Default Patch 8.0.1. database location

Hi all,

I was unsure if this should go in data issues forum, but it's mostly clogged up with club threads so thought here would be ok. Please feel free to move otherwise.

Ok I may be being completely dense here, but after installing the new patch I wish to update the fake.inc file and add a retain_players.edt file so that I can have real competition names and keep certain nations in; easilly enough done you might ask? No.

I can't find the new 8.0.1. database anywhere! It's there, it's installed, but not in the C:/Program Files/Sports Interactive/FM2008 folder and it is not in the My Documents folder either? Where the heck is it? I know I may come across as dense here but really looking forward to playing the game but unfortunently cannot.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Cheers.

After you install the final patch (The 105MB one) it will be located here:

CProgram Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\data\updates\update-801\db\801
