iPad & PC synchrony

Post by hugo_slith »

Good evening,

Just a question: How can I do to sync single player savegames in PC and iPad (steam version)? I´ve begun a campaign in iPad and I´d like to go on playing in my PC.

Thanks in advance.

As far i know there is no way as it's impossible to access your save game on an IPad in the first place. Apple is preventing you from doing this. If you "jailbreaked" your IPad you probably can copy the save games files over to your PC but even then i am not sure if they are compatible.

Hello.

This issue bothers me for a while now, too. I would like to start campaigns on one device and continue on the other (and vice versa of course).
The argument that "there is no way as it's impossible to access your save game on an IPad" just is not true. How do all the other app developers manage to let people generate files in their iPad apps and then make the files accessible via iTunes for the outside world? Nobody would complain about this way of file exchange with the PC game.
I would really like to get an answer on that from the Panzer Corps development guys.

Thanks.

It is indeed possible to make files accessible in iTunes, but it is a very cumbersome way to move files about and so we chose not to implement it. We do have an integrated save syncing approach on our wishlist, but not timeline at this point.

Cheers

Well, any way -be it cumbersome or not- seems better to me than not be able to sync at all...

Numerous other iPad apps offer Dropbox exchange as well. Would that be an option to exchange the savegames with the "outside world"?
