Vista/6.3 batch files

fireems14 · 06-05-2010, 02:19 PM

I have never set up batch files before. I watched the tutorial video today and tried setting them up with no success. I realize that video was intended for XP and an earlier version of FOF. Is there any material out there regarding batch files for 6.3 (if there are changes) and Vista?

found it.

Still confused. I found the thread where Ben addressed changing the batch files for 6.3 in vista but being computer challenged I need some kindergarten type instructions on how to set the batch files up initially. Anything like that out there?

Batch files are up and working but none of the pictures will load.

copy "C:\Users\James\AppData\Roaming\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2007\universe\BLHF\*.bmp" "C:\Program Files\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2007\pictures\"

This is what I have in the .bat file with the pictures in BLHF folder. Any ideas?

That appears to be correct James. I don't know why it wouldn't be transferring the pics.

- Try capitalizing the "P" in Pictures. That is the only thing that looks different to me.

Tried the capitol P. No luck. After I click on the batch file short cut on my desk top a command(?) window pops up and scrolls through all of these pictures with an access denied after each one. then it gets to the game command and opens the game just fine.
