So, I want to use the new CNet cloud feature so I can move my data around between computers. The problem is, I'm not quite sure if it's working. I've turned the feature on, and my profile says I have cloud data. However, I don't see any indication in the game itself that I'm using cloud sync, and looking at my profile, it doesn't seem as if there have been any updates.

Also there's nothing in the help about it.

I can't give you any advice with the cloud save feature since I haven't actually used it, but I would recommend simply making a copy of your .dat files, moving them to some external medium or uploading them somewhere and then putting them back on the computer you want to move the data to.

If you do this you can simply install TSS on your other computer and move the files to their proper directory and it'll be like you never changed computers in the first place!

Some instructions on how to do that in this secret tag:

Moving data from computer to computer aside, backing up those files may also be a good idea if you want to avoid some kind of horrible DROD data loss disaster.
