Dink FAN
hi there folks,
i just installed dink on my pc the OS is vista...
the problem im having is i cant start playing dink or d-mods over the DFArc v.3.2.1
but when i start over the freedink.exe the maingame can be played
without problems (until now...)
...back to DFArc v.3.2.1!!
of course i want to play other mods but without DFArc...
i get the following error message when i try to start via DFArc v.3.2.1:
" Invalid -refdir option: C:/Program Files/Dink Smallwood/dink/graphics and/or C:/Program Files/Dink Smallwood/dink/tiles are not accesible "
the prob is i installed the game under a complet different directory namly:
"C:/Games/FreeDink
so why the prog is serching for the files in another path???
i hope u can help me... i relly enjoy this game so far

Since it is vista install it in program files(x86)
Bah, Vista. Try installing as administrator and see if that works for you.
Try passing --refdir with a correct path to where you've installed Dink. This should be the directory that contains the /dink directory. Maybe there's also an option in DFArc to change this.
