    Default Editing the Mod

    Hi,

    I have a problem and I wonder if anyone can help me with it. I've been trying a bit of self modding lately but whenever I edit the data files I'm always prevented from saving my edits. For example, this morning I went into the descr_names file in order to add a few new names into the game, but when trying to save my work after the editing I was presented with this message:

    'Cannot create the C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\SicilianVespers\packs\data\descr_names.txt file.'

    Make sure that the path and file name are correct.


    No matter what I try I always get this message and are prevented from saving my edits. Does anyone have any ideas on way this is happening and how I can get round it?

    Perhaps a question of your rights on this pc-system (Vista etc. admin things). You could also check out the properties of the concerning files (ie. read-only ?), while the files come as modfiles open to edit.

    Rightwingers, like in the past the epitome of incompetence, except for evilness where they own the mastership.

    Any chance for this exam? Very low, because the established Anthropocentrism destroys the basis of existence.
