Error! What went wrong? Please help.

Hey I was messing around in the imperial_campaign/descr_stat.txt area and I was editing characters names for the Macedonian Faction and their names.

Then when I tried to go play the imperial campaign to see if my changes went into effect the arrow to go to the new campaign just send me back to the new game part of single player. So I exit the game and a pop-up says:
" data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/descr_stat.txt at line 2247, column 46, could not find next child. Children list must be terminated with an end. "

What do I do?

Well some of the names are involved in the scripting and what-not I believe.

I think DVK or Tone or another of the honorable team members had the same problem
at one point when they added names to a faction or changed them... You have to fix them
in several other areas of the files, as well as whatever you said.

That's at least what I remember from the Team Member's post. Not my knowledge,
seeing as I have as much modding skill as my mother.

Anyways, to remedy this, you will probably have to put them back to what they were.
Or get a reply from a team person who knows what to do...

Sorry for not being able to actually help, but that was all I could do!

There are very good tutorials here:

That can answer your questions. Changing character names is not for the faint-hearted.....it took me a good bit of time to get the hang of it.
