Hey there,

I had a quick question, I understand how to change the installation path using my parent domain using the hosts tab, but I wanted to know how I could change my installation path via a sub-domain.

Example:
Say I wanted to install Americas Army 3 on one of my sub-domains for a client, by default it wants to go to: E:\GSP\Game Hosting\GameCreate-3682\aa3 ..... I don't want to change the base path area "E:\GSP\Game Hosting" but I'd like to change "\GameCreate-3682" to something where it can identify who the sub-domain belongs to like:
"E:\GSP\Game Hosting\GameCreate-3682-JohnSmith\aa3"

I'd want to do this to help me more easily identify which directory belongs to which client.

So, is there a way I can change that specific area of the path name within a sub-domain like the example above? If so, how?

-Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Unfortunately you cannot do this at this time, its locked in as GameCreate-xxx

What you may want to do is simply have a quick 'cheat sheet' of Domain ID's to GameCreate Domain names.

You can access this uniquename->id list through a web service if you like, here's an example:

http://demo.eu.gamecreate.com/admin/Remote.asmx?page=op&tab=test&op=GetSubDomainList&bnd=Remote_asmxSoap&ext=testform&actorUsername=demoadmin&actorPassword=demoadmin&domainId=2783

Thanks for the reply mate,

Its to bad you can't do that . I've basically been doing something similar to your cheat sheet idea. Its no big deal, just a little bit of extra documentation that has to be kept. Just thought I'd ask. Thanks again for the reply.

Given you have access to the uniquename and domain id, you could even code up (or manually) something to create windows shortcuts (or linux symlinks) to the folder with a friendly name - just a thought

That's a great idea! Thank you sir!
