Particals Images and Video does not accept other folder

Post by rapanuy »

Hi.
I´m using Win XP SP3 and the newest g-force.
I would like to direct g-force to another wallpaper folder.
In the toolbar I go to Use external folder... -> click my other folder, but g-foce stays to the original spritesfolder.

Where is the bug? Firewall is deactivated.

I knew you´d go for the simple one first ;)

Will that allways be the way: when the door won´t open: just don´t use your condo no more :-)


The point: I´d like to keep my sprites folder (with the dirty stuff) for myself (*höhö*), and use a second (clean folder) for the grandparents visit ;-)))

I know mike, I was being a bit of a smart ass the bruins were down 3 to 1 and I took it out on you sorry.


I hope you read the sticky concerning Apples bonjour sevice

so what player are you using?


I you have Itunes installed read the sticky


I just added a new folder and it did work for me


also you could try this uninstall GF completely delete both soundspectrum folders one is in program files the other in the application data folder of your documents.


reinstall GF this will often resolve wierd issues like this one

Oki. I use iTunes (what else ;)

Bonjour is green in firewall, and works, for example with iTunes remote (apple app store) or itap (pc remote, apple app store).

I de- and reinstalled g-force (new version), I click on external folder..., it shows the path to the other directory, but:

the pictures in the list change to: the old directory pictures.

Pictures so stay the same as before.

I know what bonjour does,


did you delete both soundspectrum folders as I suggested in the bonjour thread?


sometimes GF will keep prior settings if the folder with the prefs files isnt deleted during the install as GF tries to save your settings from last time around

No, I assumed by deinstalling g-force all is gone, so I didn´t double check.
