Full Install Size?

[Joe Shaw]

Being one of the hard drive impaired crowd, I need to clear some junk off to make room for CM. I noticed on another post that a full install is recommended, how large is that going to be?

Its around 100megs at least thats what it said on the battlefront.com web site.
Note:I dont know this for sure.

Yes actually Rob is right. The new Specs page on the official site now says 100MB instead of the 50MB it said until now.

That's pretty slim, considering that Baldur's Gate, on the standard install, dumped about 600MB worth of stuff onto my system.

I heard Steve mention to GhostOne "do a full install" which means that 100MB is the standard. Full install dumps things like sound files, maybe the editor, onto your hard drive to speed things up.

I'm betting a full install will run 200-250MB. Still a REALLY small footprint for a game of this depth. Even so, I'm going to have to clear some crap out of my pitifully small 3GB HD to make sure I don't run into swap-file and virtual-memory problems.

I guess it's time once again to wait for the house to be empty so I can transfer...umm...sensitive files onto the computer with the CD burner and transfer those...private...files onto CD.

I don't have the CD in front of me at the moment, so forgive me if these figures are a bit off, but ball-park they are:

Small: 60 MB
Medium: 120 MB
Full: 300 MB

Full install is 347MB folks. That is what it said when I installed it anyway.
