foxlarry Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Gentlemen, I am having great difficulty finding the maps I have created from the SB maps supplied with the game. I title the maps I alter as, "MY_Hannover.. etc." I can't find them in my SB map directory, the same way I can find the "stock" maps, and the scenarios I create. I'm concerned that I will not be able to transfer them to SB Version 4 when it is published. Your advice and assistance is appreciated before hand. Thank you! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fincastle Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Hi foxlarry, without knowing what operating system you are using on your computer, I can only suggest to check the SB manual, pages 15-17 are about the file structures used in SB (ie where to find shit on you PC). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma6584 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Also, do you play game as "administrator" on your PC or under some different username? What-ever username you use, that is the file structure to look under. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxlarry Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Fincastle, thank you for your assistance and advice. I realized after sending my post, that I didn't mention that I am using Windows 10. In the past I have been able to follow the instructions in the printed SB manual I purchased. I'll look at the PDF supplied with the download purchases now. enigma6584, thank you also for your reply. I don't go out of my way to use "administrator" mode on my computers. Tech Gurus, advise against using administrator in daily computer ops., and suggest creating sub accounts. Shame on me cause.. I don't. ;-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RENEGADE-623 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 hi fox, its in same directory as always, it is in hidden file in C drive program data.

foxlarry Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 If I understand correctly. The maps I created in SB 3.027, will not be transferable to 4.0. Also, I count myself lucky. That I had the vision to have one of my newer computers use 64 bit. ;-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted August 10, 2016 Members Share Posted August 10, 2016 You can still use your custom maps, and there will be a way to convert them into the new format once that the new terrain engine is finally integrated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxlarry Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 Thanks Sir. Unfortunately, I haven't been very proficient at applying old maps and scenarios I have created, to newer versions of SB. I appreciate your, and the members, help with those issues. ( L.M., Waterbury, CT. ) ;-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
