How to do a Full Install by Jake
Copy the folders off of the cd's to your system locally. Then edit
the torment.ini file that is in the torment directory. The top part
should look like this:
[Alias]
HD0:=e:\Torment
CD1:=F:\CD1\
CD2:=F:\CD2\
CD3:=F:\CD3\
CD4:=F:\CD4\
CD5:=F:\CD5\
If you copied the folders from the cd's to the following directory:
c:\torment\
Then your ini file should be changed to look like this:
[Alias]
HD0:=e:\Torment
CD1:=c:\torment\CD1\
CD2:=c:\torment\CD2\
CD3:=c:\torment\CD3\
CD4:=c:\torment\CD4\
CD5:=c:\torment\CD5\
UPDATE:
Got this from a reader:
WARNING: You'll probably need a bit of extra drive space for this,
becaue the .bif files probably aren't the only thing Torment stores
in the cache dir. So, this is not for the gigabyte-impaired.
hi,
i think i found an improvement to the 'regular' full-install,
which minimizes loading time.
just perform the following steps:
- move all ar*.bif files from the cd2-4 folders to the cache-folder
- edit torment.ini and set CacheSize to 1000
this change should make the game use the files without copying
them first for caching.
Thanks go to Christof for the hint!
