CamelCase SteamApps #29

Closed sirmaxim closed 3 years ago

sirmaxim commented 6 years ago

This is not how steam names the directory as they use all lowercase. Does it matter? On network drives it can. I have a drive mounted with NFS where I wanted to put my library. Steam calls it steamapps and game pipe simply can't find it, so it creates SteamApps which works because the NFS mount OS is FreeBSD. So now both exist and neither game pipe nor steam like it, creating an issue.

As a work-around you could create a symbolic link between the two directories.

I'll have to look into this a little. I can see where I've hand-typed the camel case version, so it probably should be changed, however I'll want to make sure it's not ever the other way around.

Sorry for the long delay on this fix, but it is now fixed with 1.0.3.
