Cant find save directory...

February 6, 2008 6:47:58 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I just want to say...the game is great,I haven't had this much fun in some time.However I have been having trouble locating the save directory and the replay directory

I tried going, Documents & Settings>Username>Application Data>Ironclad Games.

But when i try to locate the Ironclad Games folder....it does not exist,I even saved a couple of games and made some of my own recordings.I then quit the game and try to find the directory...still does not exist.I can however start up the game and load the saved files and recorded games I made.

I'm at my wits end,If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

P.S. I apologize for my grammar.

The saves and configuration files are located in Docs and Settings\Username\Local Settings\App Data\Ironclad. The Local Settings folder is hidden by default, so you will need to have the show hidden files option on in explorer. Once you've gotten there you can just make a shortcut and re-hide hidden files if you like.

This did not work for me. Showing hidden files, I enter local settings and only the "Application Data," "History," Temporary Internet Files," and "Temp" folders are present. I enter the "Application Data" folder and the only folder inside that one is "Microsoft." Inside the "Microsoft" folder are the "Media Player" and "Windows Media" folders. These lead no where to an Ironclad folder. I did a search of my c drive and a search of the entire computer via the start menu, and didn't find any folders called Ironclad. I did a search just for the name of my saves as well... nothing! What is going on here?
