Default P&N on pbw

i installed seiv on this computer, got a copy of P&N for pbw, installed that and i'm getting a 'could not find field "data directory" in record' one error and it's not finding the savegame. it might be a problem with the Version on SJ's website, but if so i can't get on pbw web cause my password is *drumroll* on my other computer.

help?

Are you using 2.5 PBW? That is the Version the game is using. Any other Version will not work.

Also, make sure to fix the oversight in that Version that sets the Use Old Log Political Message Display setting in Settings.txt to TRUE, thus preventing you from scrolling the Messages. Make it FALSE.

What do you mean tweaked or non-tweaked? It is using the PBW Version...

his website lists 2.5 tweaked and 2.5 untweaked for pbw. and a 2.6, but i'm pretty sure we're using 2.5.

I am not sure what the tweaked and untweaked are, but just try each of them and see what works.

none of the 2.5 worked. all of them gave the same error and didn't see the save game.

Narf, are you trying to play with Gold or 1.49? The game is using 1.49, NOT Gold.
