P:/ Drive for Arma 3

Recommended Posts

So, I installed Arma 3 tools but I don't have a P: Drive anymore. From what I read...I don't need one, but what exactly should I do if I don't want a P: Drive? Do I have to make any kind of special folders or anything? Thanks for the help.

I would highly recommend a p drive esp if you plan on making terrains. Plus it keeps your work nice and organized.

there are folders and shortcuts for that... no need for a fake drive. Arma is important to me but not THAT important

If you have to install stuff (e.g. BinPBO) from Arma 2 Tools (V2.5) you can just leave the P drive option unchecked...

Putting models into the game works without P drive.

I personally recommend using it. I know you mentioned you didnt want one. But its so easy to use. Maybe some info to change your mind.

Understanding of a "Substitute drive"

Files to play with. Substitute drive.zip

You will need to make a project folder that your going to use for the Sub drive. This will be where your addons an such will be. You can make this folder anywhere you want. Place the two bat files from the zip into the folder you made an right click on the "Enable X Drive" an select edit. Change the X: to what ever letter you want. Like P: for example. Then change the path "G:\A3Work" to the path where you made your project folder. save an close. Next edit the "Disable X Drive" bat file same way. All you need to change is the X: to what ever letter you used for the "Enable X Drive" bat file. Save an close. Double click the "Enable X Drive" an you should see it display in a second or so. Small tip thou. When you delete something from your sub drive I think it permanently deletes it.So you wont be able to recover from the recycle bin if needed. But its easy to setup a sub drive.
