Separate paints install path?

[Johnny Dioxin]

Is it possible to use a location for repaints other than the standard install folder or Saved Games one?

 

My repaints are getting very large in size - approaching 15GB just for my favourites and well over that for everything I have, and my SSD space is valuable.

 

If not, I'll try using a junction link (or symlink or whatever name they go by these days)

You can use symlinks:

I use symlinks as well, but you can also point to any path in your autoexec.cfg with the following line (path as example):

table.insert(options.graphics.VFSTexturePaths, "e:/DCS_Textures/Bf109")

Note the forward slashes; they're important.

 

If you use the same autoexec.cfg, you can also use the same texture path for all of your DCS installs.

That'll do nicely :)
