PFM 3.0 Im extracting files But where are they going??

So I'm trying to make some new units in PFM and you are supposed Extract Some stuff then add them to your mod.

Where am I Extracting them to???

I'm given no option to set their destination. So I can't actually find where they are so I cant actually put them in my mod.

Does anyone know where they go by default or how To set up a folder to extract things too?

It is odd, when I first start using a PFM version I get the option of where to extract. However, eventually it defaults to a directory (I am assuming it is when I have picked a certain directory repeatedly?).

Look in the folders you have regularly used, try to find any folders called db.

Before you do anything, create a MyMod (File->MyMod->New).
It will ask you for a name of the new mod you're working on and a working directory for it.
That's where all your extraction will go and your adding will start from.

Not working with the MyMod feature is pretty much stupid if you're doing anything beyond the most trivial of editing.

Yeah lol. Steps I was following told me to extract files before you make a mod using mymod. I kept reading over the full instructions fully again today and thought that looked illogical.

Thanks anyway.
