I have a 320 GB external for my gaming needs and WeGame / Xfire detects everything fine, though for Xfire it takes a little bit of manual fiddling to get it to find some of the .exe files.

Does it for the lulz.

is your main drive a SSD harddrive. Cause if it is all the people in this thread are saying 80gb is nothing fail. Because a SSD is meant to be like that. its many times faster than a regular harddrive HDD with many gb.

Others are HDD (first 400gb, second 500gb, third 1tb :O - i use the 1tb one only 4 backups-)

I have a 320 GB external for my gaming needs and WeGame / Xfire detects everything fine, though for Xfire it takes a little bit of manual fiddling to get it to find some of the .exe files.

Strange. I've got 2 500 gig drives, primary one's got the OS, programs (including the WG Client) and documents, and I've got all my games and back-ups on the secondary. I'm not really having any issues with the Client. Actually, I have no idea why it would have trouble 'detecting' games on other drives/partitions.

Ahahah
So it is officially: WeGame Client hates me :P and my drives.

A question: Should games be installed on Program Files folder? Cuz in mine back-up drives there are a lot of backups of other PCs, so there are folders like (HP-2006);(Dell etc);(really old pc) then all the folders that were in the hardisks of that computer, so the program files folder doesn't exist in the root of those backup hardisk. Could it be the problem?

EDIT: WeGame Answered to my old question :D

Hi,

Unfortunately this feature is still in the pipeline. We hope to have it implemented soon.
