Legacylayout (Command Line Parameter)

Command Line Parameter

-legacylayout

Enables existing installs of the game client to find certain files when you aren't launching the game with Tequila, Island Rum, or the Homecoming launcher.

• The -legacylayout launch parameter is for old installations of City of Heroes that do not use the current directory structure for the game files. If your game does not use the current locations for the various game files, you should always include -legacylayout or the game client won't be able to find certain files.
• This only applies if you aren't launching the game with Tequila, Island Rum, or the Homecoming launcher. If you are using a launcher, then this command is unnecessary.
• This command line parameter was added by Homecoming in Issue 26 Page 5.
• The current (July 2023) sub-folders in the standard Homecoming installation are as follows:

"C:\Games\Homecoming\accounts"
"C:\Games\Homecoming\assets" 
"C:\Games\Homecoming\bin"
"C:\Games\Homecoming\cache"
"C:\Games\Homecoming\data"
"C:\Games\Homecoming\logs"
"C:\Games\Homecoming\screenshots"
"C:\Games\Homecoming\settings"
