Cloud saving? Possible?

Scenario: I want to play BGEE and BG2EE on my PC at home, as well as my tablet (Samsung Tab S - Android) at work, but I absolutely do not want to be running 2 totally different saves. Is there viable way anyway to cloud save so I can play at home, go to work and pick up the same save on my tablet?

This is a bit of a killer for me if I can't do this

    You can, but it will require a few minutes of set-up and an account on a cloud storage service such as OneDrive or Dropbox.

    Basically, what you'll do is indirectly synchronize your PC and your tablet's BG save folders via a third folder on the cloud. Both folders will be synced with the cloud folder, so that every time you save a game on your PC, it will be automatically be copied to your tablet and vice-versa.

    If that works for you, I can offer further help.

    The only other alternative you have is to plug in your tablet and copy the save before you leave the house. Then copy it back before you resume playing on the PC. On the long run that's more hassle than setting up the online link.

    @ Kilivitz: I'm using your method to sync saves between BGEE and my PC, but that won't work with BG2EE, right? The long hold on quicksave button hasn't been implemented yet has it?

    I would also love the Long Hold Save option on BG2EE so I can transfer it from my iphone to ipad, and back again. Am I on the wrong thread? Is there a petition I can sign elsewhere? :)
