How to pass my progress from older JN port to JNL

Warning: This guide only applies to the version of the port with the material-themed menu, export persistent, file explorer, etc.

We recommend backing up your progress using the Export Persistent option to avoid any issues with the migration script.

  1. Download this rpy file.
    This is a script to migrate persistent from Ren'Py 8.3.7 to Ren'Py 6.99.

  2. Place the rpy script you downloaded at: InternalFiles/game/
