Virtual file

I want to virtualize a specific file in an addon folder in World of Warcraft. So, in ISBoxer, I made a virtual file called core.lua. Works perfectly and for quite some time now. With one exception it also vitualizes any other file ending with core.lua in any of the other folders in the Warcraft folder. Found that out while trying to fix another problem.
Can I somehow specify the folder for the file to be virtualized? Tried first off course, but can't get it to work.

Re: Virtual file

you normally just put more of the name in there.

eg. to virtualise something like c:\temp\file.txt you could specify temp/file.txt (I think you need to do the forward slash rather than backslash, but I'm not 100% on whether it makes any difference).

Re: Virtual file

I have experienced the same issue, and was only ever to get the file to virtualize without the path. Unfortunately, I don't know of any workaround, but I had not tried to use a forward slash.

Re: Virtual file

Sorry for the late response, was otherwise occupied. Will try the forward slash method and report back.

Re: Virtual file

Adding the directory, followed by forward slash and file name did the trick.

Thanks
