You will need to use Symbolic Links to redirect the folders but I don't have the Steam version so I don't know how its folders are set up. I have seen Steam users mention Symbolic Links before for doing this, so that's definitely the way to go. IIRC it uses the mklink command and batch files but I haven't used mklink through DOS so I don't know what the exact syntax is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was years ago (probably 4 years to be precise)... I can't remember what the links were. I use symbolic links myself but I have the retail version and I wrote my own custom launcher, so what I know won't work with the Steam version. Maybe try asking on the 5Mods forums as I know there are a lot of Steam users on there... it is also more active than these forums. I think one of the users who uses them is a moderator on there, meimeiriver is a Steam user and as far as I remember, was the one using mklink.
