A custom data directory to download the blockchain to does not work when launching, the first time, directly from a shortcut to Umbra. Example shortcut listed below.
C:\..\..\..\umbra.exe -datadir="D:\..\Shadowcash (Umbra)\blockchain"
On launch Umbra still synchs to original/default data directory. To fix this a new shortcut to shadowcoind.exe must be made and ran first:
C:\..\..\..\shadowcoind.exe -datadir="D:\..\Shadowcash (Umbra)\blockchain"
This initialized the blockchain data in the proper data path, but requires the additional step of then creating a shadowcoin.conf with rpc details. After this is done, launching the Umbra shortcut with datadir flag then works synching to updated data directory.
Solution:
Pass the datadir flag and value from an umbra shortcut to shadowcoind and auto-generate a shadowcoin.conf file.
