Character Files
|
Ok... i just ran back into a problem with the files again...
My current directory structure for zmud is the standard C:\zmud
in \zmud, i have my character folders, and then of course, i made a special folder called "inherited"
so we have
c:\zmud\inherited
and c:\zmud\character
now in the files page, if i do not specify the FULL pathname of the .MUD file for inherited files, ie: C:\zmud\inherited\sample.mud
it tries to load it from c:\zmud\CHARACTER\inherited\sample.mud
anyone know why it doesnt do this all the time?
7.05 i managed to get it all working right without full paths
7.13 was buggy with the files, then doing a totally clean install and reboot and it worked properly...
then upgraded to .13a and back to the files being silly (pathwise). just curious if there is something im missing |

On the Files tab of the Character Properties window (the window that appears when you click the Edit button instead of Connect or Offline), there are a series of buttons near the top of the tab that tell ZMud where/when to look for a file. I never quite understood which button did what, but it might be something to play with.
Personally, I'd just rather use full path names because then it's a clear bug in ZMud if you end up with the wrong file. Easy bug = easy fix = more updates. |
