folder not found
« on: 05 Jan 2012, 20:13:33 »
hey people,

about 2 weeks ago i decided to replay OFP1985 after 6-7years and have a strange problem.
When i save an edited mission,i can't find the "saved"folder in my OFP directory.
Now I know it's been a while since i've played and edited but I'm sure I know where to look
(codemasters/users/.....) and the folder simply doesn't exist.
I tried creating a folder myself in the directory but saved missions don't end up in it,they simply disappear into the twilight zone.I can access them in the game but impossible to locate in the OFP directory.Tried reinstalling but no use.
Can anyone help me and explain the cause.

Tnx.

I think you have to click the 'compatibility files' option when viewing the ofp directory to access the 'user saved' missions.

Man, I also had that problem. It's fixed when I changed it of directory, so the computer was from my brother and I need permission to add some folder to C//: Disk. So I decided mover it to my docs, and now user folder is added.

I hope it helps
