you can specify how many backups you want to keep. If specified the script will only keep a certain amount of backups at a time.

When restoring a backup, the script allows you to select the backup you want to restore from. After that it will move the current Beat Saber installation to a folder called "trash" (located inside the backup folder) just in case you want to recover it. Then the script will start to recover the selected game version.

How to use

Adjust the "save", "game", and "backup" paths inside "_backup.bat", "_restore.bat" and "_info.bat" to your needs.
!!! Important !!! only use "/". NO backslashes. Also environment variables like "%username%" won't work so you have to paste in the full path.

1. "Save" path - usually located in "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Hyperbolic Magnetism"
2. "Game" path - path to your Steam lib e.g. "G:/Steam/steamapps/common"
3. "Backup" path - specify where you want your backup location to be [you have to create the folder first before starting the backup]

Adjust the max amount of total backups. E.g. -n 8 (max amount of backups set to 8).
If 0 then it will be infinite.

Execute the *.bat file(s).
