(SOLVED) Mortal Kombat X Install 1-29, are those needed? and what are they?

[DjBasA]

EDIT: those dlc's arent needed at all, i ran MKXL for 1 hour (playing online for 15 minutes and 45 minutes of the story mode) and my game never crashes or asked for files, i have textures on high, shadows on low (don't find them importent for MK) and the rest is on off (simple because i don't like the effects).

MKX was the first game to use Steam's new "Streaming install" basically you download a part of the game, then you download the rest while playing with that small portion you already have.

[DjBasA]

the download without those selected is 36 gb, does the game really need more then that?

Total Install size: 44324 MB

[DjBasA]

with or without those ''dlc's'' ?
thats what i wanna know, and if the game really uses the files downloaded by them.

[Simon]

Obviously with.
Of course the game uses them.

[DjBasA]

oke, thanks for the help, i readed something about not needing them anymore when the xl update released, so i got a bit confused.

Yes, the Install 1-29 DLCs were from MKX. Now with the release of XL, the devs merged all those install DLCs into a new, single depot, wich is from we get the updated game. Now we don't need to download those Installs 1-29 DLCs because if you have them selected to install, Steam will ask for 85 gigas of space, because it would download all the files from the new depot plus the files from the old Installs 1-29. So if anyone's Steam is asking for 85 gigas of space or gives a disk write error, just uncheck Installs 1-29 from the DLC list in Properties, that Steam will only downlaod the files from the new depot.

Actually that was changed last year's April. On the 21st, anyone who purchase the game from that date onwards would use a standard Steam download and installation. I'm not sure if people who bought it before would still need to use them, but if not, then they could simply pull those files off the servers.

I have the old system and I also uninstalled those and still working fine.

I am downloading the game now without the install packs,with those install packs the game was asking 85 gb to install.This post helped me to downloading the game.Tomorrow I will post here if it works to me.

[NeonDrare]

When the game finished downloading I tried open the game,the logo appeared but the game didn't open.So I started to mark the install packs 1-29 it installed but it was 0 kb each one, only 1 or 2 taked more than 2 seconds to install.I opened the game,When the logo MK XL appeared i pressed Alt+ Enter to go fullscreen becouse I readed in other post that game doesn't open on windown mode.So It worked after all.I saw that they removed the install packs from dlc today.

in my case, these 29 install DLC vanish today only legit dlc left
