What is in installscript.vdf

[niemand]

I don't own this game now, but I wanted to ask if someone could tell me what is in installscript.vdf.

And if there are more installscript.vdf files in different folders please write what they include too.

Thank you.

That's a very suspicious question

That was very helpful. Thanks...

1. Where do you have that file from?
2. What makes you think it is associated with the game if you do not even own it?

1) Some Steam games have installscript.vdf in main folder of the game.
2) In the file is often script for installing some other software like DirectX, MS Visual C++ etc. But sometimes is there some script for installing other software. Once I found on Steam a game which installed some weird anticheat and I just want to know, what will be installed on my PC if I buy this game.

But it is possible that there is no installscript.vdf in the main directory.

I'm just careful, but if I don't own the game, I can't look what is in the script :)

As far as I can tell, the only thing TTS installs is the C++ redistributable
But that's for windows, not idea about other platforms.

If you are actually worried, you can always install the game and check its install directory for the script before you launch it for the first time.

Those install scripts are only ran once you launch the game the first time, not when you install the game.
If you delete them before launching the game, they won't install anything.
