Revision d369a6a by Brecht Van Lommel (master) May 27, 2011, 09:57 (GMT) |
Windows installer and Path changes, fixing various issues: * Windows installer not working for non-admin users and multiple users * Addon scripts not installing next to user configuration * Portable install not being taken into account in all places The main problem was the windows installer was installing system scripts in AppData next to the user configuration directory, which is not shared between users. Now these are installed in ProgramFiles, and only addon scripts added by the users go to AppData. On all platforms, addon scripts were sometimes getting installed between system scripts, because the scripts folder in the executable directory was given precedence over the user configuration folder, that is no longer done now. So addons now behave like user configuration, they are preserved even if you download a newer build of the same blender version. If you have an installation of 2.57 on windows, the addon install location will not change until we do the version bump to 2.58, to avoid conflicts with the existing the installed 2.57 version. The old behavior of giving precedence to the local folder was done to support portable install, where all configuration is written to the local folder. This is now implemented differently: if and only if a "config" folder exists in the local folder, portable install will be assumed, and files will only be written to that local folder. |
