2.5 dev: Where are all my game files?
« on: January 18, 2013, 03:32:59 pm »

Hi people.

I have encountered a problem:

in /base/ufos/ there are supposed to be various files such as:

maps.ufo
weapons.ufo

The thing is, that in my folder there is only a ptl_misc.ufo and nothing else.
File-search hasn't yielded any results either.
I'd need the maps-file to mod out the broken maps as explained here: http://ufoai.org/forum/index.php?topic=7249.0

The game as such is working fine though, so they have to be somewhere I guess.

Any ideas?

If you used an installer you have couple of pk3 files, they contain the rest of the files.

Thanks geever.

I'd say I found them in the 0maps.pk3-file in the /base folder.
