To put it simple and in points.

  1. File > Open BakkesMod Folder, doesn't work
  2. File > Reinstall, it reinstalls and makes a whole new folder in the C: drive's 'App Data > Roaming' section
  3. Settings > Manually Select BakkesMod Folder > D: Drive > Games > Rocket League > RocketLeague.exe
  4. Settings > Manually Select BakkesMod Folder > D: Drive > Games > Bakkesmod I've also tried deleting bakkesmod and reinstalling it in a slightly different area such as D: Drive > Program Files(86x) and such and it didn't work, along with deleting both bakkesmod and rocket league and best part is none of these worked. I've searched reddit and forum after forum and never found anything, I'm hoping someone can help me out. and yes, I've looked at some tutorials, one helped me fix my rocket league file from being lost but didn't fix the issue with bakkesmod wanting to stay in 'C: Drive > Program Files(86x) > bakkesmod > bakkesmod' AND the launcher in 'C: Drive > User > Name > AppData > Roaming

    Thank you for your time in reading this and I hope someone can help me.

Quite late but we pretty much hardcoded the mod to use appdata. Have you tried using symlinks? Im not sure if symlinking the entire mod directory works, but I guess you could symlink the folder where the maps get downloaded to. I'm not sure where that plugin downloads its maps to but if its in bakkesmod/data/maps for example you could try something like mklink /D "PATH_TO_APPDATA/bakkesmod/data/maps" "D:/maps"
