Configuring Profile Path in SPV3.2 (and HCE)

[MirisWisdom]

SPV3.2's loader/kernel, HXE, lets you declare a custom profile path:

.\hxe.exe -path "C:\Users\user\Documents\My Games"

Since HXE is a also wrapper for HCE (imagine it as haloce.exe with a bit of sugar on top), you could use it for normal HCE installations as well. With this in mind, you could create different shortcuts to hxe.exe with different -path values.

For example:

# Halo CE Shortcut.ink
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\hxe.exe" -path "C:\Users\<USER>\Documents\My Games"

# SPV3.2 Shortcut.ink (notice you can share the paths, thus share the profiles)
"C:\Users\<USER>\Documents\My Games\SPV3\hxe.exe" -path "C:\Users\<USER>\Documents\My Games"

# Another HCE Shortcut.ink
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\hxe.exe" -path "C:\Path\To\Profiles"

Mind you, for SPV3.2, this means bypassing its GUI loader; however, the GUI is a pretty front for HXE, so you'll be fine to use HXE directly.

Let me know if you have any questions. Perhaps we could even integrate your code into HXE for easier profile management.
