Does anything exist?

Need to synchornise game folders with mods etc across local network so as I add mods to my gaming PC, they will automatically update on another PC without having to manually copy/paste.

Thanks.

I use Vice Versa to automatically sync/backup my stuff to another PC. Works well in conjunction with the scheduler they have also.

Is that it?

Mmm...

I have tried the above software but only allows to upload to one specific folder.

I am trying to share game saves across multiple PC's so need to be able to specify different folders on remote PC's for different file transfers, i that makes sense?

Kind of like a local version of Steam cloud.

why cant you do it via the net, and use dropbox ?

Your dropbox folder can only be one location.

I need to create multiple "jobs" for different games with them going to a different destination.

It only allows one source for files as well.

Could try Windows synctoy.

THANK YOU.

That is exactly what I needed, does exactly what I want.

Such a small and simple idea for an app but perfect for what I need.

Surprised they have not built that into Windows as a feature.

if you mean, that the dropbox folder only syncs things within that folder, there is a fix around that lets your sync files anywhere on your pc

if you read up in the dropbox forums, youll see it..

What I need to do for example is synchronise C:\Steam\Saves\Meatboy on PC1 with C:\Steam\Saves\Meatboy on PC2... I then also wish to do the same with C:\Steam\Saves\Bioshock...

I was not sure Dropbox would allow me to setup multiple folders to synch to at the same time, i.e set more than one target folder.
