Patching program?

[LaDestitute 3]

I am planning to release my game in patches (which I call chapters) and I simply do not like the usual method of pasting over the old folder. Does anybody know if a patching program exists? Even better if it has options for which file, and folder to replace the original with and if it's actually made for RM.

Not that i know of but if you know a little Visual Basic it should be easy enough to make.

I remember there being some sort of utility on HBGames that could do this. Searching that site is worth a shot.

Maybe using the install maker(or something similiar) available for download on www.clickteam.com

At Pol: Problem is I have barely any knowlage in advanced coding lanaguages, only I know is a small amount of RGSS, which is merely a subform of Ruby.

The one i sugggested doesnt require any scripting maybe you should give the demo a try

I actually found a tutorial for this when I was sorting topics. It's now located in our Official Tutorials forum.
