Almanac Folder

soxman · 12-18-2010, 04:42 AM

I think it would be a good idea if you could select the destination folder where the almanac is stored. In this way people could save the almanac directly onto an external hard drive if they wish.

Any support for this idea?

Cheers & a slightly premature Merry Xmas to all!!

It's a step-saver, in that you can move the folder after generation. What'd be ideal, and it may be what you're suggesting, is that the dropdown could access that external HD or other location rather than clogging up game space. It's just not reasonable to have all that data in the game folder itself, especially when most of us utilize backup through a zip or rar file for the whole league folder. Just way too much time with that history in the game. OTOH, how often do we really access the almanac in-game? There's not any reason why we just can open it up outside the game even while we're playing it. That's what I do when I need a peak.
