PROBLEM

[Nakharar]

I added a new faction symbol to England by replacing everything saying England in the Menu files(all the symbol like 80 24 and 50 ) and in the Southern European stratpage 2 England with the new symbol. Then when i run my mod folder(the one you download which it gives you setup Alpacas one) it gets a unspecified error and crashes, the system Log is really long and the final few lines dont reflect whats happened.

Also it says MTW2 has suffered a fatal error and will now close thats worrying

can you post the last couple of lines of the error log ?

[Gigantus]

If you have just changed the graphics and left the original file names then you shouldn't have a crash. Possibly some other error crept in.

Thats what i thought

[Gigantus]

What happened to the data\text folder?

[The Count(er)]

he probably deleted them because they were cluttering up the text folder which shouldn't be a problem so long as he didn't get rid of any files he's modified

[Gigantus]

I am seriously wondering if he deleted the pack folder.

[The Count(er)]

well that would be bad and require a full reinstall of the game

[Nakharar]

No i havent deleted the packs folder for original MTW2 it works fine, folder in main directory

You might have set up the mod folder in a wrong way. Back up your changes and set up your mod folder up again. Or try my set up:
