bitdman Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 If I put two config. xml files in one folder with two different EXE's will changing one of the xml files to configuration.xml(2) still be read by the exe it belongs to?
0 TechAngel85 Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 No idea. This wouldn't work FOMODs, but that's probably not what you're doing here.
0 GrantSP Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Not sure of the situation you are experimenting with but I would say in any situation as soon as you rename the extension of a config file the executable will no longer view it as one and just consider as another random file.I don't believe any executable reads first the contents of a file before examining the extension.So config.xml is read as is but config.xml(2) will be read, at best, as just a text file.
