Where to save a modified scenario file?

Post by mussey »

Unless I missed it in the manual or threads, I'm uncertain where to save a modified ".sce" file of an existing scenario.

As a recent test, I altered a few unit set-up locations for an existing scenario, but it would not allow me to save it (protected?). My hunch is that I should save it to the My Documents/My Games/TAOW/to that specific scenario, thus overwriting the original .sce file. Is this right?

I would be afraid to overwrite the original myself. I'm not on STEAM and don't know
how or where to save your files but there must be a place.

You can make a folder, (i.e. "My Games" in My Document/My Games/TOAW/Scenario?) and save to that. And leave the original untouched.

I figured this out. I would save it to the respective Scenario folder within the Documents/My Games/etc section. I was getting the various file sections of Program Files, and Program Files (x86) mixed up. I'm assuming that most, if not all new or modified scenarios are saved here...

It's kind of explained in Post #1 here:
tm.asp?m=4381180

and I think there was further explanation somewhere but I can't find it right now.
