Just to confirm: We want Jengamod2 and not Jenga Fixed?

Ah, crap, I think I uploaded a pretender with wrong mod... Arf...

EDIT: Ah, good thing the name of the game had changed, the pretender didn't go through

And now of to design a pretender with the correct mod

My new computer w/Vista seems to think that there is no such thing as a savedgames folder in the dominions3 folder. If you want, just start the game up without me since its already been delayed enough.

Vista stores the savedgames in a strange place. It stores it in

C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files \dominions\savedgames

You want the "Jenga2.dm" file form the Jenga_mod_fixed.zip download.

I had the same problem a while back. The best solution I've seen is just to re-install the game into a folder not under /program files. The problem seems to be the absolutely outrageous security settings in Vista, which prevent any applications from creating a file under /program files.

So, I just reinstalled the game to C:/ and it worked perfectly.

Thanks SO much ghoul! I doubt I would've found that on my own.

*Never* install games on Vista into C:/Programs folder, even though many games like to suggest that as the default...

Can't find a R'lyeh nation with the new mod (trying a test game). I could be doing something wrong, but they don't show up as a nation for my tests. I turned off all mods, quit, and then restarted. Then turned back on jenga, jenga, Jenga. No R'yleh.

My nation is in. Just worried that this could all fall apart again.

You did turn on the single-age mod too?

It's there. It just lacks the "EA" epiteth (titled 'R'lyeh, time of the Aboleths') and is listed amongst the MA nations due to it's nation number.

Ahh, that's probably it. Thought you had included everything in with the Jenga mod. My bad.
