Moving the Data Directory

WESeib

I found this: https://forum.profantasy.com/discussion/8724/move-the-data-directory

I moved the data directory to E:\Profantasy\CC3Plus

I opened Notepad as administrator

I edited the file: C:\Program Files (x86)\ProFantasy\CC3Plus\@.ini and changed the reference to the new data directory.

I then saved that file.

I tried it both with and without a trailing "\"

It is still not working, when I open CC3+ all of the images are black (black boxes) across everything.

Is there something else I need to do?

As an aside, I tried intentionally making the reference in @.ini to be incorrect.

I got warning messages about being able to open .opt files.

When I have the correct directory (the new data directory) I don't get those errors. It just doesn't display any of the graphics at all. Do I need to refresh them somehow?

Nevermind, it appears that I just needed to click some things :) It appears to be working correctly.

Apologies for the panicked post.

Have you tried simply opening a new map? The map loaded by default when starting CC3+ is the last map you had open, but since this has been moved, CC3+ will just display a black screen. Try to re-open the map, but from the new location.

This was exactly the problem. Apologies. :)

I saw black squares and freaked out ;)
