Add/Restore support for '.' in bash.ini #676

Closed AndalayBay closed 3 months ago

AndalayBay commented 4 months ago

Can support for "." under sOblivionMods be restored or another option made available?

I have one installation of WB with multiple instances of Oblivion and one instance of Morrowind. I want to have the Bash Installers folder under the game folder so I can switch instances. I'm using the -o parameter to specify the game, but how do I configure the bash.ini to tell it to put Bash Installers under each game instance? If I use ".", it uses the default. It used to mean the current directory, which is what I want. Using an absolute path defeats the purpose of having one Bash installation - I'd have to edit the ini file every time. If I use "Bash Installers", it creates a second Bash Installers folder under Bash Installers.

Also, is there a way to backup your current installation order, including the markers? I can make copies of the .dat files, but I'm not sure which ones to backup and then replace when I mess things up.

Thanks. I did try asking on Discord.

A bit more info on the trusted binaries: it's deleting the list when WB is closed, no matter how it was populated. I installed some packages with DLL's and it added them to the trusted list, but the list was blank again when I re-opened WB. This is the same 313 nightly that I grabbed previously (313.202402091838). And yes, having an About dialogue where I can copy the version number would be super helpful! :)

Where do you save the trusted binaries list?

Yes, that's odd. I just saved the list to the path it selected. Later I couldn't find it because it wasn't in any of the locations I expected - it put it in Data\Bash Patches. When I import the list, it's right there so I figured that's where it wants to put it.

I can confirm that the anneal fix is working. I just renamed a bunch of folders and it correctly updated and installed everything. Thank you!

Are you using the installer? It was incorrectly including bash.ini from the build machine and installing that. 313.202402211734 should fix it.

AndalayBay commented 3 months ago

Yep, that was it. Grabbed latest and it seems to be fine. Didn't touch the ini.

Check off another one.
