maibock Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 I have a PC and two laptops both capable of running games, which I have a portable drive for sharing games and other files between them. Is there any way I could potentially install the game to run properly on the portable drive so I don't have to fumble with installing Vintage Story and transferring save files and such between the installations?

Hal13 Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 yes? haven't tried to use my folder on another pc, but thanks to streetwind i was able to install several version alongside each other with everything the game normally puts on the systemdrive in the version folder, hence it should work to play on a different pc... you might want to look into the following topics: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daretmavi Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 It work on Linux without problems. I just extract the tag.gz archive and run run.sh Not sure on Windows, but probably you need to run Vintagestory.exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daretmavi Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 It works on Windows (https://cdn.vintagestory.at/gamefiles/stable/vs_archive_1.15.9.tar.gz) And with the "--dataPath" it should work. Alternatively you can always run your local server and connect to it locally (IP 127.0.0.1).https://cdn.vintagestory.at/gamefiles/stable/vs_server_1.15.9.tar.gz - extract - and update config files server.sh USERNAME='your-user-name' VSPATH='...path-to-server-dir.../vs_server_1.15.9/' DATAPATH='...path-to-server-Data-dir.../vs_server_1.15.9/Data/' Data/serverconfig.json - if you copy your existing World Data "Mods", "...path-to-mods-dir.../vs_server_1.15.9/Data/Mods" ], "SaveFileLocation": "...path-to-saves-db.../vs_server_1.15.9/Data/Saves/default.vcdbs", 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is actually useful too, since I'm planning on making a small server for my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
