"Data" folder means what exactly? Mac user

[Jah Tut]

Hi.

I see mention of pointing to the 'data' folder when I want to have a custom data path, but I'm not clear on exactly which folder I would move there.
I don't see a 'data' folder, so I'm not sure if I'm supposed to move the entire 'OOTP Baseball 16' folder, or a sub-folder.

Ideally I'd like to put the whole 'OOTP Baseball 16' folder on Dropbox and have two different computers be able to share the same game (photos, games, skins, backgrounds) so I can just hop back and forth between the two.

I'm new to OOTP, but not the Mac.

Thanks for your help.

So, not a Mac guy here, but inside your OOTP folder there should be a folder called saved_games. Inside THAT should be, well, your saved games, all ending in .lg. Once you have started up a game, all you really need is that .lg folder. If you Drop-Box that, you should be able to share that saved game between the two machines.

However, it kinda sounds like you're interested in sharing the entire INSTALLATION in that manner. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about Macs to know how/if you can do that.

Thanks for that... that'll get me started.
That's really what I needed for now.

If anyone knows a way to sync the photos, backgrounds too, feel free to pipe in.

Thanks again.
