Understanding Harpoon Classic File Names

An Independent Site Supporting the Harpoon™ Naval Warfare Simulation

SCENARIO FILE NAMES

Each Harpoon Classic Scenario has its own distinctive 8 letter file name followed by a 3 letter extension. The format for all Harpoon Classic Scenario File names is:  ????????.sc?

The .sc? extension tells you which BattleSet to open for a given scenario.

SAVED FILE NAMES

Saved File names follow a similar convention to Scenario File names. Instead of the .sc? extension, saved files use a .hp? extension. Thus, the format for all Saved Files names is: ????????.hp?

The .hp? extension tells you to which BattleSet a given Save File belongs.
