    Anyone know if you can switch the library to another drive with Epic? I emailed them and they basically said 'move your Fortnite folder to...'. When I said I didn't have Fornite they seemed baffled and said they didn't know so.
    Strange, I always get to choose exactly where to install my games on Epic. Drive, folder, etc - I just hit the big blue browse button if the default is not to my liking. It might be some leftover Windows 7 magic though; not touching Windows 10 until they give me total control (which will never happen).

    You're right, I didn't realise I could do that. But I wanted to move what I have too. But I'll make do with reinstalling stuff. Cheers.

    There's also a 10 dollar coupon thing atm, I'll probably put it towards Wattam.

  • Amen to Windows 7. Not giving mine up either.

    For Paid for Epic games, do they require the epic client to be running or can they be run without? The free games I’ve downloaded so far don’t require it (apart from Subnautica where they patched launcher requirement later, apparently).

    You can move Epic games. Just cut and paste the folder to whatever new folder you want, then uninstall.on the app. Then 'redownload' to the new install folder and it should take like a minute then be done. I did it when I moved Metro.

    Face, what are your exact steps when reinstalling w10?

    I chose whatever the nuke option was, starting from scratch, removing T something keys (3 letters, I can't remember)

    I signed in with my hotmail, I told MS to F off on some of the feedback stuff. 

    I downloaded bitdefender and installed. Ran a full scan.

    downloaded steam and sts. It worked. Backed up.

    Then I did chrome and my usual stuff.

    Lemons probably already well sucked, but have you updated all your drivers after the clean W10 install?

    I did re windows. Checking with other stuff now.

    Hazzah! Found the fucking culprit.

    Funnily enough, the above is for an epic games fix. That launcher is still shitting itself, but going back to a pre april 18 nvidia driver has made all the games load again. Interesting.

    Looks like Ape Out will be free later on Epic.
  • The Epic Store is doing an absurd deal at the moment

    I have been given £30 by my grandparents for Christmas, and so I wanted to grab some stuff. They are doing a Promotion where you get a £10 voucher, and on valid purchases you get another £10 voucher.

    So I bought Outer Wilds for £9.99 with one voucher and get another. Buy Wattam for £5.99 and get another. Buy Anno 1800 for £17.99. Get Another. HELP!!!!

    Sorry for the late reply face, x-mas season and all.
    I take it that's a factory reset? If DirectX is corrupted in your w10 only a fresh clean w10 install will fix it afaik. A factory reset won't suffice. Grab the official w10 download tool here and use it to dl a fresh up to date copy of w10:

    Make sure to back up your important files first!
    Don't worry about activation keys. Windows will recognize your hardware config and auto activate.

    You can burn the iso to disc or to usb. At boot point to boot from install media (disk or usb). Hit enter and let the installer do its thing.

    Yeah the epic voucher thing is like getting caught in a loop. So before I cave (again) and buy Metro Exodus - does anyone know if it requires the epic laucher to run? Or can I just freely non-steam game it and get all the Controller benefits that entails.

    It's a world of truck drivers.
  • I ran Control through Steam so I could launch it VIA big picture and get my controller settings for it. I would assume Metro would be the same, but wouldn't like to do you wrong.
  • But did you close down Epic launcher when doing that?

    edit: or to be more clear, did it kick off the Epic launcher when launching it through steam if the launcher wasn't running?
  • Can't remember TBH. It worked fine.
  • @hunk. All good. As per following posts: it was an nvidia driver update.

    Epic still playing up is annoying though.
    I'm still great and you still love it.

    Disco players. Will this work with a controller or do I need a mouse? Considering hooking it up to the big TV for some Christmas sleuthing.
