This page may require cleanup to meet basic quality standards. The specific problem is: we lack gamefront patch (and extensive instructions to use it) and everything here just refers to GOG.com version (retail is also a thing) . You can help by modifying the article. The discussion page may contain useful suggestions.

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/299050/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (299050) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
