Which folder does this file belong?

Main WITP folder, or the Art folder?

Patched AB's map to 5.1, and it's path states the Art folder.
I don't think that's right. It should be the main folder, right?

It goes in the main witp folder ( the one with the program file).

IIRC, a copy is kept in the ART/Maps directory where the maps are installed from.

Thanks, I thought it went in the main.
AB shows the path to the Art folder.

Where do I show the path to be the ART folder? If there is an error in the docs I need to fix it. The pwhex files should be placed in the "ART\Maps_modified_v5" or "Art\Maps_Modified_v5X" folders for the standard and extended maps respectively.

I think because his install routine accesses it from there and creates a backup of the original.

I have a seperate mod installation and manually extract my files.
This way I can pick and choose out of the zips.
My zip files show the paths to the far right of the file.
Right, it says art/map folder, which I don't have.
The pwhex file goes into the main folder on my installation.

I don't have seperate folders for the maps.
I only run one map.
So the maps are located in my Art folder.

The reason I do it this way, without folders being created, is this.
I've found that extracting zip files, with create folder, will duplicate already existing folders at times.
