I recently bought Hero Lab for our household, and put the Primary license on my laptop with a secondary on my husband's computer. We were wondering if there is an easy way to move the information in the .user files from one computer to another without completely copying everything we both use back and forth, creating a hectic mess of filedom.
I love the system btw, it makes GM'ing work so much more streamlined! |

I posted a solution for this in another thread, happy to share the know-how. I use Dropbox to sync it over the web but if you're always going to be on the same network you could even use a windows share.
In Windows 7 - C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\data\pathfinder>mklink /H "My Custom Userfile.user" "c:\Path\To\My Dropbox\Hero Lab Resources\My Custom Userfile.user" Hardlink created for My Custom userfile.user <<===>> c:\Path\To\My Dropbox\Hero Lab Resources\My Custom Userfile.user In Mac OS X Terminal - mymacnameathfinder username$ ln '/Users/username/Dropbox/Hero Lab Resources/My Custom Userfile.user' './My Custom Userfile.user' I have found occasionally it will lose the link and stop updating, but I made a bat/sh file that just deleted the linked file then relinks it - C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\data\pathfinder>del "C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\data\pathfinder\My Custom Userfile.user" C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\data\pathfinder>mklink /H "My Custom Userfile.user" "c:\Path\To\My Dropbox\Hero Lab Resources\My Custom Userfile.user" |
