oh actual Steam question...shocking, I know

Can you install just 1 game on a seperate drive, say a ssd, and the rest on your main drive?

I know steam lets you choose drives now but Im not sure if its on a per game basis

 

[Volimar]

I feel really uncomfortable having so many poors who know nothing in this thread. Not sure how others feel but I really think it would be better if there was a minimum hardware requirement to post in this thread. Nothing too crazy by PC standards, perhaps a single GTX Titan Z?

I'm a know nothing.

It's not my fault. People try to explain things to me, but...

Yes.
You can choose a new drive when starting any download.

This gif from the Mordor Performance thread is rather cute.

Steam > Settings > Downloads > Steam Library Folders. Allows you to have multiple library spaces, and every time you download a game, it'll ask you which one. Dunno which it will default to, mine defaults to my harddrive rather than SSD.

 

[Rhaknar]

Yes.
You can choose a new drive when starting any download.

ok cool, I want to install 1 game and 1 game only on that ssd.

Spoiler

Yes, its that game

. How big is windows again? like 80gigs?

 

[Haunted]

They haven't been available for over a year on that site.

Nope they aren't, Rockstar pulled them out.

That's what I get for not checking properly! Shows how much time has passed since I downloaded them from that site. >_>

Not really.
A fresh install is like... 20 gigs, max, if we include some standard needed programs.

well...youre 20 gigs max! >_<

Im such a noob

Fuck are you on about. That standard is ridiculously low. Requirement to post in this thread should be at least Dual Quadro K6000.

These middle class posters are the worst thinking they are doing it right... they don't even know bout the secret forum here on Gaf let alone the GTX 50 bajillion... Jeesh ;P

My W8.1 is 15.9GB right now, installed two months ago.

Shall I toss my measly 3gb into the fires of mount doom?

What is this? Have I allowed you to directly address me? Avert your eyes and go play Quake 1 or something.

 

[tmarg]

Mordor benchmark maxed on a 970

looks like a PS2 game to be to be honest, disgusting

Sir, I'd like to buy your PS2.

 

[Jørdan]

Should go with monitor resolution instead, nothing more irritating than failing that one.

 

[iosefe]

GTA 1 and 2 are freeware at this point, they're not on Steam.

http://www.rockstargames.com/classics/

but unavalable.

i'm sad because i lose my files, and can't retrieve it.

You laugh, but until February of next year I'll be rocking a rig equivalent to a PS3/360. The Witcher 2's art direction and the sweet chance to see Dark Souls in 60fps pushed me over the edge- along with Civ BE.

 

[Htown]

So what's good that's on sale this week? Was thinking about picking up Pool Nation for a buck.

but unavalable.

i'm sad because i lose my files, and can't retrieve it.

If it's anything like other freeware games that disappeared, like Psi Ops or Command and Conquer, it's probably still available on some old fileplanet equivalent out there if you get googling.

though I have no idea if they still work

 

[Li Kao]

This easy. You don't need an SLI bridge but you need your main GPU in the top PCIe slot and then put the GPU you want to run PhysX off of in any other PCIe slot on you board (preferable spaced out so both cards can breath a little). And then select that card to do PhysX in Nvidia Control Panel like so.

Mmh, but didn't you say that in some games this whole second card for physx could produce slowdowns ? And will the second card always pump up energy or will it take juice just when needed ?
Just trying to evaluate the interest of it all for me.

they are not available anymore in their site
but you can download them from steam

 

[RionaaM]

Snooze you lose

I'm still sad about not getting GTA 1 and 2 when I bought the franchise pack from Nuuvem a few weeks ago :/

 

[Turfster]

If you got one of the subs that included them, yes.
Not all subs include them, though. See above.
It's a bit of a crapshoot to find one these days.
The fact that the gamersgate pack now has them is a change from the last time it went on sale there, for example.

 

[jshackles]

Welp...

 

[GaussTek]

Damn, I don't remember where I bought the GTA package last year, but I didn't get GTA 1 and 2 (and, don't want to spend $8 just for those two) =(

 

[Kiru]

How long will the GTA sale last? Really want to get all games before the keys get replaced with ones without 1&2. Still going to offer 4 keys to anyone who can get me the pack. :/

 

[Turfster]

Welp...

Brilliant.

 

[LurkerPrime]

Welp...

Ain't it purdy?

Looking forward to more Platinum goodness.

To be clear, the Korra game doesn't come out until October 21st. Shadownet was talking about the new season of the show starting on Friday.

Got it.

I'm on complete media blackout on everything relating to Season 4. I want to wait to see whats new in Season 4. The final season. This week is going to be so awesome with Persona 4 Ultimax, Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishments, Shadow of Mordor, Korra Season 4, and I guess Super Smash Brothers.. for the 3DS.

Spoiler

HA!

That's the one in the picture that's labeled as "Spotlight". It hides/shows the Weeklong Deals, Midweek Madness, and Weekend Deals.

Ahh, fantastic! Going to be a huge improvement and save constant scrolling for me, 1024x768 ain't fun. Thank you <3

Yeah, having played the 3DS demo, I feel like waiting for the Wii U version is the way to go. Of course I'll have to buy a Wii U first, but details.

HA!

It is a crazy week. I'm only picking up P4A Ultimax and Shadow of Mordor (and of course watching Korra), but that already feels like a lot.

Not bad, with a few settings toned down, my 770 can do 60 fps easy.

Deitus we should have a Legend of Korra Party. We can watch the episode together and talk about it on Steam

Also can someone give me a summary of the Mordor Performance Review Thread? We don't technically need a 6GB GPU to run it on High or Max do we? Whats going on here?
I have a GTX 760 Twin Frozr (2GB)
