I'm having trouble installing maps on my MacBook. This is running OS Lion; 10.7.3 and Warzone 2.3.9 runs perfectly.
The instructions say to install the file into 'library/application support/warzone 2100 2.3/maps' ensuring it is a .wz file.
However, this folder does not exist anywhere in my system, and simply creating the folder does not work. Sometimes the map files do come up with a further extension; .wz.cpgz
Any solutions?
Many thanks.

Re: Mac OS Lion
Actually they say to use ~/Library/Application Support/Warzone 2100 2.3/maps/ the '~' means your home folder, also in 10.7 the Library folder is hidden so you will want the 'Go to Folder' command under the 'Go' menu.Chrissyguit wrote:I'm having trouble installing maps on my MacBook.

As for the issue with the extensions just deleting the extraneous cruft should be enough.

Re: Mac OS Lion
Is it worth updating the file locations wiki page (I'm not sure who has access to change it)?

Re: Mac OS Lion
From what I can tell except for the note about Library being hidden on 10.7+ FileLocations seems to be entirely correct.aubergine wrote:Is it worth updating the file locations wiki page (I'm not sure who has access to change it)?
