barkhorn45 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Maybe a stupid question but how do you install new files and scen.?I can't locate a scen folder in the data folder or a graphics folder to extract to. To update I just read on forum about scen not showing up,it mentions a game data/scenario folder my install doesn't show it. It's installed in program files(x86)the data folder shows nothing but 6 brz files 100 thru 112 and an intro file nothing else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Yes, this is new for BF (CMFI and GL) as it wasn't like that for previous CM2 titles. It is a bit strange. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vergeltungswaffe Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Not at all. Because of the way Windows looks at permissions, there are many games that go the documents route. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 One always has to explain things one says here, so here goes: "It's a bit strange that they changed a system that all BF's customers were used to from CMBN to CMFI." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM Stuff Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 For a cup of month I was in the same situation, I do not found the way for new scenaris. Personly I don't like the system from CMFI (C:\Users\"My name"\Documents... but like "Vergeltungswaffe" said this is the way windows looks at permissions....). I "moved" all C:\Users\"My name"\Documents in (E drive is to me the Game drive) I use only C for system another drive for d datas... because I want keep all documents and saved documents on another drive and have CMFI files in the same drive if windows will crash. Only to better understand the path, and find it very quickly in the forum, I changed the way C(instead E):\Users\"My name"\Documents\Battlefront... Hope next game from BF Bagration will use the path like CMBN... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hope next game from BF Bagration will use the path like CMBN... The way Windows expects things to be I do not think that will happen. I just hope that there is a place in the settings that we can control where the game files go. Heck even an install option would be better than it is now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
