Help! Addon folder Issues
Hi well I know how to make an add on folder but when I go to game data I attempt to make a new folder and I get an Access Denieed popup does anyone know how to fix this? Also there are 2 Gamedata folders I click the first and there is another within that folder. I have tried creating an addon in both and got the same result....

Re: Help! Addon folder Issues
Usually the installationpath for the folder is:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\addon
For Win7-Users it can also be found here sometimes:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\Addon
Nevertheless i assume that you can't create a new folder in the system directory because you don't have administrator rights.
Make sure to get admin rights on your computer (maybe try to disable the UAC in the system control settings) or ask s.o. with administrator rights to create this folder for you.

I don't think so since SWBF2 is designed for XP.sokka25 wrote:i'm pertty sure this has administrative roghts but i'm on an xp not windows 7 could that be the problem?
But I don't know then why you can't create a new folder, sry.
