Is there any chance to portabilize Transcendance?
So it will run from a thumb drive/external media?
http://portableapps.com/
Just curious.

it is already portable, just put the game folder in the portableapps folder in your drive and an icon should show up in the menu

Fair enough, I'll let them know.
Great game by the way.
I originally found out about it from a MaximumPC disc I received with the Mag way back when. .98 or .99 IIRC. the game really needs more publicity.

Hi! saw you when you were just registered - you got really lucky XD
As a result, I was able to activate your account within minutes of you registering; normally people have to wait several days now before one of us administrators can go through and find all the valid users in the sea of spambots.
Before we were promoted this summer, back when george (and gambit, who is rather innactive on the forums) were the only administrators, activation could take from days to months, and in a few cases, years.
XD
Just thought it was funny how lucky you got it.
Anyways, yes, transcendence is very portable already
Got it on my flashdrive with me in fact. XD

I'll drop my 2 cents here, I found this game originally on a portable apps site, it is free except it rights one thing to the registry - saying it was run (or something like that) so its effectively portable.

I am interested if you might be willing to host Transcendance on PortableApps.com

it is unimportant, which is why the game can actually be considered portable. heh just letting you all know about the one regkeyWolfy wrote:that one thing to the registry is wholy unimportant as far as I can tell.

When Transcendance is started, It pulls the name from my windows user name. And saves the .SAV file under the same "name.SAV"Ttech wrote:it is unimportant, which is why the game can actually be considered portable. heh just letting you all know about the one regkeyWolfy wrote:that one thing to the registry is wholy unimportant as far as I can tell.
Why?
