The problem is that you are using a savegame in the default savegame folder but a mod in another directory, try to locate the mod directory by using the "BROWSE" button beside the mod text box in the favorite window, that should work, I belive.

I'd venture a guess and say Bearclaw has been using RTC prior to this. Since RTC doesn't actually support mods the workaround is to to use the default savegame folder and modify the path.txt manually or by using the mod picker before you start the game in RTC. If the Companion gets off the ground those of us that use RTC now could go back to using savegame folders in the mod folders like Se4 is designed to work.

Next Version will have support for both ways, but it'll take some time before I release that as the deadline scanning required major rework of the code, gotta think ahead in the future.
But it means it'll be a better program in next Version, and somewhat different, still the same features but easier to use I hope.

Right now, all ver 0.8 does is to scan PBW, grab all games, turn status, deadline, news date and news text, turn type and turnlengths (in hours), players left to upload, PBW identity, game name and short file name, turnnumber. Saves all data and compare with internal database.
No GUI sofar, doing it the other way around this time, functions first and UI later.
Cutting code from v 0.76 and pasting it into 0.8 and improving it and streamlining it.
Making error handling, debug functions and log from beginning.

This is what i'm thinking right now:

I hope to make the UI more like the modpicker, but different(!), it won't look like 0.76 anyway.
It will hopefully not force you to open the event editor to autorun turns, the event editor will be an option like the rest of the external autostart options;
-Event editor.
-Music List play.
-Sidenotes.
-External File/App.

Favorites will disappear and those settings will merge into one screen with settings and PBW settings, but sectionalized. (Current Favorite settings will be settable for each game individual, so no Favorites are needed).
There will be something similar though, an easy way to pick a game and player with minimum (1-2) clicks.

It'll be easier to pick games, start new games etc.

We'll see what it becomes, but don't expect any new functions, only changes to the existing ones.
I won't delete any functions either though..
