fuego Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Hi i Have two Macs, a Macbook Pro and a IMac. I know it is possible to play the same save alternatively on both machines and Steam should give the possibilities to find the most recent save on both Machines, correct? but often when I save a game on a machine I don't found the save on the other one. After saving I close everything, including Steam, switch off the computer and, later, minutes, hours or days after, I restart on the other machine, launch Steam (online) look for the latest save to play with but I don't find it, why? What is wrong in my procedure? I hope I was clear enough. Thanks everybody. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Are you saving the game to the steam cloud or to the machines? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuego Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 I've tried both, and saving on the machines seemed to work a little. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuego Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 but anyhow it worked only a couple a times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrazT Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I have always favoured saving on the hard drive where I can see it, but that is a personal choice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clavin99 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I play on two Macs and you need to save the game in the cloud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt ex SEGA Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Are you logged into the same Steam account on each machine? And are you looking in the right folder for your savegames - I think the default is to look on the local drive, not the cloud? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuego Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 Of course Matt, same account (i only have one) no doubt. I've never touched the destination folders. it's odd because sometimes I succeed in switching, sometimes no. Perhaps SI should give a look also in FM 2017 that I don't have yet but will buy soon. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
