Folder and file structure

Post by mpelley92 » Tue May 31, 2016 8:07 pm

Hi there, I recently had issues with my phone and had to factory reset, instead I accidentally formatted my data partition on my phone.

I currently have a recovery program trying to scan my phone to recover my save files and whole folder where the emulator files were stored.

If someone could kindly provide me with a folder hierarchy and file extensions that the app uses (the files stored in the main storage folder) that would be great.

Even a screenshot of each folder tree, as well as the files (so I know what to look for). Also, having a general idea of the size of each file is great too.


Thx

Sure...I'm not 100% sure what you're after but with my English understanding you're looking for the Drastic main folder I guess?
TBH what you're asking for is a waste of time as you install Drastic it auto creates these folders back...but anyways.

I'm having issues uploading stuff online cuz of crappy internet so screenshots is the best you get.

I'll only post Screenshots of the folders with files in them///empty ones won't be posted.

I don't know if I'll get banned for this because of 2 reasons 1.you could exploit the emulator or maybe not and 2.Spamming huge pics to help somebody but YOLO...this time you're trying to recover lost files...though you only need Savestates and In-Game saves the rest isn't necessary.

The only 2 folders you really need the data from is the Savestate folder and the backup folder those are your saves. The shader folder or slot2 folder might have data if you messed arround with them and added shaders or gba slot 2 games. All the rest you should not try to recreate and just let DraStic remake when you reinstall it from the play store.

@Tksilver does this mean I'm going to get banned for posting huge images of Drastic's main folder structure?

No... they are not pointless memes. It would be better if you used spoiler tags to make it a lottle cleaner or if you resized the images to make them fit better for people who use phones and tablets to visit the forum.
