Modding / Re: Variant editing with dev mode [current workaround issue]
« on: April 26, 2016, 10:51:56 PM »It saves the .variant files in:
../../starfarer.res/res/data/variants/
Relative to the saves directory. Which happens to be where they're at in the dev environment, but doesn't match an actual install. You may need to create those folders manually, and would need to copy the .variant files over to wherever you need them. Perhaps this is the missing piece?
So to clarify, the path would be in this case: downloads/starsector/starfarer.res/res/data/variants/ or: downloads/starsector/saves/starsector.res/res/data/variants/ ?
Also I have copied the variant files, but should i leave the original variant files in data as well? The dev mode editor seems to want to read the variant files from that location only. It still will not save any changes to the variant files.
