There are 3 ways to install Ryzom

• the official one, with the Ryzom installer (in v5 in June 2019), which allows to easily manage various profiles.
• using Steam (contact support if you want your account to be unlink from Steam)
• as a static client (without the installer, App Store Mac,...).

Files to save

A folder to backup: save

Here are the main file to backup (where avatar is the name of your toon):

• keys_avatar.xml has keyboards shortcuts and macros
• groups_avatar.xml jewels/armor/tools groups
• landmarks_avatar.xml landmarks saved on your map
• log_avatar.xml (if activated) the logs of your toon (chats)

Note
You can share your macros (several toons on the same PC) using a single shared_keys.xml. To do this, you need to rename your keys_avatar.xml file (if a keys_avatar.xml rexists in the folder, shared_keys.xml won't be used).
