BUG(?) "the specified directory is invalid" when it is not!

Post by zezin »

Hello there!
I got a message that says "The specified directory is invalid." when i was trying to execute:
$mono tuxlol.exe patch --dir /home/series789/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot\ Games/League\ of\ Legends/.
It happens that the directory is actually real and i can go there manually, but the command doesnt appears to be able to reach it... Someone know's what is the issue with that? i would be very glad to solve this... :oops:

Try removing this part: " --dir " in the pathway.
tuxlol.exe patch /home/series789/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot\ Games/League\ of\ Legends/
Worth a shot.

Didnt work, the tuxlol software expect "patch" and "--dir", it doesnt run without it.

Shouldn't it be patch -d /home/series789/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot\ Games/League\ of\ Legends/

or patch --directory=/home/series789/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot\ Games/League\ of\ Legends/ :?:

Seems to me that the path you specified is not correct. Follow the path to "drive_c/Riot\ Games/League\ of\ Legends/", then right-click that folder, then copy the exact location and paste it into your original path. Sometimes, paths can be tricky.
Good luck.
