ERROR: Failed to open directory: SoldierName/
Make sure you installed OpenXcom correctly.
Check the wiki documentation for more details.

Android users: your data folder is located at:
/storage/emulated/0/OpenXcom/data/
(as reported by your system)

Press any key to continue.

It may help to trace the problem if you post the version of OpenXcom you are using and any mods you have installed.

Examples:
- Milestone V1.0 (32-Bit).
- Nightlies 2018-01-18 (64-Bit.).

Same Problem here. Happend from one day to the other, without changing OpenXcom or one of the saved games or settings folders. It just happens all of a sudden. I tried getting the very latest version from the nightlies a few minutes ago, but the problem remains.

I'm working on Ubuntu 14.04 x64. As the game itself wasn't changed prior to the problem I can only imagine it's something about my system that changed.
