Title: Downloading Files ? Question
Post by: Nihongo^ on Sep 07, 2017, 10:46 AM
Hello guys i have a question last night i install new windows and then after doing all setting ( installing vcmp and GTA VC Directory )

i start vcmp and join VK's server its start download files which was 87. i was thinking about these files where he located ?. After

a research i found all files its located at C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\VCMP\04beta\store\<IP>

ok i found all server files

Since its located at C: Drive and after installing new windows we format c drive and all Files including these vcmp files delete ok ?

so what if i COPY ALL FILES and save them to drive D after installing new windows i paste them back to

C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\VCMP\04beta\store\<IP>

what you think ? still i have to wait for download files ?

No, you don't need wait for download files again.

Its even better to create a symlink if you reinstall your OS every while.

Do symlinks even exist in Windows?

Yes, its called "shortcuts" or .Ink files.

They don't work as actual symlinks and VCMP will not recognize them.

"MKLINK /D C:\test E:\test" should work fine with any software, I've used it for RAM disk.

.lnk is not symlink.
