OOTP 22 Hint file

Coxmeatsandwich · 10-02-2023, 04:10 PM

Hey, I'm just now converting my game from ootp 18 to ootp 22. I've had some issues in the past, but after trying for like the 5th time it seems my league is good to go. My only issue is that I can't seem to locate any misc file in the ootp 22 folder. When I go into the OOTP 22 folder all I see is two folders that say "saved_games" and "temp"

Where do I locate the hints file for OOTP 22? I like to change them to facts about my league and storylines. I'll attach screenshots to hopefully make it clear. Any help will be appreciated! thanks!

Disregard, I found them in the steam files.

This was one of the first “custom” things I learned to do with my OOTP files, and I have developed a bunch of personalized “hints” [funny name for it] over the years, copying and pasting to each new game folder. I’ve never understood if the rotation of these comments is purely random, or if there is some hierarchical sequence. When installing a patch, I always get the favorable Henry/Baldelli accolades for the game, LOL.
