Offline Updater

Is there a possibility of getting an offline updater? I live in the middle of nowhere (no internet) and install games where there is internet and it's a pain to haul it somewhere to update a game. A reply would be much appreciated.

 

no, because for an offline updater, the update files would already have to be on your computer, but there not, it has to download from the internet, therefore, its impossible

 

That's like asking for Steam to update your games when you don't have any internet.

 

In the politest way possible, don't reply if you have no knowledge.

There are other delivery mediums than Internet. I can download the update somewhere else, transfer it to a storage medium, then copy it to my gaming PC. How is this not a simple concept?

 

Copy all the game files to external storage then run update.exe when you get to a place with internet. Copy the files back to the machine you are playing the game on and there you go.
I apologise, I thought you were just asking for the impossible like quite a few people do around here.

 

if you have a pc in another palce, then yes, if you mean just taking a hdd with you, and have it magicly download the files, then NO, stop asking for the impossible

 

...
Seriously?

 

You have just answered your own question. Stick BeamNG on a memory stick, run update.exe on another PC, go home, copy the BeamNG folder over your old BeamNG folder. Done.


Otherwise, no. There is no other way. And the other guys are not replying without any knowledge, I would say that if anything you are unnecessarily insulting their intelligence when they state true fact.

 

WAIT, NO, dont, unless its your computer, and you have used it at home, do NOT, use some random pc to download it, the beamng seriel server's may think its someone else, and ban your key

 

Go read the BeamNG FAQ then... Allows multiple machine installs.

 

Yeah but not too many... If you install it on like 40 pcs, they will bann the key.

 

I don't think there's any other way to update without internet. Maybe copy the update.exe and paste it, then disconnect from network and run the update. If it don't work, post it.

 

*ban
Who ever said anything about 40 PCs? there haven't even been 40 updates.

 

This thread gave me cancer.

OP, your concept made perfect sense to me. I think it's a brilliant idea for the mods to release update packages. Download the files that the update is replacing on a computer with internet, put them on a USB flash drive, plug the flash drive into your gaming PC, drag, drop, replace, and play. It is totally possible. It's up to the devs to implement it which I don't think they will :|

 

This thread is going downhill quickly.

 

Is that a joke? You just cannot get an update without the internet, this can be closed now...
