Help with finding SRB2 folder

[OilDrum]

I'm trying to find the folder that addons is in so I can put mods in there. I couldn't find the folder, so I deleted the game so I could use the installer again and put it in a place I could find it. But in the Installer where it asks me what folder it should be put into, it only shows the System Drive and the Disk.

I'm really not tech-savvy or anything and I'm really confused as to what I could type down in order to be able to save everything in a place I can find it.

Neither installer nor game creates an Addons folder. You have to do that yourself (and it should be in the same folder as the game!).
What the game does create is a DOWNLOADS folder in the same folder the game was installed in. The game will place in there every mod it downloads from servers you join.

Since you're reinstalling the game, consider installing the game somewhere recognizable.
An idea is to install it in C:/Games/SRB2 so you always know it must be under an appropiately named folder.
Some would recommend installing the game in the Documents folder, but I don't

If you have multiple hard drives, it doesn't necessarily need to be in the C drive. For example, I generally prefer not cluttering up the same hard drive as my OS with tons of other software when I don't need to, so I install all my games onto other hard drives. This is however simply a matter of personal preference, and downloading games onto the C drive won't hurt anything, usually. As long as you are being careful not to download anything from suspicious sites that might be distributing viruses/malware.

Once you do decide what hard drive to install onto, I'd recommend making a folder titled "SRB2" like Rapid said on the hard drive of your choice, and placing the installer into that. This way, you can easily find the directory again if you need to. Then simply run the installer to install the game. It's been a while so I don't remember if the installer asks you what directory to install the game into, but if it does simply direct it to the SRB2 folder you just created and allow it to unpack the game files.

Once this is done you can either download addons into this same folder, or create a new addons folder yourself to prevent the main directory from getting cluttered. It's up to you. If you are loading addons via a launcher a community member made for the game, you can even go so far as to make multiple more folders inside the addons folder to group addons by type, such as "Characters", "Single Player Stages", "Multiplayer Stages", etc. to make things even more organized. Then simply point the launcher to the addons you want to load, and it will handle the rest while booting up the game.

Press enter to load the mod and then go to no save (if it is a char mod) and enjoy

Thank you! The mod is there! I can't figure out how to play with it though.

How do i exactly name the folder for the game to recognize it?
