Portability?

    Is there any way to make your copy of Dredmor be portable? I'd love to play it when I'm out of the house, but I can't really go around installing Steam on everything, and Desura looks like it's a similar setup to it, too.

    Any ideas, or am I out of luck without a laptop?

    Just copy it over from Steam's folder?

    Yes, it works.

    Awesome! I'll need to try that, thanks.

    But the game saves stuff to Documents/My Documents. How does it handle that on portable storage?

    I would assume it simply creates a new folder in the documents of whatever machine you run it from.

    You can copy those from their usual location onto the portable device and then copying them onto the computer you want to play it on. Either way, it's just copying one folder that shouldn't have more than a few megabytes.

    I just tried this today and I thought it was so cool that I could take Dredmor with me on a flash drive. Thanks a lot, everyone!
