Zugg Software :: View topic - [328B-330B] CMUD fails to create/save/look for session package in session folder

Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 6:48 am

Starting with version 3.28, CMUD has been creating, loading, and saving the session package from the game (top) folder rather than from the session folder. In fact, other files one would normally expect to be in the session folder are now also found in the top folder. such as map files which are created by default, as well as their associated .zfg files. The only files one finds in the session folder at the moment are the .tbz and the .xly file. If one moves any of the session files back to the session folder, they "disappear" from view.

Select the Edit Session action and go to your Files/Packages tab and look at the path for your primary package file. That is the directory CMUD will use for your session. There have been no changes to this in a long time and it's working fine in all of my sessions here, so somehow that directory must have gotten changed for your session somehow.

You are correct, the path shown is to the top folder. Is there a way to "correct" this other than re-creating the package? There doesn't seem to be a way to move the file(s).

Change it in the File/Packages tab, then manually move the files.

Or Move the files first, then in the File/Packages tab use the Browse button to locate the package file and load it. That will reset the path.

Oddly enough, as soon as I moved the files to the session folder, CMUD recognized their location. I didn't have to do anything else. So I am assuming that it looks there first and if it doesn't find them it goes to the Packages folder and then the top folder. I have no explanation as to how the client lost its way. I will let you know if it happens again next release.
