You can easily save your Friends list. It's a text (wordpad, not notepad) editable file:
program files\steam\config\USERDATA_#####.VDF where the #### is your steamid. If you want to save or move that file (or delete it) then go for it. I occasionally have to edit this file directly to delete friends that have been deleted (they get flagged not removed) or to set flags. If you want the friends in that list to be on another account, you can't just rename the file name, you need to cut and paste just the friends portion into the USERDATA file that already exists for the other account, the header and footer are unique to each account. Be careful not to mess up the format though, the code that processes this file is not real robust and can get confused. qUiCkSiLvEr >> From: MIKE AKEY >> Subject: Re: [hlcoders] HL1 / HL 2 / Steam suggestion. >> Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2003 05:19:24 -0800 >> I think that's a great idea..doubt valve will implement such a thing in the near >> future, although, i wish they would hold my friends list...or allow me to save it so i >> can use it on a different user account on a different computer. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
