USB Pens

UKRedSox · 07-11-2007, 03:11 PM

Have two computers, one desktop, one laptop.

I travel a bit for work and was wondering if I have a saved game on my laptop is it easily transferrable to the desktop using a USB memory pen.

I am guessing all you would need to do is copy the entire league folder onto the pen and then paste into desktop My Documents folder etc etc etc

Anyone done this successfully?

Am I missing anything in the procedure?

Thanks for any help received

I can't imagine that that wouldn't work, provided OOTP is licensed on both machines.

That would work, but you might want to ZIP the game directory up before you copy it. There are a whole bunch of small files, and copying them individually could take a loooooong time.

I do know that if you have a customized injury database, you'd need to copy that over; otherwise guys with 'broken jaw' or 'dengue fever' on one computer might have some brand new problem on the other computer. The situation might be similar for certain other .txt or .xml files not stored in the .lg folder, but this only matters if you customize these things.
