playing off a flash drive?

[Semaj]

i have a 2gig flash drive that i use for school. now, my drafting/3d modeling classes are boring because im already familliar with the programs.


could i run Fiesta off my flash drive? LMAO*

That sounds hardcore. As long as the computer you plug into meets the requirements I can't see why not. :P

[Semaj]

i donno if it does, ill have to check ;)


ah, the wonderfull world of bordom at college lol

[otakunorth]

no, the computer you pluged the flash drive into would have to have a fiesta regerstry and know to read it off of the drives address, and if you did get that to work it would be extreamly slow off a use drive

[Yoyo-Illuser]

What a bummer...I was thinking about doing that myself now...Oh well....

[Deedolith]

it depend if Fiesta load everything it need from the hard drive or not. I only suspect loading and zonning times beeing long, other than that, you shouldn't have much troubles.


As for the registry issue, just run the installer on each comps, and overwrite the files in your flash drive each times.

Fiesta Online runs fine off of a removable USB storage device in my experience.

[anarchy_]

it can work.

only problem might be getting around ur school firewall.

[wisepimp]

it runs, fiesta would never be popular enough for them to bother to block it.

Some schools automatically have ports blocked.

like with some peoples Anti-Virus agent, you need to manually unblock/allow access.

Id say no. You would need an internet connection that doesnt block out games, and a teacher that isnt a complete ***.

Internet connections don't block out games, Network Firewalls do.

Depends, but if this was in college/Uni, then the teacher wouldn't care :cool:

it wont work for me. it just says that i need the startIndex thing and i dont know where that is.

In theory (and my experience) it does in fact work. Now the problem there is I dont think 2 gb is enough. My boyfriend had a larger flash drive, I dont know how big, it was basically a mini external harddrive. Since our school blocked Oustpark.com, he had downloaded the Fiesta installer onto the drive (because the school apparently didnt block anything downloaded through the installer, just the website). I know I couldnt fit the installer on my flash drive (1gb an 2gb drives) but he could on his. Granted each installation took about 30-45 minutes at a time to install + patch, but it was better than nothing.

In theory, if you were able to get the game to install to the flash drive (by selecting a folder in the flash to download to as opposed to the program files), and the flash drive was large enough - it should work. I might actually end up trying that myself sometime, since the computers I use have labels everywhere saying that you really shouldnt go downloading huge programs to them.
