Trying to have portable configuration, relative paths relative to C:\Public\... ?
Hi,
I've WinUAE 2.3.2 and W7 Pro 64bit. I'm trying to make a "portable" configuration for an USB stick. I figured already that creating an empty winuae.ini in the same dir the winuae.exe is uses that instead of the registry. However, when I go to "Paths" and configure "use relative paths" they are always relative to C:\Users\Public\Documents\Amiga Files\WinUAE ; I'd rather expect them to be relative to the winuae.exe . That makes it hard to create a portable configuration. Or am I missing something? Thanks for the clarification! |

Try "winuae -portable" command line parameter (delete winuae.ini first)
Paths panel should show all paths in ".\whatever_the_path" format. |

Thanks, that seems to work!
I see that it changes PathMode from WinUAE_2 to WinUAE ; is this the flag to indicate that this is a "portable" configuration? So I don't need to care about always providing -portable to winuae.exe ? I tried to find documentation about this but failed, I tried winuae.net and the downloaded ZIP; thanks |

Empty winuae.ini and -portable should do exact same thing. Obviously it does not, I am not sure why..
But I am 100% sure I don't any any documentation |
