Alternate Minecraft Installation Location #162

Open zerafox opened 6 years ago

zerafox commented 6 years ago

What happened?

I have Minecraft installed on an alternate Drive of my PC, through the Curse Client even. When attempting to launch the editor I get this:

_Minecraft installation not found, game directory does not exist:

C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming.minecraft

Install Minecraft and try again_

Is there any way to point this to another location to find Minecraft? I"d rather not install Minecraft to my PC twice..

Same for me. I have it set up so my .minecraft folder is in a different location. I don't really want to have to copy all the version files over

Stop reporting bugs for rpw 4.x. It won't be updated anymore!

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I'll attempt to clarify. I have set up Minecraft so that my minecraft directory is at a different location to the default. RPW 4.5.2 scans for files in the default location, and can't detect anything, This could be an issue for people who use launchers such as the Twitch or Technic Launcher, as they also create their own minecraft install directories. Zerafox and I were just wondering if it was possible to change RPW so it will look for the minecraft files in a custom directory.

Am I mentioning this in the wrong place? I'm not sure why you would this was being reported for RPW 1.x otherwise

The thing is I don't have time to work on rpw anymore so feel free to continue with it or do whatever you want. A person said that he'll do a total rewrite but I'm not sure It'll happen. Sorry
