Re: Thank God For SE IV.
I traveled about the same route. I joined a players group and we ended up with a nice city. I found a niche for myself as kindof an entertainer (doing real songs and jokes, not just the pre-programmed ones) and being a delivery guy betwen our player city and the game-built main city. Oh yeah, I also invented a "surveyers library" with creative use of a sales bot.
Still, at some point (I think I got sick or something) I fell off for awhile. I realized most of my stuff was gone and decided it wasnt worth going back.
All in all its not bad as an ongoing world for a virtual life. I think thats part of the problem that MMORPGs are fighting now. If its exciting, then its not a realistic world. And if its realistic then its not exciting. The word "virtual" means almost as good as. And virtual work, is still work.

2.4 gigs is a lot of space for any ONE game.

My SE4 1.91 folder takes 3.2 GB... the SE4 1.84 folder takes 2.99 GB. The SE4 1.49 folder takes up 825 MB. That is 7.0 GBs total. 2.4 GB for SWG? Pfft. |

Re: Thank God For SE IV.
about 600-800 megs. Largest folder, I think, is NeverWinter Nights, at 5.88gigs. No idea how it got that big.
What's the difference between size and size on disk and how come there can be huge differences between them?
