There are two ways to solve this:
Internally from AS or using an external application.
If you use an external application you only can handle the file that is currently saved in the hard disk. Then what an external program does is to create a copy of the old file before you replace it once you press save on the producer application (Anime Studio). That can be done with an automated program (which can make a backup of your file every certain time, as slowtiger mentioned) or by an application that makes you incremental modified status (not only for a file but for the entire project with all the files) using a control version system.

The other way, incremental saving within AS can only be done with a script or internally hardcoded, because what you want to preserve and don't want to replace to the existing one on the hard disk, is currently in memory only.
There is not application (not if it doesn't do reverse engineering) that can save the memory content of Anime Studio to an incremental backup file.

ulrik: please do a search yourself about that, I just know it's possible, but haven't done that. There are examples already installed, and there are forums in the net about it.

Sure, I just thought you worked like that and had a ready workflow.

Anyone knows if there is an incremental save script?

I searched the forum at no avail!

As in you select it and it saves your file with the next digit available, as in saving filename_03 to filename_04!

especially if it could be assigned a hotkey.

Thanks!

Really? A 10 year old thread?
