Question about "exporting" a league

PotatoPeeler · 08-07-2002, 04:48 PM

Hi, I'm a newbie so please bear with me. I've looked at the FAQs and searched the forums and still haven't found an appropriate answer to my question. I'm playing a solo season and I have the game installed on two computers. I want to beable to pass the pertinent league info back and forth between each computer so I can play the same season on each computer. If someone could point me to a previous post or a web page that details how to do this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
PP

The best way to do it is to just zip up the league folder(minus, logos, photos) and send it via email or disk/CD. Then just unzip that archived file on to your other PC in the OOTP4 and league folder.

That's including all the dat files as well? What about the players.dat file? It's a very big file (20 MB). Even compressed, that's a little large for emailing.

Well, I know that emailing isn't always possible but burning it on a CD or sending it ICQ or AIM zipped normally works. Or finding a spot to upload the file to then d/l it.

Wow, I zipped up those files and it's only about 1.3 MB in size. I didn't think it would compress that well. I can easily email that size file. Thanks for the help.
