Problems changing path to datafiles

Post by Drex »

I found a demo of Mutants on a floppy, set it up on my test server, got an error and went into CNF4 and changed the path from BBSV6 to WGSERV and fired it up and tried out the game... put it on my server and am unable to make that change stick, it keeps going back to BBSV6 altho it says 1 file changed when saving..any ideas? The file ID says MBBS/wg1/wg2, off hand I think it is version 3.15 or 3.16.

Running WG2.0 (DOS)

Unfortunately there are times when developers missed the paths so it might be hardcoded somewhere... :(

Yeah, thats the strange part it did accept the change on the test server but not the live one, about the only thing different I did was add the docs on the live server...will remove to see if that makes any differance.

No luck, but found one differance, on the test server my path is \wgserv2 and it accepted that..very strange
