well, thanks in advance!
oh, and i just read the thread here http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,39708.0.html
it mentions the error there, but i have not modified the location where the executable is, i am using the default location

Well, it's a parsing error, nothing serious.
Have you applied the 3.3a patch ? If yes, what build are you using ?
Might be an older build, while you're trying to use the newer table with turret angle setups.

i have tried it both with and without the 3.3a patch, and downloaded all the files today.
as i have said, i left the settings to the default build on both attempts
-
Have you re-read step 5 on the page you linked to? I suspect that is your problem. You're using a build from this year but the tables are only compatible with the builds from last year.
Step 5 on that page explains what's going on in a bit more detail as well as explaining what you can do about it.

ok yeah, your right, changing the build did fix my problem
you really should explain all this on the downloads page heh, would make peoples life a whole lot simpler....
