Can You play SRO off a cd

Post by Hiredsin »

Like install it onto the cd. And play it off there. I cant play right now and cant install it onto my parents comp.

Installing doesn't just mean unpacking files. It means you need to create registry values, etc. If you needed to update SRO, how can you overwrite old files on a CD? Burn it?

Installing it on a USB drive would have made you look less stupid but it's a little too late for that.

Edit: Need something like a portable hard drive for that, don't think there's any memory sticks that can hold that much.

You can install it to a USB drive if you have enough space. I have it on my iPod. I don't think SRO really uses the registry since I've been able to get two copies of SRO on my comp by using copy and paste and both copies work fine.

2 gig usb flash drives are cheap now. Especially with the upcoming Thanksgiving day sales you'd find them for under 40 dollars

No.

You can store the client-side files though.
