Functionality in Detail:

.

Use As Static Panel: With clicking on Add Panel To Pane Button, Backup Panel will add as a static panel to nuke panes (like properties, node graph, …) for easier access

.

Settings:

Km Backup And Recovery Toolkit can backup project file in 2 different locations. Local Backup service save backup file in a folder beside the project file. Secondary Backup service save backup file in specified folder by user.

Active: Enable or Disable service

Scheduling:

Keep one version per hour: backup a version of project for each hour

Keep one version per day: backup a version of project for each day

For example, we have a project named “test” and have worked on it at the date 25_09_2020 from hour 16 to 20, if Scheduling is “per hour” backup files will be like this:

But in “per day” mode, we will have just a version for each day:

After working four days we have a version for each day:

Big Script File Option :Each time we save the project , the last backup file will be updated, so with every save operation Nuke will save project files 3 times (1 : main project file , 2 : local backup , 3: secondary backup). If the project file is huge, It is possible to have overhead on hard disk or network and cause to lag . By check “Big Script File Option” save operation for the backup file will be performed only once an hour. For example if a version of backup file exists for 15:10 , it will not save (update or save new version based on Scheduling settings) until 16:00 .

Open Backup Folder :Open backup folder in file explorer
