  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>/360430/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (360430) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.

    "You talked about the engine and in this point of view it looks really good, using the same engine as in the second installment? Yes, it's our own engine and is basically the same. Of course, during the development of the game is changing and improving, but we use it only for Mafia III, so we really consider it as our own."
