does anyone know how i can save my demo files to a different location?
use ntfs junction links: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_junction_point
prec_dir nameoffolder
for example, i use “prec_dir demos” and it creates the folder demos inside tf/ ,where it stores all my demos and killstreaks.txt

do you know if this folder has to be located in /tf? or can i redirect it to another drive?
Junction Points, so last century.
Windows can do symlinks since Windows Vista
"mklink /d PATHTOLINK PATHTOACTUALFOLDER"

whats the difference?
Windows 7 and Windows Vista support symbolic links for both files and directories with the command line utility mklink. Unlike junction points, a symbolic link can also point to a file or remote Server Message Block (SMB) network path. Additionally, the NTFS symbolic link implementation provides full support for cross-filesystem links. However, the functionality enabling cross-host symbolic links requires that the remote system also support them, which effectively limits their support to Windows Vista and later Windows operating systems.
in this scenario it actually makes no difference, I never really looked into junction point and regarded them as “shit”, but that is probably because my first use-case was a file and unlike symlinks, junctions only support folders.
