Yes, thats what I meant when I wrote that I'd like to make this directory more stable so my pendrive would be for example z: on every PC. Sorry if made it a bit inconsistent

If I recall correctly, the .ini file supports relative paths. So you can have 3 folders on your pendrive : ProgramDir, CommonDir, and UserDir, with your .ini file containing
That should not depend of the drive letter. Updates & everything should behave as expected ^_^

The registry is only used for machine-related config (graphic settings and such likes). So your portable install will be able to run with nice graphics on a High-end PC, and still run smoothly on a laptop or slower rig, without requesting any changes.

I you want to try, I think you can directly do that from the setup file : just specify correct folders on your pendrive, then edit the .ini file to use relative paths instead of absolute ones, and you're all set.

Hey guys!

It was my problem and Qitay wrote it for me but now I have another problem. When I try start the game I have statement that file d3dx9_43.dll is not found. I thought that I can copy this on other computer but I haven't access to system files... and to the install too. Can you help? Do you know a solution?

Greetings szubi

hi & welcome

This file is part of DirectX 9, "Direct 3D" subsystem.
It is usually placed in your Windows system32 folder, and newer Windows versions use Dx10 or Dx11 nowadays, which is partially backwards compatible.

If you can't access this folder, you have to ask the local admin to check and update DirectX.

ahh I understand ^^ Hmm I think I can have problem with this because the admin is a teacher I would like to play in tm on the some lessons because some subjects are boring and I know everything what teacher talk xD

Hehe. I remember a teacher who brought TrackMania to his class, as small rewards for good participation of his pupils.
Perhaps you should talk to your teacher

Nice I will try
