# Preparing for future updates

Calysto Village works a lot with databases to speed up your workflow but it's easy to lose it during an update if you work on the original database. For that reason, this will work with composite databases and is easy to use.

1. Go into CalystoVillage/Data
2. Duplicate DT\_DemoFarm, DT\_Cemetery, and DT\_DemoVillage and rename the farm and village inside the data table it's important otherwise Calysto Village will not see them, every name must be unique
3. Open CDT\_AllFarm and add your new farm duplicate
4. Open CDT\_AllVillage and add your new village duplicate
5. Open CDT\_Cemetery and add your new cemetery duplicate
6. Keep your duplicate in a folder outside of MassiveVillage in case updating overrides the folder.

On each update, all you will have to do will be steps 3 and 4 and you are sure to never lose your database.
