Can I rename my addon folders with a .bat file? [Solved]
So I have two addon folders in my gamedata directory that I rename depending on what configuration of mods that I want to play with (because of the 500 mission restriction). That means that while one of the folders is correctly named addon, the other is named addon_alt, or addon_main depending on which folder is currently not in use. However, it can get tedious renaming the folders and I was wondering if it could be done from a .bat program that i could have from my desktop. If this is possible, how is it done?

This works:
Drop it in your Gamedata folder where your "addon" and "addon_alt" folder is, then create a shortcut to this batch file on your Desktop.
Code: Select all
ren addon temp
ren addon_alt addon
ren temp addon_alt
