Hi Folks,
I've made quite a bit of progress towards a working Game Maker 8.1 PortableApp, however, have one issue:
Game Maker appears to store the license under %APPDIR%/Local/GameMaker8.1. Ideally, I'd like for this to be stored on the USB Key but it is ok for PortableApps to push the directory and key temporarily and remove them.
I've tried several methods, but expert advice would be helpful.
Thanks!
Do you mean %LOCALAPPDATA%? If so, that's easy to deal with:
in your launcher, use a [DirectoriesMove] section with the following:
GameMaker8.1=%LOCALAPPDATA%\GameMaker8.1
[EDIT] See here for details.
Thanks Gord ... this variable works perfectly; problem solved!
