nope, down in the program files region are the CORE game files. nothing goes there.

look up (now, I'm not famialiar with w10) but probably in the /users/*yourname*/savedgames folder. my image below, while not the, gives some idea of the pathway

If I'm wrong, I'm sure one of our other members WITH w10 can give you the exact path (which is sure is slightly different)

yeah, still in the works. Hope to get back to it after anniversy edition of ODS is completed (terrain wise with Menrva). All the aircraft are done (with a newer replacement for an older model being worked on for release -hopefully- sometime next year. Depends on the modelers other commitments - which are many)

of course, if someone want to build a NEW freeware P-63 -- i have all the decals ready

I see inconsistent mod names for folders. Is this because of international users? For instants, I download a file and get a folder called "Sound" but my mod folder is "Sounds" so now I have 2 folders. Is this a cause of international language? For the US, what are the basic folder names?

Ok, since there ARE differences between Win7 and Win10, would someone be kind enough to write a tutorial on the proper installations of mods to Winge10 mods folders. Then send it to me, and I'll post it in the SF2 Knowledge Base.

It about damn time we have something like this!!!

Of Course I have this problem now, after migrating to a larger drive. I've read everything I could find in the Knowledge base, but no go. And yes, it's WIN 10.

I made the changes in the options.ini

[Mods]
ModsEnabled=TRUE
Directory=D:\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Europe
Editors=StrikeFighters2

[ScreenShots]
Directory=D:\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Europe\ScreenShots
Format=JPG

I made sure the "saved games" folder in my main (c) drive had a copy of it and the version.ini as well.

The pathway and all entries seem correct, but the game will not progress beyond the initializing screen. What am I missing?

You were dead on. After I posted the message, I felt there was 1 little something I was missing. so I kept looking at it, deleted that exact line, and "Voila", we have planes in the air. Thank You for the assist.
