Can i request a "puppy" version of Nexuiz? You know, like really low res textures, low poly models and all that stuff for smallest size and better performance. I want to take Nexuiz to our school, but there is a limit of what you can have on your private hard disk. :/

Hope it isn't too much, thank you

Talk about a bad idea

Playing games in school is a great way to get in trouble

That aside, there is no such version.

There is no "light" version! Stop searching for it!

True.

Though, why don't you just put it on a USB? They just need to open the folder then open the game and take it out, the game still works... Then you can share it around like that..

Exactly

There was a MiniNex released previously by a former member of this forum. It's not been updated since about Nexuiz 2.0.

It is easily possible to reduce the size of Nexuiz by deleting, resizing, recompressing files. Have a search for MiniNex on the forum and it'll show you some ideas.

I do not see this as being a bad idea at all. If anything there is a greater need for a smaller packaged Nexuiz now than ever. A repackaged Nexuiz would work better on netbooks. This however is not really something that should be done officially by Alientrap I think. If the communities around the netbooks (ie. eeeuser) want to have package repositories set up for tuned packages, a smaller version of Nexuiz would be so much better, we can tell them how to do this.

I may look into doing this... I might try to make a protable nexuiz

I think I'll aim for, say 50(as if!) - 150mb (probably more likely).

i made a quick and dirty 50 MB version. Be aware though, that i wasn't exactly using a scalpel. A velociraptor would be a more fitting metaphore. Now i'm trying to upload it somewhere. Know any good place? (FTPLoad is down right now)
