| Hey Guys,
Occasionally, I find a player that improperly uninstalled previous MUSHclient and then they get a messed path because the old database is still there when they install our MUSHclient version.
Is there a fast a clean way I can tell people to fix that if they run into that situation?
Thanks! | | Top |

| I'm not sure what paths you are referring to, but they may well be in the SQLite3 database: mushclient_prefs.sqlite
This sort of stuff is in it:
sqlite3> select * from prefs;
...
DefaultLogFileDirectory|C:\Program Files (x86)\MUSHclient\logs\
DefaultMacrosFile|
DefaultNameGenerationFile|names.txt
DefaultOutputFont |FixedSys
DefaultTimersFile |
DefaultTriggersFile|
DefaultWorldFileDirectory|C:\Program Files (x86)\MUSHclient\worlds\
NotepadQuoteString|>
PluginList|
PluginsDirectory|C:\Program Files (x86)\MUSHclient\worlds\plugins\
StateFilesDirectory|.\worlds\plugins\state\
...
You can remove or rename that file (mushclient_prefs.sqlite) and everything should go back to the defaults.
(Do that while MUSHclient is not running). |

I don't understand what this means. What do you mean by "improperly uninstalled" and why would that have anything to do with "a messed up path"? |

| Sorry guys I should've said msp path.
I think people sometimes just delete their old mushclient instead of uninstall or they don't and install our download at a different location and database used for msp path is their old one. | | Top |

| The path used by the msp.xml plugin can be updated using the set_msp_path command.
The example given inside the plugin is:
set_msp_path d:\muds\mushclient\msp
