Hi!

I was wondering if it's possible to change the path to where bottles are created/stored?
I have an external disk i'd like to have these on to free up space on my macbook.

I cant seem to find any obvious setting in the GUI, perhaps possible in some configuration file.
Is the only option to use symlink?

Seems i found the answer in the user guide(didn't know there was one until now) :)

Changing where a user’s bottles are located The default user bottle directory is ~/Library/Application Support/
CrossOver/Bottles. Even when using published bottles this directory is used to store user-local settings. The location of
this directory can be changed via the BottleDir preference:
$ defaults write com.codeweavers.CrossOver BottleDir /path/to/user_private/non_networked/ ←-
bottle/dir
It is very important that you not point this setting to a directory that contains the published bottles themselves, as user settings
will conflict with the system settings.
Using a networked or remote volume for the bottle directory may result in serious performance problems and is generally a
bad idea.
