Title: fs2_open.log locations for Linux / Mac
Post by: niffiwan on August 25, 2011, 06:00:13 am

Would it be possible to update this post (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=56279.msg1180359#msg1180359) to include the locations that Linux / Mac put their fs2_open.log files into? I've noticed a few people not finding the log the 1st time around, including myself!

i.e.

Mac: ~/Library/FS2_Open/data (I got this from this post (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=77994.msg1542906#msg1542906))
Linux: ~/.fs2_open/data

This could be put just after section titled "NOTE FOR PEOPLE USING WINDOWS VISTA OR 7:"?

Thanks

It's also worth noting that on Mac OS X Lion (the latest version), the ~/Library folder is now hidden in Finder. There are a bunch of ways to reach it (http://www.macworld.com/article/161156/2011/07/view_library_folder_in_lion.html); the first two (under the header "Ways to view it occasionally") are probably the most straightforward ones.
