Elemental via Impulse

from Elemental Forums

Hi there,

I have two computers at home. A really souped up one where I play most of my games (without an Internet connection) and an average one, where I surf the Internet.

My question is this: I'm planning on buying Elemental via Impulse. If I do so, will I be able to transfer the game to  my other pc that doesn't have an Internet connection (via USB pen or DVD, for instance)? This is what I usually do when I buy games from GOG - they send you a nice executable that you're free to copy to other machines that you own.

If not, I figure that I have to fix an Internet connection for my gaming pc, but I'd really prefer to keep it as it is now.

I apologise if this has been asked before or if it's the wrong place to ask.

Thanks.

I believe you can archive the download using Impulse on your first PC (right click on the game in Impulse rather than installing) and then install Impulse on the second machine and use that archive with it.  The download will require a one time activation which can either be done online, or the PC will generate a small file which you then e-mail to suport and they will send back a suitable activation file.

Or as the person just above me just said, you can use Impulse Anywhere.  You will still need to do the activation bit, but it removes the need to do the archive bit first.
