data directory

The Nexuiz 'data' directory is the folder that holds all the files for the game. Any maps or otherwise packages you download should usually placed here. All screenshots, videos or otherwise data you generate in game are also usually stored here.

On Windows, the data directory directory is “<folder you extracted it to>\Nexuiz\data”.

On OSX/Linux the data directory is “.nexuiz/data” which will share the files globally with any version of Nexuiz, or “<folder you extracted it to>/Nexuiz/data” for a single version.

Packages inside the data folder will load in alphabetically order. Any package coming after another will override previously loaded files. Unpackaged files will override packaged files. “Nexuiz/data” files will override “.nexuiz/data” files (please check).
