funionfs on Fedora 21 with Steam games under Codeweavers Crossover
I have multiple steam accounts, each has full rights to the Borderlands games. The problem with this setup is that each steam account has a full, multi-gigabyte common directory. Using a single directory doesn't work as each Steam account makes some minor modifications to the downloaded files -- I'm assuming but don't know -- that this is related to copy protection. In any case, I am exploring using funionfs to allow I big directory and several small directories for the installed games. I name my steam bottles Steam021, Steam022, etc. Steam021 has the unadulterated full game installation. Under Steam022, I moved common to common.before. Then I created common and commonrw. Finally I mounted the funionfs directory under Steam022 like so sudo funionfs -o uid=1000 -o gid=1000 -o allow_other -o dirs=\ "/home/gamer/.cxoffice/Steam021/drive_c/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common"=RO:\ "/home/gamer/.cxoffice/Steam022/drive_c/Program\ Files/Steam/steamapps...
