Can I store season on network for multiple machine use?

Mike Lowe · 04-10-2012, 11:34 PM

I'd love to have my solo league accesible on my laptop, work computer, and tablet without having to zip/upload everytime.

If I do something like create an "online league" for just me, is this possible.

How could this be possible if at all?

Install the game to a usb drive and take that with you to work,home wherever and you can play off of that will be alot easier then setting up an online league just for you

As for the tablet i don't think this version would work on one, ipad no chance as it's a different game not sure about andriod.

I was wondering if anybody has tried setting the save game path to Dropbox (or similar). That would give you up-to-date access from multiple machines, I think.

I don't know about the save path option on dropbox as not sure if it's meant to be used as that or even can be used as that, the read and writes that would be needed wouldn't really work in the cloud i don't think.

Still think the USB option would be the best and easiest, just take the drive with you to play

Ok going the flash drive route, here's my issue:

It installed what appears to be the stuff normally found on the C: under Program Files. However, I don't see anywhere that the stuff normally found in the My Documents area has gone.

Obviously, I'd need this to be on the flash drive as well so that I can keep my season, images, etc. with me on the flash.

Any ideas? It never prompted me aside from the general install location.

Are you talking about logos, ballparks, jerseys and such?

You have to set the path to the USB stick during install.

I did, and it installed to the flash. However, I don't see anywhere where there is a "Saved Games" folder or logos and stuff like that.

Ideally, I'd think if Dropbox were able to be used, that would revolutionize online leagues. I may not be thinking about this right, but I could see the application.

That's may be because the default for the Saved Games folder is in your Documents, which is easy to overlook. You may have to copy/paste that.

You only get 2gb Free on dropbox and you have to pay a monthly/yearly fee to upgrade, what happens when your league reaches 2gb?

I would love to see a cloud option with this game though. Would make it alot easier to play since I'm not always at 1 computer throughout the day.

Does Google Docs or some other Google App allow for something like this?

There's a way to do that with your data directory, which is what you have to do.

Not yet but Google Drive should be released soon.

Any resolve to this?

I am (as I type) copying over to a USB drive and was sitting here thinking about a cloud save or the possibility.
