Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Yes, I messed with some file somewhere. But everything in the Ai folder is there, everything in the Pictures/Races/raceblah folders is there. Most importantly, Default_AI_Settings.txt is there. What could cause this?

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Pretty clear error..except for part of the top seems missing. 
One of your AI text files is missing those particular lines..probably because you imported a Classic AI into Gold.

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Negative, I've only played with Gold. I *may* have tossed some TDM AIs in the wrong spot, but I don't think that they would be harming anything -- right? Just grab everything under Pictures/Races and toss it in SE4 folder? What do you mean by the top is missing? I alt-prtscr'd, so it gave me a shot of the active window.

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
When I get that message it tells me what race folder had the problem. Then again my path is a lot shorter.
You might have an old Version of TDM..what Version are you using?

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Do you have the 1.84 patch installed?
The error message should include more subfolders than that. I have never seen it not show the race folder. You might want to consider reinstalling SE4 into a folder such as: C:\Games\SE4 or something short, so it won't want to cut off subfolder names.  |

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Yes, it is 100% sure indication you have a non-Gold AI. Check them out !

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
TDM-ModPack 3.30 (Gold Version)
As for the AIs...bah!  That message comes up a dozen times, probably the same number of AI players. I'm going to reinstall, since I'm much wiser in the ways of tweaking the game than I was say, 2 weeks ago when I first installed. |

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
No, just one nonGold AI is enough 
When AI setup races, it goes through all race folders for each race it add ! I know, it is hard to explain or understand, but that's how it works. Just add one nonGold race into fully perfect Gold directory and you will see those massages dozen of times.

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Once you find which AI is causing the problem, step-by-step instructions for converting it to Gold are linked in my sig.

Re: Error with AI settings upon starting a new game
Thanks capnq . I'm running off of a clean install right now, and trying to merge TDM+FQM+P&N+bits of EyeCandy. |
