BI's Tools Drive information

This tool will create a P: drive on your hard drive using the SUBST command. It only associates a folder to a virtual drive. The default folder path is:

"..\My Documents\ArmAWork"

Custom location

You can change the location during the installation process in the installation options.

If you are using P: drive for a different device already, you can change the drive name in the"..\My Documents\ArmAWork\mapdisk.bat".

In this case make sure to adapt the path also in Oxygen 2 PE (File->Options) and in Visitor 3 (Tool->SystemPreferences).

More drives

1: Create a batch file, like myDrive.bat.
2: Make sure not to have a hidden .txt extension.
3: Option the .bat with a text editor.
4: Add the command

subst t: "d:\subFolder\armaTools"

First parameter: drive name/letter. Second parameter: source location to link virtual drive with.

5: Save the file.
6: Put into batch file or a link to it into the windows startup folder to run it automatically each time when windows starts.
