-The particle editor is giving me problems I need help to get it working again, I already put all the necessary files where they belong, but all of the sudden it says it cannot read the common and core files! What do I do to get it to work properly so I can continue in my RDD: G map?

-Thank you in advance, alot

-BTW it's never done this to me before....

index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic& ... or&start=0

here's the old topic for the problems. if nothing of it fixes it, tell me and I'll unlock and ressurect it

ok thanks Qdin!

Problem, it still says cannot read core.lvl
Here is a pic, I did everything I'm supposed to do....


-I really appreciate the help...

Keep what you have already done and create another "_LVL_PC" folder in:
BF2_ModTools\data

Then copy the same "CORE.LVL" file to the new "_LVL_PC" folder.

Then go back to data_XX1/_LVL_PC and run the "ParticleEditor.exe" and then it should definitly work.

Now it still says it cannot read the common.lvl, and it doesn't say anything about the core.lvl, but PE still crashes, saying if I want to report it to Microsoft...

yeah - like they'll fix it for us!

and just to make sure: you DID browse both pages and tried all the stuffs we did, right?

Yeah try everything, i think some ways work for some and not others.
Still, keep what you've done already and create another "Munged" folder in:
BF2_ModTools\data\_LVL_PC
Then go back to:
data_XX1\_LVL_PC
and run the "ParticleEditor.exe" and see if it still crashes
or try to run it from:
BF2_ModTools\ToolsFL\bin.
I can run mine from either inside data_ABC/_LVL_PC or BF2_ModTools\ToolsFL\bin

It still says errors.., why does it do this now? It never did before...

you didn't answer my question: did you look at BOTH the pages in the topic and tried ALL the stuffs?

yes I did try out all the *stuff*, none of it seems to get it to work....

hmm...

what about any drivers?

?What are you talking about drivers for?

I need help from anyone who can help, please

Dude - would you stop that..?

and I meant drivers as if whether yo uhave updated the drivers for your graphic-card lately. That COULD cause the problem if I'm not mistaken.

tried reinstalling the ModTools?

Yes I've reinstalled the modtools numerous times, and what do you mean by "stop that", I was curious if anyone else has had this identical problem , I'll see if I need to update my video driver though, I thought it was pretty recent....

you questioned my ability to help you out since you "woul like to hear something from someone who CAN help"

for not to mention you DID doublepost on the same day and the 2nd post was just a 'ressurection' (or at least some try on ressurecting it so people gets aware of it)

I didn't mean like that Qdin... I appreciate your help, but I was curious if anyone else knew anything, you seem to be helpfull all the time, I appreciate that I don't want to sound rude...or mean.. or whatever.......sorry

Do I need to install it into the *default* disk location?

sure - why not?

try it and tell us if it worked
