Modders: Text File Editor

Well which data files are you referring too? (if you mean like empiretypes.txt and such, those are formated completly differently then others, so we'll need different load routines).

Ok some of the cancel's will give you errors, but the program should still run fine

hehe

I didn't have any particular file in mind, I just noticed that your website listed fewer data files than actually exist.

The editor is a lot more efficient than using wordpad or some other program. Thank you for the effort.

Yeah just to clarify, all the data files not listed, are generally ones that just list names (ship names, emperor names, empire types, etc).

We haven't even looked at the AI files yet, so I don't know what those are like

Well I have made the effort to set up an account on this UBB. I don't play SE IV myself but I am in fact the person working with SirDarwin developing the editor. Hope everyone is enjoying it. We have fixed the known current bugs and tonight I will update the file on the site for everyone to download.

The Item Numbers still don't work. I havent taken the time to find an efficeint method that works well yet. Maybe tonight.

If anyone thinks of any new options they would like to see please post them.

I am going to start a new thred so that its closer to the top and seen by more. This message will be posted in it as well.

Well, it seems a new post moves the thred to the top. Hrmph, oh well. Choose which ever one to post in. Probably best to keep all Posts in the same one.
