Assetpath (Command Line Parameter)

Command Line Parameter

-assetpath path

The new command line argument -assetpath will point the client to the piggs folders, in load order.

Currently, there are 2 folders storing pigg files:

<COH Install Directory>/assets/Issue24 is for all of the original COH pigg files.
<COH Install Directory>/assets/live is for all of the piggs added or altered by Homecoming.

When running City of Heroes without a Homecoming launcher, the game client needs to be directed to both of the above folders by either separating each folder path by a semicolon, or by using -assetpath twice in the command string (one of each folder).
In Issue 26 Page 5, three options were created to be used with -assetpath: "piggs", "homecoming", and "hc_beta". However, Homecoming has since revised the directory structure for the game files, and these options no longer point to the correct folders.
If additional pigg file assets are created for the game, this command can point to those files and tell the game to check the new folder. For example, -assetpath assets\mods
This command line parameter was added by Homecoming in Issue 26 Page 5.
