Map Installer Issues

Post by Dr Frag » Fri Mar 16, 2007 7:27 pm

Hey guys, I decided to make a thread for this away from the map specific stuff.

As I mentioned previously I installed SMR to C:\Game\Railroads! and the game had no problem installing to that folder. Consequently the user folder became C:\Documents and Settings\drfrag\My Documents\My Games\Railroads! which is what you'd expect. That is the 'install' folder and can be chosen by the user duriing install but everything under it is controlled by the game and will be consistant across all installations. Like everyone else I have CustomAssets, Saves, UserMaps, etc. in there.

So the installer should take the folder the user points it to and assume that to be the folder above the CustomAssets folder and all will be good.

And if Mike(atani) can read it from the Registry so much the better.

Excellent job with the installer by the way. I've been really impressed at being able to modify the XMLs and stuff. Big thanx for all your hard work.
