Hello everyone, this is a tutorial for how to install Ice, if you don't know what that
is, it turns steam into a front end for your emulators and old fashioned games like seen
here and it suppose to be pretty easy only problem is this does not work yet according
to what i found out from them so this is a tutorial on getting rounding getting around
that first thing you want to do download the zip at this website just simply click download
zip you won't need to make a account and just download it into where ever and then this
is what it will look like when it's extracted then you want to copy this and want to paste
it where ever you like i pasted mine in my steam directory (insert grumble) as you notice
i have two different folders here because this is already setup now once you have done
that you need to go back to your web browser you need to download python 2.7.5 or whichever
2.7.X it may be at the time and for me i am downloading x86 64 windows installer for 32
bit and 64 bit systems uh but choose which ever one would be correct for your corresponding
operating system mac Linux or windows and then um use this i would highly recommend
this unless you have something else that will interpret code correctly like this because
notepad does not interpret it very well and it will make it look like a mess so i highly
recommend that you download this for this tutorial once you have downloaded this and
installed it same with this install it, once you have completed that, let's go back to
the folder that you have extracted your ROMs too, you'll want to make sure that steam is
closed and then you will want to run ice as you can see i added star fox to this because
i had my ROMs folder pre-configured here and i had roms in the folder and it was ready
to go it did not find any game called star fox 64 on the console grid so this means that
the image will not be there when i load into steam um well i'll show you how to fix that
in a minute but first things first if you want your ROMs folder to be somewhere other
than your home documents you need to edit the config file this is what it will look
like if you were to open it in notepad kind of garbage you want to open it up in notepad
++ and then it looks like this. In any case this is where my ROMs directory is you'll
notice at the end here i did not put ROMs and the reason for that is because if you
do that it will come up as ROMs ROMs um other than that doesn't really matter in any case
once you have it like this no, once you have it like that you'd run this and it will put
the ROMs folder in here or where ever you told it to go. Then once you have this folder
it may or may or may not have put these in here if it didn't just put in here just like
i have cause they have to be named properly and then you add a rom in here for example
then simply run ice again and it should work now how are we going to fix that image issue
well there is a couple of ways we can do this in your roms folder go down to for example
star fox was the one with the problem you'll notice all of these other ones don't have
this U here you take that out sometimes it will trip the image grid and come back to
ice make sure steam is still closed and run it and then downloading Grid images as you
can see now if it still doesn't come after you've done all that you'll notice i have
a folder here called steam images this is because i went around the web found the images
i wanted for the games and downloaded them and then i have placed them in steam manually
which is kind of annoyance but is still in .1 so i am not too worried about it in any
case once you have all done that, all you have to do is go to steam, and then go to
this mode and then you will put it in installed for example it will come up with all of these
games paper Mario ninja gaidan, ninja gaidan quake 2 star wars rogue squadron paper Mario
super smash bros, all that stuff so you'll have all these things installed it will be
quite wonderful they all work just to prove it to you i'll show you guys real quick uh
lets see lets find a example game what's a game i like to play well i do like this game
so there we go and then it works it will launch the thing automatically if you want to know
where it's putting the emulators it's in right here it's under your app data local scott
rice and then emulators will be located in there and that's where those are at now i
have mine setup for a controller currently you'll see it's also integrated with steam
uh you can set up multiple controllers or whichever you would like to do or you can
set up with a keyboard your controller is not plugged in and you can make a keyboard
profile for it or whatever um but just for this i will show you that it does work pretty
well and then press something over here on the oh start there we go or did i what did
i do wrong wait one second oh controller is not plugged in there we go so you press start
or something and it should continue and there we go so as you can see it does in fact work
pretty well do alt enter and puts it in full screen or you can do whatever so in any case
that's all workin um and anyways i hope you guys all enjoyed the video uh if you have
any issues please post it in the comments i will try and do my best to help you guys
fix it sorry i went so fast and if anyone having any issues with that i am really sorry
just pause video for certain parts and continue on as you would um anyways i hope you guys
all have a great day and thank you for watching please subscribe.
