3rd party program request
OK on the subject of loading races and getting errors...
I started to keep a list of all the ones that needed fixing as I came across them but it got insane. I thought a small program could be written to search/fix what was needed. Then I realized that the errors were repeating, and at the same time realized that I only saw the errors when a race was selected for use in a game I was playing so finding them all would involve alot of test games.
SO... this is what Im thinking..
someone could load a fresh clean install of SEIV Gold from disc into a different directory than they play from. Load tons of races. Get example errors. And write a program to search/fix with default settings.
Preferably something that can run in default windows otherwise I could offer it as a BASIC program that requires downloading/installing something like YABasic to run it. I could also EXE such a program. If someone wants to code something like that in any language (psuedo code, perl, C, java) it would be a starting point.
