Renaming vault.ini

Post by YamiKaitou » Sun Jul 09, 2006 7:57 pm

I have 2 Warcraft3 mods installed on my server and I wish to have both of them saving to the vault. They are war3ft and war3x. I would like to change the filename of war3ft's vault to something else so that I can still allow both mods to save properly. Which files would I edit and what would I edit. And, if this is possible to do without editing the source code, please tell me. I don't want to attempt it before I know the results.

you can't... you would have to change the amxx vault module...

Just wait for the next war3ft which uses nvault, not vault

Use 2 amxx folders and rename them when you want to change between war3ft and war3x.
Then make a mapchange and everything should go very easily.

that would require me to shut down the server and change it. Or is there a way I can do it from within the game?

thought the plugins.ini of metamod is reread every map change,
i'll check that

swapping metamodplugins on mapchange works but sometimes some plugins stay in memory
