manually setting addon folder?
Is there any way to set up addon folder manually? In config or something?
My problem is that I have a name that contains non-latin character. I can install Minion on a custom location and it opens but I cannot load addon folder. The problem is that the addon folder is on a path that contains my name (default documents folder). I can change user name easily but this does not change user folder name. I do not want to mess up in registry or do other tricks to change user folder name just for this application alone. Could you please explain me from where the non-latin characters in name requirement come from? Really, this is basics. I have used alot of custom/user made programs. Nexus mod manager and other Skryim/Fallout mod related programs work perfectly. |

I do not know if there is a manual config possible, but the following workaround should help:
Create a folder where you want to install your addons in. Let's say "C:/AddOns" and select that folder in Minion. Now Minion should be able to install addons inside "C:/AddOns", because that path does not have any special characters. Then go to "Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live" and delete the AddOns folder, if it exists in there. At the top of the current window, click on the address bar and type cmd and press enter. A black terminal will open. It should list the current path, i.e. ...Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live. Type mklink /J "AddOns" "C:/AddOns" and press enter. This will create an "AddOns" folder in the current location, which is actually just a link to the previously created "C:/AddOns" folder. Because of this link, when ESO tries to access "Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/AddOns" it will actually load all addons from "C:/AddOns". |
