Play same game on 2 computers

RoteLaterne · 01-01-2019, 06:42 AM

Since I have two computers I was wondering if it is possible to play "the same" game on both computers?

Is it enough to copy the "xyz.lg" folder in the saved_game folder?

You get 2 licenses with the game so you can run it on a laptop and desk top at the same time.
Unless you bought it through steam.
Then i believe you can have it whichever computers you have steam on but can only run it on one computer at a time.

Bought it through Steam and, yes, I can only play it only on one computer at a time.

I wanted to know if a saved game on one computer (A) can be played on another (B) after copying the right files?!

no warning from Steam either. There is no reason quite frankly i shouldn't be able to have it open multiple times on my high powered computer so i can do multiple sims.
but i think they are working on moving the interface around and changing the current to classic 2

Yes.
Just copy the league folder.
The thing you need to keep in mind is that you might want to make sure both computers have the same photos, logos etc so you just have to copy the league folder.
Thats one thing i hate about the update on steam. It overwrites my logos.

if they are on teh same network, share the saved game folder.

then, on the "2nd" installation, point to the shared folder. you won't have to constantly copy the league back and forth this way. both computers would have to be on, of course.
