[4.5.0] Can't Set Explicit IWAD Directory

Post by Xtyfe »

I want to bypass steam search but it seems I can't do that. This seems possible with Raze, which uses a similar system I assume, but not GZDoom

This is what the relevant part of my ini looks like. It's just that single line but it just goes to my steam files despite this

Code: Select all

It was, originally... I moved it because it's a NYI thing. The behavior you listed, afaik, is the way it's always been - it couldn't hurt to change it but I have no idea how much of a challenge that would be.
