#16 Wrye Bash ignores bUseMyGamesDirectory setting

[scooby]

By moving the oblivion.ini to the app folder and setting bUseMyGamesDirectory=0, oblivion can be set up to use local directories within the game folder instead of the My Documents\My Games\Oblivion.

Wrye Bash always assumes that the My Games folder is used.

The fix is to check if app\oblivion.ini exists and bUseMyGamesDirectory=0 before finalizing the dirs[] paths.
Additionally, some references involving dirs[\'saveBase\'] may need to be ammended.

I\'ve made the required changes to my own copy of bash v287 and it appears to work, though I am not familiar with python or wrye\'s code, so I don\'t expect I resolved it completely.

I haven\'t thoroughly tested yet, but I have attached the modified files.
I\'ll report back when I have tested more.

(oh one pythonic coding note:
comments are usually written as:

rather than:
"""this is a comment"""

There was a couple of leftover debug print statements and a bug in one of the statements following.
Hopefully you noticed those in the diff?

Ammendments to the the bosh.py I attached..

Fix for double appended Saves\Saves\ path

dirs['saveBase'] = dirs['app'].join(oblivionIni.getSetting('General', 'SLocalSavePath','Saves\'))
With:

I inspected rev619 and it appears you have corrected the errors I mentioned. Re-Closing.
