Talk about anything in Runes of Magic. This does not need to pertain to botting.

folders in rom folder.

#1 Post by jasn » Tue Jan 24, 2012 2:37 am

Was wondering if anyone else have these folders in their rom folder.
Crashreport
Log
Screenshot

The one im wondering mostly about is the log folder, it seems to collect the ingame chat and i dont know for what reason.
And i u delete these folders they will pop up again.

The crash and Screen folders takes up a whole lot of space after awhile so i decided to send it to the "binary space".
And it didnt affect the game, in anyway i can see.

i made a batch script that deletes the log folder every 3 mins with the scheduler, due to the fact i dont know what the folder is for and the purpose of it.

Heres the code if u dont wanna do one yerself.

Code: Select all

rmdir /s /q "C:\Runes of Magic\Log" 
dont forget to change the path to YOUR installation folder.

Well it seems to be those folders are set up with starting RoM.
The client checks if its around and if not create them.

1. Screenshots: Seems to be logical. If you make in the game a screenshot it is placed inside that folder
2. Crashreport: No folder here
3. Log: :shock: :o

Didn't realized that before. Someone out there who has some information about that?
My Log folders starts 06.12.2011 and there seems to be a log file for every day I logged in.

I wouldn't be too worried about the chat logs. It is not uncommon to have them saved, and there is probably a way to disable it. It's not like they are being sent to Frogster or something as they would already be able to log everything as it is sent to the server; no need to save it to your hard drive and send it again.

thats just a log of chat/text from in game, all the weird letters are probably system chat. It's been there ever since I started playing the game.
