This section of the manual covers usage of files and directories by the OpenCS. Files and directories are file system concepts, This section of the manual describes the directories and file types used by OpenCS. A file is a resource for storing data, identified by its
and you are probably already familiar with it. We won't try to explain this concepts, we will just focus on \OCS. filename extension (e.g. .exe, .jpg, .txt), whereas a directory is a folder or file system structure in which these files are stored. You
are most likely already familiar with these concepts.

OpenMW and \OCS{} uses multiple directories on file systems. First of, there is a \textbf{user directory} that holds configuration OpenMW and \OCS{} store their files in multiple directories. Firstly, there is the \textbf{user directory} that holds configuration

In addition to this single hard coded directory, both \OMW{} and \OCS{} need a~place to seek for actual data files of the game: In addition to the user directory, both \OMW{} and \OCS{} need a place to store the games actual data files: for example, the
textures, models, sounds and files that store records of objects in game; dialogues and so one -- so called content files. We support textures, models, sounds and records of in-game objects. We support multiple paths to these files (termed \textbf{data paths}),
multiple such paths (we call it \textbf{data paths}) as specified in the configuration. Usually one data path points to the directory as specified in the configuration. Usually, one data path points to the directory where \MW{} is installed, however, you are
where original \MW{} is either installed or unpacked. You are free to specify as many data paths as you would like, free to specify as many data paths as you would like. In addition, one particular data path, as described below, is used to store
