How do I add arbitrary files to a VA profile package (.vax)?
« on: December 01, 2019, 09:42:07 AM »
Now, I have some Python scripts I want to make easy to install alongside the profiles that need them. Can I just arbitrarily add files/folders to a .vax file? Or do I have to pretend they are “sounds”? :)

As the documentation states, you can also add a subfolder of the Apps directory to your .vax, E.G. "Apps\My arbitrary data\", which would be more appropriate for this than the Sounds folder.

Anything in the root of the .vax that isn't a profile or the Apps/Sounds directory will be ignored.

That’s what I was assuming, and yes I guess I’ll add the stuff as a subfolder in Apps/.

I did end up putting the stuff in Sounds. Simply because VoiceAttack forces you to restart it without plugins before you are allowed to import a profile package with an Apps directory.
