Hey noobfc, you suggested the fix above to somebody else's question before on moving the Steam directory to another drive. Any idea how to split up Steam games across drives and still work, e.g some games on C:, some games on D: ? Or is there any way to specify a different install directory when you install a new game? Tks!

hey guys sorry for the newb ques, but is it possible to extract a copy of a downloaded game into a pendrive for backup? I plan to reformat my comp and save the hassle of redownloading tens of gigagbytes of games..

I am also wishing for some repeat of previous sales tomorrow.

Semper Fi, I wants J00000oooo!

Hahaha... well, you can see if 1 of the parties that reserved a spot for the 4-pack is willing to share his Steam login for you though there will be trust issue involved.

Oh, you've purchased the 4-pack then I guess. I don't think there's anyway you can get rid of it since it has been registered into your Steam account.

Compare to the old Serious Sam? There's a whole lot of difference in the graphics.

The first Serious Sam was directX7 engine, so there's no any programmable shaders or any dynamic effects. Everything is pre-rendered onto the texture, the lighting effects and shadows are all pre-rendered. If you take away a light source, the shadow and lighting effects on the wall will still remain because they are already pre-rendered on the wall texture.

In Serious Engine 3, most of the lighting are dynamic real time lighting, shadows are real time shadow. Of course there are many other effects as well, using pixel shader, advance reflection and other graphical effects.

And there's also real time physics.

The only serious sam game that is close to current engine is the 3rd one, Serious Sam 2.

Well as you guys might know, NASA released a game called Moonbase Alpha for free on Steam.

Me, Prasys and ecam from KGM decided to give it a go. Surprisingly it was a fun experience being an astronaut. Really needs teamwork.

here's a picture of ecam's robot fail because it got stuck on the tubes.


should give it a try too. playing with 6 people would be fun
