My friends came to this problem many times. Fortunately, it seems like map files are still working~^^ I have never got this problem myself though, since I'm using laptop. I will script data files backup script and post it within day or two~^^ It will only backup rx/rvdata files because this will save space and I'm not sure if resources would disappear either.

It's able to do in VX because there is built-in method to snap screenshot in module Graphics. But XP doesn't has that. :( So you have to come up with a way to snap game's screen in XP first. >_>"

This sounds really good, RMXPirate Thanks for making this :)
