Author Topic: Running Blockland off a flash drive  (Read 1422 times)

In the past it was easy; Just place the main files onto the flash drive and it worked. However, this has not been possible since the introduction of the Blockland launcher. Is there any way to direct the Blockland launcher to run blockland off the Flash drive?

add an arg to the end of it


There surely is, but I don't know if Badspot wants everyone to know about it.

Extract to folder on your flash drive.
Open folder and double click "runme.bat" to run the game.

I love you, Rot.

Here's what I did, which was based on the "Arguments" thing.

Create a shortcut to the Blockland Launcher. Locate this shortcut on your flash drive.

Open up the "properties" dialog box for this shortcut.

See that box that says "target"? You need to add an argument to that.

Best explained by an example: If my flash drive uses Drive Letter E, and BlocklandLauncher.exe is stored under "E:/Blockland/New_Folder" , then I would add the following to the end of the target box:

-profilePath "E:\Blockland\New_Folder"

So replace that with the path that your Blockland Launcher and related files are stored in.

It's a pain to load it up if you swap drive letters, though; you have to create a new shortcut for the new drive letter and it has to recheck all your addons; booting up Blockland can take A LOOOOOONG TIME when switching drive letters and even if it's the same letter it can still take a nice ten minutes.

Hope this helps.

Wasn't even aware that existed.
