Author Topic: Is it possible to have a steam game installed to two different locations?  (Read 457 times)

Me and my brother both like to play the same games and steam family sharing allows this. However I ran into one problem. We can't play games like Blockland or other games stored in the common folder in the steamapps folder because we will both have the same BLID and name and everything. Is there a way to have two folders of a game that we can both access from different steam accounts? Like instead of being put into the "common" folder it's put into each of our accounts' folders?

And if it is then how is it done?

I think it is possible.

I was just using blockland as an example. I would never let you maniacs play BL with my little brother. You'd turn him into an starfish.

I'm p sure you can allow / disallow certain games.
