Anyone know where Sins games are saved on Windows Vista? They are not in the location given in the manual or readme file.

Thanks, but the files are not there - this is the address in the manual and readme file - there is no such directory as AppData or Ironclad Games

Groupy 2 - Organize multiple applications into grouped tabs on your Windows desktop

The folders aren't created until after you have run the game at least once.

edit: nevermind AppData is a hidden folder. You won't see it unless you are showing hidden folders.

Goto your user folder. Click the little arrow by Organize and then on Folder and Search Options. On the view tab is a pair of radio buttons indicating Showing and Not Showing Hidden Files and Folders. Select the one that says "Show hidden files and folders". Click OK. And then you should see it.
