Title: Copying saves between gamer profiles?
Post by: originalz on February 28, 2009, 06:51:50 AM

So, I want to copy my save data to another gamer profile so I can use it with that profile.  The 360 copy thing says it'll change the owner of the data if I do that, and that I won't be able to earn achievements anymore with it.

I don't really care about not getting achievements on the account I'm bringing it to, but I don't want to really transfer ownership or anything.  I still want the main data to be on my main account, and I want to keep earning achievements on it.  I dunno exactly how this works, will copying it mess anything up on my main account?

I copied fable 2 data over to a dummy acct to back it up and still got achievements in my main profilezm but I don't remember getting a warning screen like that

Well, sounds good enough to me.  Maybe it'll only transfer ownership and mess things up if I move it, although the screen appears whether I want to move or copy.  Ah well, maybe I'll wait until I get enough achievements out of it just to be safe...

I'll dick around with it after I'm done with Killzone, I have like 910 in the game so I don't care if I fuck it up. Though I guess there'd be no way to test it unless I shoot a few dozen gargoyles.
