Default Re: Races and SEIV folder structure

Races go in the Space Empires IV/Pictures/Races folder. If you're playing a mod, they go into the (Modname)/Pictures/Races folder

So, for example, the TDM Modpack Eee would be:

Space Empires IV/Pictures/Races/Eee

Both the pictures and AI text files go in the same folder. If you want an alternate AI for the same set of pictures, you have to do some renaming.

Two ways of doing this. If you don't want the two AIs in the same game, just copy the race's folder and paste it somewhere else. Then put the new AI in the original folder, replacing the text files already in. To switch between the two, copy/paste the new AI out of the Pictures folder and the old back in.

If you want them both in at the same time, do the same. Except this time, paste into the Pictures folder, and re-name the folder. Now you have to go in to that folder and change every file to match the new folder name.

So: if you changed Eee to Eeek,
Eee_Mini_Escort.bmp would be renamed to
Eeek_Mini_Escort.bmp

and on down with all the other files.
