I would think that the program would look for the combat file in the same Survivor 2rd1_14 folder where it found the data for the turn. But apparently it doesn't.

It is a workaround which works but is kinda messy.

Does anyone have a better solution?
No, there is no better solution than having the files in the "savegame" folder. That is what we have all been saying all along and thought that you were doing. It must be that Mac speak language barrier or something.

The game files have to be in a directory/folder/file called "Savegame" and this "Savegame" folder/file/directory must be in the same folder/file/directory with the se4.exe executable program. You can browse to a different directory as you said ang get the .gam file, but it will not look there for the .cmb files. It will look in the folder/file/directory named "Savegame". You can do what Wardad suggests if you like and then keep your game files all separate. That is not a bad solution. You need ot use the modpicker or modify the path.txt file to get it to work though. And you still need to have the files in a folder/file/directory called "Savegame", but it will be under the mod folder instead of in the same folder/file/directory with the se4.exe program file then.
