Feature request: optional paths during setup #22

Closed parduz closed 6 months ago

parduz commented 7 months ago

I've just installed Geonkick and it asked nothing, just installed the VST3 in the usual folder and the presets inside the user path.

I have a dedicated disk for all my music stuffs (S:) and everything is installed there. I also have 2 OSs on my PC, one "for everyday use" and one super clean and optimized for music production. I have my DAW in both OSs, and both are configure to look in S: for the plugins, the presets etc.

I reckon that my use case is not the most common, but also it is not something really weird.

Some plugins won't allow this, so i use symlinks in the various "appdata" folders to make those VST happy while still having all the data in the S: disk. I wonder if geonkick could be smarter than that and allow to have a custom setup picking paths both for the plugins and for the presets.

Yes, in the next releases the installer for Windows will gradually improve, adding staff like path selection, plugin format and other features.
