I play my games at home and at work. In the past I have had two different parties going but now I would like to play the same game on both computers. If I have the same mods, patches, fixpacks etc. installed on both of them will I be able to e-mail my saved games back and forth? Or burn them to cd's and transport them back and forth? I am wondering if 1) is this possible and 2) am I just setting myself up for all sorts of problems.

if you have the exact same mods and what not, i don't think it would be any harder than transfering a game from multi to single player. I could potentially cause unforseen problems but i don't think it would. just be careful you don't want to bring home an item you computer doesn't have

Assuming both games are of the same version, patched correctly, and the same mods are installed on both (important: same installation order!), i foresee no problems. Just copy the relevant save folder (e.g., Baldur's Gate 2\Saves\SpongeVsMencar) from one computer to another. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I admit, I am lucky. 11 computers, high speed internet DSL, no boss, I'm the only one here on my shift. Baldurs Gate or Ironworks is what I do when I'm slow. The only downside is I have to work nights from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. Other than that my job rocks. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Damn, man, you play all the night and get paid for it!
I wish you luck with transfering.
