Moving Computers

Modoki80

Hi,
I'm getting a new computer this weekend. Now in order to reinstall I can just re-download both episodes and re-enter my keycodes, correct? And is there anyway to move my save files? I am moving from iMac to iMac.
If I need to post any other specs to help with this let me know, and thanks in advance for any help.

I'm actually in a very similar situation. For my birthday I received a new laptop (Windows though, not Apple.) and my old Laptop is supposed to be for my father, whose current laptop is falling apart completely.

My elder brother is actually the one who purchased the game, and then gave me one of the activation codes. So, won't re-entering the code just mean using another of his three slots? And if those are already used up, (I think they are, in fact) then what? I know where my save files are on the old laptop, and I know where they go on the new one, I just need to know how to de-tach the games from one and attach them to the other.

Help please!

Buy your own copy.

Soooo no ideas? Transferring the games was easy but my save files didn't come with. Any way at all to retrieve these? I don't mind playing through again, but I was almost finished Ep 2. >.< (yes I am a slacker and yes I play too much WoW to really focus on other games )
-Thanks

You should be able to find where the saves are somewhere on the forum. I'm a 360 player myself so I'm afraid I can't help there, but it's definitely been discussed.

You're on an iMac, so these won't be exact, as they're for a PC, but they should be something like this:

C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\HotheadGames

That doesn't work at least on Vista (think XP may be like that)...

I am about to have a similar problem (computer is going to be going in for repairs and may get wiped) so I tried going to my user folder and there is no local settings folder. Also I bought my copy via steam so if anyone can give me some advice so I can backup my save files I would appreciate it.

I just bought the game last week and beat it today so I really don't want to lose my hard work on it.
