Recovering My Games...

rpriske · 08-19-2013, 11:55 AM

So I recently had my old iMac give up the ghost. I now have a new one and I managed to save all my data from the old computer... almost.

I have OOTP14 back up and running, but when I thought I had saved my old game info, I actually had saved my OOTP13 info.

This is because on the Mac, OOTP14 info is no longer saved in the documents folder. (An odd decision, by the way...)

I am going it to get the data off my old iMac tonight (it won't boot up on its own, but the Apple Store folks can access it using Target Disk Mode...)

So... in short, could someone please remind me WHERE OOTP14 stores its info on a Mac? Full path woudl be handy, if you have it.

Thanks a lot.

For OOTP 14 the OOTP Folder is

/Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/Out of the Park Developments/

FYI, it was an Apple decision to move where program files are stored, not an OOTP decision.
