post. It already is in /usr/share/games/

So u mean I should remove all data that is normally included in legends?
(file:///usr/share/games/legends/legends/data.unf
file:///usr/share/games/legends/legends/interiors.unf
file:///usr/share/games/legends/legends/missions.unf
file:///usr/share/games/legends/legends/scripts.unf
file:///usr/share/games/legends/legends/sounds.unf
file:///usr/share/games/legends/legends/voices.unf)
For users with slow internet connection that would be quite bad...
