Anyone figure out a way to do this? It looks pretty possible, it's just I am not the brightest when it comes to stuff like this. What I mean is having an icon for WoW that would run DX9 and run on high settings, aka for botting, and having an icon that would run it on DX11 with full ultra settings? This would be pretty nice as then I could run WoW with full settings for when I am actually playing, and open my second account being able to bot. So is this possible and has someone done this? Or is this just impossible?
Personally, I have 2 different WoW installations. One for botting (low settings) and one for playing myself (ultra settings) This way, I only have the few important addons enabled when botting aswell - as some addons can fuck up the bot in some places.
So do you think having two separate installations is the only way? BTW did you just copy and paste all the wow files into a separate folder or did you actually install again?
Actually he clearly answers it. Install 1: C drive, botting drive, settings are saved to lowest and no addons in interface folder. Install 2: G drive, main account, settings are saved to highest with my addons in interface folder That is how I run WoW.
So having two wows sounds like the only option, but I see that yours uses two drives, I play on a high-end laptop, so I don't have the privilege of having the ability to have more than one disk drive in my computer. Anyone think putting the game on a flash drive would work?
You could always replace the autoexec.cfg (or whatever wow's version of it is) then launch WoW, then change it back?
Alright thanks that seems like the best solution! BTW one last question, so is it best to just copy and paste my wow and just delete my interface and change settings when I launch wow or actually go through the installation process?
I copy and pasted it all over, same with my SWTOR installation, I copy and pasted to the flash drive.
A tip is to make a junction, requires about 100mb of space instead of 2 installations @ 15gb+ This will enable you to have 2 installations and separate settings. Get >> Junction << Lets say you have your wow folder on your C: drive (C:\wow) Create a new folder on the C:\ drive, lets call it wow2 copy junction.exe to C:\ Open a cmd prompt, cd to C:\ in the cmd prompt type "junction -s C:\wow2\Data C:\wow\Data" without quotes and a space between the paths you will now have a link to the data folder. Copy all the files in this list to the new folder.
