Can't find .ogz or .cfg HELP!!

Post by Xenone »

Hey, I was working on a project and I started having some problems. First off, I can't get thing to speak to me when I activate the trigger. I have looked at the FAQ on the topic and tried it but it doesn't work. I have copied the same format as the save the princess thing but it doesn't even work in that game either. Second, I have been editing this on the system (main menu -> Editing GUI-> cfg) because I can't find the .ogz file for any of my maps, and I also can't find the .cfg files. It says they have been created but I have searched my whole computer and I couldn't find anything.

I run a Mac 10.5.7 Leopard and I am using the latest version of Sandbox that runs on Mac (not the very latest one, but the one before it). I have downloaded the Master Chef and the text works there.

Please help,

Xenone

P.S. Great job on Sandbox. It rocks.

Hey by the way I just figured out the first part. I still can't find the files for the maps I make though so I do need help on that.

Yeah the text dialog popups will only work in sp(single player) mode.
Are you sure your maps/cfgs aren't in packages/base folder?
I myself use Linux, and on a nix system all user created maps are saved in a hidden directory
in my home folder. that being /home/username/.platinumarts
I would imagine your maps would be saved to a hidden directory as well on
mac osx. As it is also technically a unix based operating system.
hope this helped.

I have checked the base folder many times but I haven't found any of my maps in it. I tried looking for a hidden file but I have no idea what it might be called. I know that they exist somewhere otherwise I wouldn't be able to reopen them, but I can't find them. Hopefully some mac user can tell me how. Thanks though!
