Replay Help Needed...

from Sins Forums
Hi,

Im having difficulty in finding the directory of where to place game replays. I have WINDOWS VISTA and DOWNLOADED the game from Stardock directly.

The path IS NOT: C:\Documents and Settings\[YOUR WINDOWS USER NAME]\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Record-SinglePlayer.

I believe since its a downloaded copy the path may be different. It seems the game resides under C:\Programfiles\Stardock but there are not record or save game directories. I have also checked C:\documents etc... but to no avail.

Please give me a hand with this. I love watching repalys and learning strategies.

Thanks!

* Where are the files kept for Sins of a Solar Empire (such as screenshots and such?)

Vista:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

Please note these directories may be Hidden by default. To unhide them, go to your Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View and set yourself to view hidden files and folders.
End of quote


Direct from the technical FAQ -- if your running vista, check users\username, not mydocs\username.

By [YOUR WINDOWS USER NAME] i mean whatever you call yourself when you log onto windows. For me it's Astax. So my folder is C:\Documents and Settings\Astax\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Record-SinglePlayer.

Also if your main drive is not "C" drive, you need to change that too :)

I have the downloaded version of Sins on a XP machine, and I do not have the sub folders inside of the "RecordedGames" folder. When I save replays they are not showing up there (but are watchable). Downloaded files placed in the "RecordedGames" folder do not show up in the game to be watched. I do have show hidden files on.

Should I make the sub folders inside of the "RecordedGames" myself?
