How do I locate Saved Games?

Post by flatsix518 »

I have Napoleon at War installed on a MacBook Pro. I did a plain vanilla install and did not specify where to locate saved or pbem files.

For the life of me, I cannot find the default saved or pbem file directories. I've tried locating them using finder and nosing around using the Unix terminal.

Where would these normally be located?

Thanks,

John

I wish I could help but I don't know :(

You could try saving a game and looking for a file modified today in the finder program?

Thanks Iain,

After hacking thru in Unix using find and grep from the root dir, I located them.

For future reference, saved games are located at:
/Applications/Commander - Napoleon at War.app/Contents/Resources/CNAW.app/Contents/save

And PPBEM games are located at:
/Applications/Commander - Napoleon at War.app/Contents/Resources/CNAW.app/Contents/pbem

Still is a bit of a problem, because Finder doesn't allow one to navigate below the "Commander - Napoleon at War.app" icon. It treats it as an executable when in reality it's a directory. In Unix, one can get to the actual save dirs. Hmmm. Getting closer, though.
