- The main OpenTTD directories can be found in various locations, depending on
- your operating system:
- 1. The current working directory (from where you started OpenTTD)
- For non-Windows operating systems OpenTTD will not scan for files in this
- directory if it is your personal directory, i.e. '~/', or when it is the
- root directory, i.e. '/'.
- 2. Your personal directory
- Windows: C:\My Documents\OpenTTD (95, 98, ME)
- C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\OpenTTD (2000, XP)
- C:\Users\<username>\Documents\OpenTTD (Vista, 7)
- Mac OSX: ~/Documents/OpenTTD
- Linux: $XDG_DATA_HOME/openttd which is usually ~/.local/share/openttd when
- built with XDG base directory support, otherwise ~/.openttd
- 3. The shared directory
- Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\OpenTTD (2000, XP)
- C:\Users\Public\Documents\OpenTTD (Vista, 7)
- Mac OSX: /Library/Application Support/OpenTTD
- Linux: not available
- 4. The binary directory (where the OpenTTD executable is)
- Windows: C:\Program Files\OpenTTD
- Linux: /usr/games
- 5. The installation directory (Linux only)
- Linux: /usr/share/games/openttd
- 6. The application bundle (Mac OSX only)
- It includes the OpenTTD files (grf+lng) and it will work as long as they
- are not touched
