Run Macros from alt directory?

Post by curiosity » Tue Aug 31, 2004 5:08 am

Okay I did a quick search for this but didn't see anything that covered this. Basically I'm wondering if there's a way to run macros in a different directory then just the plain ol Macros folder. Maybe there could be an option in a preferences file or something that lists the macro/inf/etc directories and you could change them at will?

My purpose for this is to have multiple compilations for MQ2 for all my computers, but have 1 generic place for all my macros.

I guess this could be solved also if there was a way to compile MQ2 to run on more then 1 machine. Then I could compile it to run on all my machines at my house, then just have 1 folder for it anyways.

If you can solve either of these issues, I'd love to hear it. Thanks

you can compile it for multiple machines on one machine. Read the MQAuth info in the readme.

Looking in the ini file

Code: Select all

[MacroQuest]
MacroPath=.\Macros
try just editing it.
