How does it work?

The world periodically saves a snapshot of your progress in the VRChat log files.

Initially, the program will scan your logs at %LOCALAPPDATA%Low\VRChat\VRChat and recover previous Save Codes in your logs. Then it will continue detecting new codes as you play.

Why is it not showing anything despite previously playing Terrors?

There's the possibility that you have logging disabled. You can enable it by opening your Quick Menu, go to settings, scroll all the way down and turn logging on.

Program is stuck on "Loading, please wait..."

This problem is most likely caused when the program is trying to parse large log files created by VRChat.
You can check your VRChat logs by pressing Windows Key + R Then type %APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\VRChat\VRChat and click Ok.
If you see logs file with a storage size out of the ordinary, that might be the cause of your issue.

Why is the .exe so big? >100MB

The exe is bundled with the .NET runtime that it's required to run the program. Using a command line argument for dotnet publishing: --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true
This adds size to the file, but ensures that the program runs independently without relying on a previous .NET installation.

This is so people that download this program does not have to go download the .NET runtime framework themselves. And it's ready to run without any extra actions from the user.

The program is compiled from the source using Github actions, you can see the full arguments in the workflow file.

Is this against VRChats ToS?

  • Short Answer: No

This is an external tool that uses local plain text files that VRChat writes to the Local APPDATA folder. We are allowed to read these files since it does not modify or alter the game in any way. This is not a mod or a cheat.
