-is it legal to copy the installed folder to my new computer? because I just saved a copy on my portable harddisk as a backup.

-and also is it possible to make it run without the installer? I mean just by using the copied folder?

Thanks

Yes, this is always legal (even without the rights the GPL grants you).

If you're using a version as distributed by us then the answer is yes, definitly.

Savegames, etc, are not inside the Warzone folder. Find them in the My Documents folder instead.

I copied all the folders and put them with my WZ but when I run the copied game an error shows: The procedure entry point alcGetSting could not be located in the dynamic link library OpenAL32.dll.

Guys, I really need your help. I know this is evil but I've been trying to run the game at work where Im not allowed to install. so I was thinking of copying an already installed game instead... "It's more fun playing inside the office where it's not allowed" EVIL ;)

Check if the file openAL32.dll you copied from other installation is corrupted,the file version should be '6.14.357.13' size 84.0 KB (86,016 bytes)
