D3 access to Windows network drives

Hi all

Anyone out there been able to "connect" to Windows drives other than C: ?

I've setup a network drive called 'S' and try as I may D3 will not "see" this.

I've looked into the hosts file and the D3 manual (last restort) but nada.

It works fine if you stick with C: but any other network defined drive #​.




Anyone else had this - or have a solution?

Regards

Stefano

You have to map them from within D3 and have D3 running as a user with privileges to access other servers. Here's an example from a pal's D3 user-coldstart:

!net use h: /delete
!net use h: \\\\server\\folder
!net use i: /delete
!net use i: \\\\server\\folder\\folder\\folder

The /delete makes sure the drive letter is not already in use by D3.

Then just use the drive letter for OSFI access:

OPEN "DOS:I:/blah" TO FILE ELSE BLAH BLAH BLAH
