looking at how streamyx capped the international lines and most people having slow download speeds from steam server, perhaps it would be nice to setup a thread about steam game files sharing so folks can get the files from one another instead of waiting for the slow download?

basically, we list members who would want to participate and their preferred locations.
so they can:
- let fellow steam gamers visit their homes to download from their hard drives
- just burn the steam backups into DVD-Rs then pass by hand
- offer to burn steam backups onto DVD-Rs then courier via pos ekspres / laju
- offer to meet up somewhere and offer to copy files from external hard drive
- etc

let me start.

H = can visit home to download steam game files off hard drive
D = can collect steam backups DVD-Rs by hand
P = can courier steam backups DVD-Rs via pos ekspres / laju
O = can meet up somewhere to download steam game files off external hard drive

notes:
1. i use steam calculator to list the games because it loads faster than steam community
2. i suppose folks will want some reimbursement for the
- burning of DVD-Rs of steam backups
- time spent hogging their computers downloading files
regarding these, perhaps interested parties can discuss the rates via PM?

forum thread is easier for future referencing lor.

bandwidth is not cheap, you manyak kaya ke?

same like copying files from hard drive at home, this would be time consuming. all right i will add that up.

well yes it is not cheap since steam game files are quite big, with games having 10gb files average.

please provide your steam id also else ppl dunno what games u have.

well i think it depends on games.
for mass effect 2 i think the DLCs are saved in your "my documents" folder.
and if they are not authorized to use the DLC then the DLC files will just not work perhaps?

what is a share point exactly?

need username and password. O_O

kenot. >_<

meh ur username was steam only before edited it.
now can liao.

i got

Half Life 2
Half Life 2 Ep 1
Half Life 2 Ep 2
Fallout 3 GOTY (non steam)

for fallout 3, i think you can just unzip the files into the respective steam folder, then let it verify the files slowly, re-download any other required files etc.

ah, since username got them all, best you get it from him oh.

but for the fallout 3 goty, if you got non steam dvd, you can install into other folder first, then copy the files over into steam folder.

hmmm so far only got 10 people who registered themselves in this network.
no more people ar?


also, is there a problem of win 7 cannot read DVD-Rs burnt in win xp?
