Heya guys,

I'm looking for a utility to make guild wars portable (making it able to run it off a USB-stick). I've only found this but the dl link is dead

http://portableapps.com/node/16849

Can anyone help me finding the real deal?

Thanks in forward!

Try U3 from san disk.

copy the gw file onto a usb stick.
program files>guild wars>right click on file>copy.
go to memory stick and paste.
when u put the mem stick into a pc go to the file run gw exe and biingo.

if u want to run the actual process of a mem stick then U3 from sandisk may work

GW is perfectly portable, if you overlook that it writes a few strings to the registry. No personal details so if it doesn't bother you.. just copy the files to any USB memory. Preferrably a very fast USB memory.

why not an external 2.5" hardddive? They're small enough to put in your pocket, fast enough to run games, bigger than flash drives and can usually be powered from USB alone.

i have tried this and it asks me to install when trying it on a different pc that i havent played on yet. i would also like to try this u3 program if it works, i was trying mattys multiloader thinking that it faked out the registry to open more then one copy so why cant it fake out the reg to open just one a different pc. but it didnt work LOL>

The install is only needed first time, just run it and install it to your external harddrive :-)
Or create a .reg file to patch the GW registry data to bypass the install completely.

You drag it onto the stick, and play it from the stick anywhere. It is not any simpler than that. There is no fooling with the registry, no problems.
