[PluginSDK] getResourcesPath

[SilentStorm]

The Function is currently redundant as it gives the same result as getAppPath. Whatever it is supposed to return (Path the Client loads Resources like Images from maybe?) it doesn't do it right now.

On Mac OS X getResourcesPath returns a different location than getAppPath. On Windows and Linux they are indeed the same. However, if you want to get the path to gfx, sound etc., you should use getResourcesPath else things won't be found on Mac.

Reason is the different file structure of a Mac application bundle, compared to Windows/Linux.

Windows structure is:
getAppPath() => <install_root>\ts3client_win32.exe
getResourcesPath() => <install_root>\gfx (sound etc.)
(same on Linux)

Mac structure is:
getAppPath() => <app_bundle_root>/MacOS/ts3client_mac
getResourcesPath() => <app_bundle_root>/SharedSupport/gfx (sound etc.)

As you can see, trying to find the e.g. gfx dir with getAppPath() on Mac will fail.

Apple and its weirdo stuff :/

Thanks for the info though

Is there a teamspeak lua function that will tell me where my config files are installed ?

Shouldn't the resource path return the location of where the config file are located ?
>>> C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\TS3Client

I have a lua script backing up my config files, but right now it only works if my config directory is installed in the same directory ts is installed.

That should be ts3.getConfigPath().
