Mac registration = Windows registration

Post by henebry »

I'm primarily a Mac user, and I'm planning to play the game on my Mac laptop.

But I'm eager to play NOW, so I'm considering downloading and playing the game for the next two weeks on a PC laptop that I have access to.

Here's my 2 questions:
1. If I install the game and register it on the PC, will I later be able to transfer the registration to my Mac?

2. Is it possible to transfer saved game files from the PC to the Mac?

Yes and Yes. The one registration number will allow you to activate any of the OS formats, and the save files are OS independent so they can be transferred between machines.

I am playing on my PC (Windows7) but will be going to my Mac as soon as the DVD gets here.
I have searched for the save game files with no luck. Where are they in there?
I'll want to transfer them to my Mac.
Thanks.......

Check the Windows support forum. I know there are a few places there where that's been answered. I'm a complete Mac-head, so I have no idea. ;-)

At the main menu, click on the line that says "Copyright 2010 Basilisk Games..." and it will tell you where your saved games are located.
