Help finding directory in Albion Prelude

Post by rich1 » Mon, 4. Mar 13, 12:12

Hi, I’m new to modding and I like to install a few extra ships into the game. I’ve enabled the script editor installed cycrow’s mod installer and found a few ships I like. However when I try to install them I get the following: (there are currently no valid directories to install to) can anyone help as I cant find the where A P is in Program files. I’m running Albion Prelude Terran war pack (disk set) on windows 7

The X3AP directory is called "addon" and can be found within the X3TC main directory, by default C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\X3 Terran Conflict\addon.

The "addon" directory is the X3AP directory!

Going by defaults, the EXE itself is C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\X3 Terran Conflict\X3AP.exe
The data files that make up AP are in C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\X3 Terran Conflict\addon\
When running AP, it first loads the .cat/.dat pairs of X3TC, then adds the ones in ..\addon\ to it. Then it loads the scripts, tfiles, and other assets in ..\addon\. This means if you add mods to your TC install, it'll probably break AP.
