That's probably a pre-pvrx2 based method.

Yeah, sorry it still returns "skin" for compatibility with the legacy plugins. You can probably do a .Replace("\\skin\\", "\\skin2\\").

yeah i ended up replacing it like that, but dont want to hard code that replacement incase the skin directory changes (reverts back to just being skin).

is there anyway for the pluginhelper to detect the assembly its excuting from, and if its PVRX2 return the correct path?

PVRX2 can run old legacy plugins too, so I cant make that assumption.

[reven]

oh bugger. im just concerned that hardcoding the path could break if the skin2 path name was ever changed

[sub]

I'm not intending to change the skin2 part of the name, so you're pretty safe. In two place I've done "PluginHelper.GetSkinRootDirectory().Replace("\\skin\\", "\\skin2\\");" myself, so you're pretty safe doing it if you need to.
