Game Saves - Noob

Joho916 · 04-14-2018, 08:38 AM

Would like to save game (season) to memory stick so I can play on multiple devices. Where can I find the game saves folder for Mac? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Joho, I don't know Mac but somebody will come along soon to answer your question. Below is where mine is on PC.

I am going to ask a few more questions on your behalf:

How is it playing this game with a league on a memory stick? Does the game lag? Does it take a long time for it to load and save?
Will it take a long time to transfer and set up initially? How about when I want to back it up someplace else (as I know I should because memory sticks can fail)?

Here are my partial answers to that but we should wait for more experts to come along and lend their advice:

I think that, unless you have the latest computer equipment and memory stick, you may notice a lag in the game because the computer will not be as quick and efficient calling up files from, and saving them to, a memory stick than a hard drive.
It is going to take a LONG time to copy all of your league files to and from your memory stick. It's not the file size; it's the number of files. My league is not even a year old, and it's already got over 25,000 files!

It's doable, I suppose, but you'd better have a good Mac and stick!

I like the idea of being able to play the game on the thumb drive and only need to use one licence . Admittedly never tried that and unfortunately it wont work as those of us who would love to use that thumb drive on the cellphone or tablet for the thumbdrive obviously wont work on it as well as the software at least on cellphone wont be compatible for it.

I so would love this so I can keep playing the game while I am away (at work)

On the opening screen, click on "Settings" at the bottom of the screen. Click on the "Troubleshooting" tab, and then click on "Open folder containing saved games." Then copy the saved game you want to your memory stick. Make sure to put it back in the same folder on your other device, and you're good to go!

It can take a while, depending on your Mac and on the size of your league.
