Install path

sort
RapidDelivery 13 years ago It seems that Zero-K installs to ../My Documents/My Games/Spring/... even if I have spring installed elsewhere. I would prefer to not use my C:/ drive to store games, so I tried to cut/paste the Spring folder from my C: drive to my games drive. After this, I tried to run Zero-K, and it re-downloaded everything to ../My Documents/My Games/Spring/.... Any help would be appreciated. :) +0 / -0
Licho 13 years ago Find spring engine config (spring.cfg or something like that) and edit "DataDir" entry - put there path where you want to store maps/mods. Lobby will listen to that too. +0 / -0
