The slot configurations don't specify what picture to use. You have to press Background->Load (CTRL-B), and pick a portrait to use on your own.

For the StoreModder, you should load your components file and your main_shops.txt in order to have something to work with

Did you happen to accidentally open the wrong file before that, or did you have the file open in notepad or word?

When you load the stores file, the listbox below that button will fill in with all the different spaceports found in the file.
Click one, and the categories list will fill in.
Click one of the categories, and then press load.

Nope. I also tried importing the saved file, and immediately got the same error.

Have you tried the new Version?

The one posted below is the only one I know of. The EXE is dated 9/8 and is 3082752 bytes.

It does not allow me to save, only to export. When I try to save, it says "File cannot be read. Check that you have permssion to read and write to the file and folder, or try Exporting to create a new file."

I have permission. I am the administrator, running XP Pro.
