Anyone else not able to find their exported norns on their hard drive? I export mine and then I can't find them except when I go to import them again.

Have you checked both the Program Files\GoG\ etc directory and the My Documents\Creatures directories?

Yep. Nothing there. I'm using Windows 7 if that means anything.

As a future tip, I export my Norns to the Desktop, because that way they're easier to find. :)

Maybe check the directory under C:/User/[your account]/AppData/Local/VirtualStore, if that directory exists?

This is one problem shared by Windows 7 and Vista, if User Account Control is turned on and you don't run a game in administrator mode, it may "hide" saved files in the VirtualStore path. Which is fine for saved games and such, but a pain when you want to access the files outside of the game.

Excellent! Thank you! I ended up doing exactly what Laura recommended and that did the trick! I guess you're right about hidden files Ghosthande, although I don't know why it wouldn't be in admin mode. Oh well, problem solved for all intents and purposes...

<3 Thank you! You guys rock!
