Curious Artila Gon Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hi, I am replaying the original Exile series in Mac OS 9 set up in Sheepshaver, works like a dream, much better than in Classic on a real PPC. I downloaded the demos, emailed them the codes and they got back to me with the keys. I registered all six programs, three games and three editors. Now I am looking for the preferences to make a backup copy to save to my OSX main drive out of the OS9 emulated harddrive. OS9 preferences should be in System folder, preferences, right? But I can only find the prefs to E2, E2 editor and E3. Missing the prefs to the other three. Are they stored elsewhere or as an invisible file? For now I'm backing up the whole emulated OS9 harddrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Slarti Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I remember they were in different locations. I would just run a find command for something obvious ("exile"). On the plus side, Spiderweb has cheerfully provided me with replacement codes for original Exile games after losing my original copies, even though I had registered them 15 years previously! Now that's customer service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Exile Preferences were in the global Preferences folder; should be something like "Macintosh HD:System Folder:Preferences:Exile Preferences". As far as I know, all the games stored them there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
