Back up saves on PC port - is it possible?

edited January 2014 in MPQ Tips and Guides
I got MPQ through Steam, and had thought it would be bound to my Steam account. Seems not. I use my Steam account on another computer and just found it thinks I have a completely different profile. Or something. Is there a way to transfer my saves to my other computer?

    Just the manual stone age method for now. The save is located in C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Demiurge Studios\Marvel Puzzle Quest
    Pop that onto the other computer and you'll load your save.
  • It worked!

    \o/

    You're awesome, I don't care what they've been saying.

    (I think I only had to copy the mpq_save.dat file, incidentally.)

    For your save, yes. The advantage of copying the Data directory is that it'll also snag any minor patches so you don't have to redownload on a fresh install. Not that the minor patches are that big, but still.

    I'm thinking of buying the Steam version. I'm already playing on my tablet. Would the 2 accounts be linked?

    No. Not at the current time.
