Killing Floor question

[Le Rouge]

How do I move my profile (perks etc.) from one PC to another?
 
[bought it on Steam sale, and looks quite good]

I don't know for sure but I do know this:

If you right-click one of your games (in the steam window), you can choose to backup a game or games.  So you could back it up to a network drive or pen drive or something and then restore to the other PC?

Perhaps someone else knows a better way or indeed a better way of explaining since I have never 'restored', just backed up?

I will have it installed on two machines, so only need to move my "identity".

[Jabbs]

Just the identity? Then you just need to install Steam and download again?

You can install steam on the second PC, then restore your games using the backup/restore facility.  So, rather than download the game to the second PC, you could restore from the backup made from the first PC?

I think someone like Kreg would know better though

I would think that game saves might be in %APPDATA% or something like that in your Documents folder.

Just worked out that when you do a backup of a game or games using Steam (right-click and choose 'Backup game files') the backup procedure also creates a steambackup.exe file in the backup set.

Double clicking this file will then bring up a small window where you can choose 'Restore..'

Don't forget to locate your game saves.

Hope this helps

What I mean by "identity" is the perks I have accumulated so far, for instance.
I don't care about saved games, as I am not playing the "solo" missions.
 
Do you (or anyone else reading this thread) own it? Fancy a game later tonight?
 
EDIT:
Turned out the answer is much simple: Perks and achievements are stored on the Steam servers, and so as long as you are logging in with the same Steam account, they will be stored wherever you play. [as got it on the KF forums]
