I’m trying to use templates I downloaded from " [http://stonehearthbuilds.net16.net/](http://stonehearthbuilds.net16.net/) " but within steam/steamapps/common/Stonehearth there is no “saved\_objects\stonehearth\building\_templates” Am I just doing something wrong, or is this an error with my game? Running release-610(64x)

Well that is a problem. Luckily I think i know the solution.

Open up your steam launcher, go to your library and right click on stonehearth. Go to the bottom and click properties. Then go to the local files tab, and click “Verify Integrity of game cache”. This should go through and ad any files/folders you are missing from the base game.

I have the folder, i think the folder is creating, when you the first template save.

No, the folder should be there when you first download the game, because that’s where the included Ascendancy and Rayya’s Children templates are stored.

**Edit:** Ignore this post and look at Brunos

Hi, on this last version the folder changed a bit.  
The game actually starts **without** the folder. The game will only create it after you created your first template.  
But you can “cheat” and manually create it yourself. There is no harm in doing it and will work fine.

Also:[quote=“thelegorebel, post:4, topic:24461”]

Not anymore. They now are store within their mods. The “saved\_objects\stonehearth\building\_templates” are now only for player-made builds. 🙂
