Title: Modding question-THANKS
Post by: cowboy on February 04, 2012, 03:13:17 pm

First off, Magic, thank you SO MUCH for the time and effort you've put into MCO. It's such an awesome improvement to what was already an awesome game. It's made me pick up this game again, and I've gotten countless hours of enjoyment out of it already.

A quick question- I use notepad++ to edit savegames to use pilots across campaigns. To create my own mercenary unit, if you will. I'm having a hard time doing that with MCO though. I was able to do it with the updated MC2, as well as in MCX. When I do it in this game, by adding a purchase file with all my pilots and add it to [additionalpurchasefiles] in my savegame, it crashes.

How can I do that in your version?

Also, any update on moving those campaign files so that they can be downloaded again??

Thanks again.

Nevermind...

I discovered that when I have the game open, edit the purchase file, then reload, it crashes the game due to a memory address error. When I re-open the game, it works fine with my edit.
