[OUTDATED] Hedgewars Portable 0.9.13 Development Test 8

Could you point me to a PortableApp that does it that way? I tried to do this with FreeCiv, before I found a way to redirect, but I couldn't get it to work correctly.

That was the first thing I tried. That is what I was able to do for FreeCiv to change the save location, and I simple modified that launcher for Hedgewars. Unfortunately, it didn't work. If you have a chance, give it a try, maybe I did something wrong.

Probably best to leave it how it then for now and just include a note in the original post stating that this is a known bug. Hopefully by the time this gets to pre-release or the Hedge Wars gets to 1.0 there has been a fix figured out.

I downloaded the file linked to, and it did have a different MD5. I have no idea why. I uploaded the file again and updated the link. Let me know if there are any other problems.

Thanks,

Andy

Game On

I left some debug code in there. It should be out now.

Both screens has resolutions of 1024x768 (the same as is set in Hedgewars).

Both computers is XP with SP2 (not SP3).

On both computers I have admin rights.

My Hedgewars setup is:

• Frontend Fullscreen: T/F //I've tried having it on (T) and off (F).
• Frontend Effects: T
• Enable Frontend Sounds: T
• Enable Frontend Music: T
• Resolution: 1024x768
• Fullscreen: T/F
• Reduced Quality: T/F
• Enable Sound: T
• Enable Music: T
• FPS Limit: 125
• Enable FPS: T

I may get a hardware spec of my home later (if it's necessary).
The university computer's spec is:
