/build_save_file <path>\filename.txt

Saves the current character build (Name, Level, Archetype, Origin, Powers and Slotted Enhancements) to a user specified text file.

Due to limitations of the CoH/V command line parser, the path must be enclosed in quotes if it contains spaces. Thus /build_save_file "C:\City of Heroes\CharacterName.txt" would be a valid command, while /build_save_file C:\City of Heroes\CharacterName.txt would not.
A forward slash (/) or back slash (\) is used in the path depending on the operating system of your computer. For Windows a back slash (\) is used, whereas on Unix based systems such as MacOS and Linux a forward slash (/) is used.
Path may be either a relative or fully defined (absolute) path:

fully defined - C:\Games\Homecoming<COHInstallDirectory>\accounts\<AccountName>\Builds\CharacterName.txt
relative - CharacterName.txt
If the relative path is used (in other words, if you just type the file name), the text file will be saved in <COHInstallDirectory>\accounts\<AccountName>\Builds\ by default. Otherwise, the file location will be saved where ever you specify.

The following are merely examples of using the build_save_file command, your file path may be different.

Defined path:

/build_save_file C:\Games\Homecoming\accounts\AccountName\Builds\CharacterName.txt

Relative path:

/build_save_file CharacterName.txt
