Hard drive space required for 4.2 installation?
« on: August 07, 2012, 02:17:04 am »
I'm trying to install 4.2, but installation fails because my C drive (which has nothing but windows on it) doesn't have enough space to hold what appears to be temporary files for patching maps.

How much space does installation need?

At least 500-600 MB of patch files

I had about 1.1 GB free on the C: drive and it failed.

If you have space, then you may have some sector issues. run chkdsk in command prompt.

Maybe a corrupted download?
Try again with a new download of the patch.

So sorry, but I stupidly left out one detail (which is actually apparent in the screenshot): I'm trying to install 4.2 on to my F: drive, where Steam is installed. That drive has enough space to install GE:S, but my C: drive doesn't have enough space to store the temporary patch files.

I'll probably end up extending the C: drive with a partition manager or something.

Hey, Wake.

Nothing much, just getting back into play GE:S for the past couple months.

Issue's fixed now... C: drive needed about 1.6 GB free for me.
