seandisanti Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hehe could you make me a example? i didnt find much help in the help file. i don't have the game, so i wouldn't know what to actually look for in the registry, but if you search for 'registry' on the forums, you should get a few examples of searching in the registry and using data from it. There are also examples in the help file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xero Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 (edited) Hehe could you make me a example? i didnt find much help in the help file. I do have the game, but I am currently at work.To my knowledge, WoW doesn't create any reg keys, but surely it must put something there when its installed..One way to manually find it is go to Start, click on Run, and type in regedit and press OK. When this loads, go to file, click on find and type in World of Warcraft". Hopefully that will bring up any reg keys related to WoW.If you're still stuck later on i'll find where it is on my comp and point you in the right direction .:EDIT:.Sorry, this may be of no use, as it doesn't explain how to do it with AutoIt.. I was just explaining to find the path of the WoW reg key on your own computer.. Sorry! Edited January 15, 2007 by xero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vindicator209 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 to find what you need, you can head into your System32 folder for the RegEdit, and from the looks of your first post, it looks like it should be around: C:\WINDOWS\system32\regedt32.exe It goes through all your registry files so you can search using that [center]"When you look at old, classic games like Snake, you often put it off because it's such a simple game, but it's only when you actually try and create your own unique game from scratch, do you finally appreciate those games."[/center][center]Don't ask for answers if you haven't TRIED yet![/center][center]Most answers can be answered in the help file!

Helge Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Figured ..Figured... ? Correct me if I'm wrong but are you implying that nobody knew the answer ? Was 13 minutes of waitingtoo long for you to wait for a reply, and was it really needed to make a new topic when you already hadthis one ? If they don't know it in this topic why should they know in another topic ?You've already been told what function which reads a registry-value and you obviously knows how to runa file. Put one and one together... Lots of question, I know, but I'm just curious of your way of thinking.Anyway, please take this the right way. I'm not trying to hang you.

Leandro Conca Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 (edited) The working dir can not be a registry path! Supposing that InstallPath is a key in the registry that contains the installation folder: i.e.: InstallPath =C:\Program files\World of Warcraft You could read that value to a variable and then set the variable as the Working dir. $WoWFolder = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Joymax\Silkroad", "InstallPath" ) Run("sro_client.exe", $WoWFolder) Hope that helps.
