Modtools on another drive? [Solved]

Post by elfie »

Hey guys, I just got another drive and I'm planning on transfering my BF2_Modtools folder from C: to E: Will this effect the munge paths or anything like that? Thanks in advance.

But be safe and install it on the E drive. Don't just copy the entire folder over.

Wait a sec... Read this from the readme.
From Readme
This should be installed on the root of your C: drive, otherwise Mod Tools will not work.
... I wouldn't do that if I were you. :?

The Readme is wrong. My mod tools are installed on an external hard drive (G:) and it works completely fine.

If there is a space in the folder path where the mod tools are installed it has problems. But other then that, you should be able to put it where ever.

It Will Be Fine
