Still can't find your Mission Folder ?

Run the Game, Select "Mission Editor" then select "Desert Island"

Place a Unit on the map, then save the mission as

WRAITH517

Then search your PC for  WRAITH517.intro

========================================================================================

NOTE:
IF YOU'RE RUNNING AN ACTUAL 32BIT VERSION OF WINDOWS IT'LL JUST BE PROGRAM FILES FOR THE PATH.  IE,  IT WONT HAVE THE (x86) IN THE PATH NAME.

FOR EASE OF USE, I WOULD NAVIGATE UNTIL YOU CAN SEE THE  "missions"  FOLDER
RIGHT CLICK ON IT AND SELECT CREATE A SHORT CUT.
THEN  CUT THAT SHORT CUT AND PASTE IT SOMEWHERE EASIER, SO YOU AN JUST DOUBLE CLICK IT TO ACCESS THAT FOLDER WHEN NEEDED.
