Offset 0x3C00 in Version 3.999


Recommended Posts

Would it be possible to modify version 3.999 so that offset 0x3C00 returns the full path to the air file in the same way that version 4.xxx does?

I know I can read FSUIPC version number (Ox3304) and then, if necessary, the FS path (0x3E00) and concatenate that with 0x3C00 but it would be nice not to have to.

Sorry, I'm really not able to do that for risk of wrecking existing programs which assume they have to prepend the FS path.

It's not necessary to read 3304. You can just check whether the string starts with \\ (for a UNC path) or the second character ':' (for a full local path like C:\ ...). If neither then prepend the FS path.
