Mikan Cyclone Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 One thing of notice: Make sure any files put into the XML folder are in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS. Hope this helps! IT DOESN'T MATTER! my files aren't in caps and they work perfectly. Did you just drop the XML's in the data folder, or did you put them in the XML folder? 'Cause they won't work if you just drop them into the Data folder. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a245/loverdog/pffuserbar1.jpghttp://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i276/At-At_controller/leetspeak4cz1jr.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxpublic Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 anyone? can anyone help? ??? What everyone else is saying. Make a folder in /data called /xml (i.e., it's /data/xml). This folder doesn't exist when you install the game so you have to make it yourself. After you make the folder put your xml files in it; DO NOT put them in the /data folder. So if you've changed specialstructures.xml, the path to your changed xml file will be: /data/xml/specialstructures.xml. Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortune faded13 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 ive done that. i put the stuff into the xml folder. something crossed my mind, i had the demo a while ago. and i used the same way to mod that and it worked fine, im using the same Game Data folder ii used for the demo. am i supposed to have a different game data folder after installing the actual game?
