Help: Alternative Mod Installing

[GhostNull]

Hey

How do you play mods that ask you to put stuff in the appdata folder without putting stuff in the appdata folder. like in BigGamer95's invasion you don't have to do anything to the appdata folder to play, All you need to do is extract a folder, even though it uses Amine's TremBot which usually requires you to install stuff into the appdata folder (this is hard to explain ). How can i do it (without patching)? How can i make something like the BigGamer's folder extracty thingy?

Thnx
P.S. i want to do this with Ambush mod (the qvms for ambush, pbot, Lakitu7's Tremulous 1.1 Game.qvm and the paths for pbot)

tremulous +set fs_homepath ./local

so use this parameter and put stuff where?

Trem (anything newer then default 1.1.0) uses 2 folders, fs_basepath which is in program files, and fs_homepath which is user specific and by default in appdata. To make trem use a different folder you can use

Code: [Select]

+set fs_homepath "C:\Documents and Settings/username/My Documents/Tremulous" (on Windows, quotes are needed if there is a space in the path) , and then put any required files in there instead. This folder can be anywhere. If you do change it, make sure you move/copy all files from current home directory there too or you will lose settings & binds.

Either way, you will still have to put files somewhere.
