MOD's hints for MAC users only

To easily access your MODable folders

1. Open the game
2. Click Settings
3. Open the Troubleshooting tab
4. Click Open Folder containing customizable data
5. Press Command-Up Arrow
6. Drag the one folder you see into the right hand side of the dock

Now, any time you need your MOD's folder you can find it easily, even if the game is not open, from the dock. I personally also change (by right clicking on the dock icon) the display to grid and folder...two separate actions.

If you want, before dragging the folder into the dock, you can add a custom icon to the folder.

1. Open picture
2. Select all
3. Copy
4. Select the folder of customizable data
5. Get Info
6. Click on the icon
7. Paste

You can repeat that procedure for all the folders in your mod folder, and nothing is affected by it.

I also created an OOTP folder in my Applications folder and store not only the game app, but eriqjaffe's fine utility apps in it, also in my dock.
