How to Play Vintage Story with Friends (No VPN or Server Needed!)
By savesyncgames
  • Stop paying for dedicated servers or dealing with VPNs just to play Vintage Story with your friends
  • SaveSync makes co-op simple. With LAN Sync, you can easily connect and play with your Steam friends without any setup or port forwarding
  • When you share your save file with a friend, SaveSync keeps it automatically updated, both of you always have the latest version of your world. You can jump in and play together seamlessly, and if one player goes offline, the other can continue from the same progress
  • SaveSync also works as a cloud save, keeping your Vintage Story worlds safely backed up and always accessible.
