Additional information
How to use it
Simply run the Arma 3 Tools package on Steam and select "Prepare virtual P: Drive" from the Steam launcher or Play Arma 3 Tools, select P: Drive (DevP) then default. The batches prepare P: drive with content required for using Arma 3 Buldozer in Addon builder and Terrain Builder if you have Arma 3 installed.
DevP can take one of the following parameters:
- "DevP.bat -DEBUG": Only display the paths and values used, no action will be made.
- "DevP.bat -clearInstall": Remove almost every files or references made by DevP
- "DevP.bat -cleanInstall": Perform "clearInstall", then, execute DevP in normal state.
- "DevP.bat -mapDiskOnly": Just map the P drive and ignore all the rest
mapDisk.bat and mapDisk also handle the -DEBUG parameter.
In case of problem
The behavior of DevP may differ from a machine to another, making it hard to fix in some cases, so, in case of problem, we invite you to run Arma3Tools_diag_retail and post a new ticket or a thread with the result of the diagnostic script.
How to remove it
To simply remove P: drive, Open command prompt and enter
subst p: /d
To remove all data added by DevP, Open command prompt in your Arma 3 Tools directory and enter
DevP.bat -clearInstall
