Default Re: Modding AI Research

I had something like that.

If you are using windows Notepad to edit text files, then you have the same problem I had.

Solution:

1) Hold "shift" & rightclick any text file.
2) Choose "open with..." from the menu that appears.
3) Select "WordPad" instead of "NotePad", and check the "Always use this program" option.
4) Press OK.

You will never have the out-of-memory problem again. If you try to open something like "components.txt" notepad complains that it is too big, and then loads wordpad instead. This solution skips that step, and prevents probems with notepad choking (since you aren't using it anymore )
