8 years ago actually im referring to project mapViewer, in the file FFXILandscapeMesh.cpp.
but it does apply to project datLoader, however u need to mask the LocateFFXIDataFolder(), in file MainDatLoader.cpp
I hardcode the ffixdir[] so that it does not use registry to find the ffxi install folder.
back to yr problem, if u insist on using the registry, i believe "SOFTWARE\PlayOnline\InstallFolder" -- is JP client "SOFTWARE\PlayOnlineUS\InstallFolder" -- is NA client "SOFTWARE\PlayOnlineEU\InstallFolder" -- is EU client
On download TDWAnalysis.cpp Line 16 reads:
char ffxidir[512];rather than your E: path I read that needed changing.Anyhow, changed this to:
char ffxidir[512]="C:\Program Files (x86)\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI";(note - excluded '\' after 'FINAL FANTASY XI' in instructions as this led to a compile error)Also removed 'US' from Line 29 to match my registry (EU English install may be the reason this is different):
"SOFTWARE\\PlayOnline\\InstallFolder"(the 0001 value in the registry here is identical to what was defined above on Line 16)Compiled with Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2015 with no errors. On running the executable, a msgbox with the Line 38 message appears: "1.ﾃｻﾓﾐﾕﾒｵｽFF11ｰｲﾗｰｵﾄﾗ｢ｲ盂榘・ﾇ・ﾚFINAL FANTASY XIﾎﾄｼｼﾐﾏﾂﾖｴﾐﾐｴﾋｳﾌﾐ・" Which is stating that ffxidir's length == 0, so I'm at a loss. Any ideas?
also, I changed Line 16 back to just
char ffxidir[512];but also received the msgbox w/JP text.
