hi!
i've been having a problem with installation of GTA V.
due to lack of free space on drive C:\ the game (KAOS installer) can't unpack temporary stuff to do the installation process. i missed the note in *.nfo file that the game needs over 100GB free space on C:\ for temp files.
the thing is i can only get 30GB of free space on C:\ drive. i can't do the partition merging because of the stuff i have on other partition (unless you know any 100% method to merge partitions without the loss of data on them).
anyone has any idea how to deal with it?
GTA V temp installation files issue
yeah i know this, i want to install it on D:\ drive where i have a lot of free space so that's not the issue - you misunderstood me.
the issue is that the KAOS' GTAV installation software first unpacks the whole content (over 100GBs) into temporary directory on C:\ drive by default, and then it installs actual game (around 60GBs) in the destination path (in my case D:\ drive), the problem is lack of free space on C:\ drive

we are currently working on new installer that will fix this issue so it no longer uses your temp dir on c drive
gtav is the only game that does use abit of the c drive you prob close to the limit with 30gb free on c drive
if u dont mind waiting a few days ill post a new installer just for gtav

yo, but wait.... when you release the new installer - will i have to download the whole ~36GBs package once again??
and BTW:
and BTW:
i'd say that's a large understatement, given that the TEMPORARY space for installation of the game takes nearly TWICE of its final capacity (meaning 106GBs of temporary install, and 63GBs of final install)... ALL DUE RESPECT OF COURSEgtav is the only game that does use abit of the c drive you prob close to the limit with 30gb free on c drive

no you wont need to download it all again just the install.exe thats only a few mb
and all that temp space is not used by the c drive since most of it is done on the drive u tell it to install to its only part of it that uses the c drive

I wish I had read this thread earlier. I have only approximately 3.4 gigs available on C:\ - then again now that even the new installer is not working properly on my computer, I may have to go for "Save me, Jebus!"

the new installer should not use c drive anymore we fixed it awhile ago we also fixed the exec of bat file since batch did not run on some systems
im still unsure why its so messed up on your system tho im still looking into it
i noticed its abit out on win xp aswell but not by much only 2px to high or low depending if u using normal theme or classic
