His issue was that he didn't know you have to extract the data folder from the mpq file. I sort of explained it and he basically said that's too much work.

| Post subject: | Question about testing with d2se /data folder |
Hi, im trying to test some char / build wit a hero editor. i use to try it using non d2se install. so i was editing me -txt -direct and patching the data folder wit the cubemain purerage edited. but now on 1.6c im using D2SE i tryed a few things to patch the cubemain and i juts cant find how to make it work. 1st i have no data folder in d2se MODS hu folder. 2nd i tryed an old data folder that i patched there and its not working anyway. so if some1 could tell me how to make a diff cubemain then the 1 that the patch.mpq is using will be awesome and very help full! tyvm! |

It's hard to tell exactly what's going wrong for you, but here are some basic things to confirm: 1) Have you edited the D2SE_SETUP.INI file in the mod's root folder so that D2SE knows that mod is moddable? If not, then you're basically starting the mod without "-direct -txt" so D2SE will ignore any data folder present. 2) Did you decompress the patchD2.mpq file for the version that you are trying to mod? When decompressed, it produces the data folder that your changes belong in. 3) When editing one of the .txt files, are you making sure the editing program is saving the file as a simple tab-delimited csv file (albeit one that ends in .txt rather than .csv)? Some programs might default to saving it with some stuff like surrounding words with quotes. If you're sure you've got all of that covered, then give some more detail about your test, what you expected to happen, and what actually happened. |

Just create a folder, it can be empty except for your file. Create new folder in your HU folder > name it data Create folder inside data folder > name it global Create folder inside global folder > name it excel Place cubemain.txt in the excel folder. To disable the edit and switch back to 1.6 recipes, just turn off the -direct and -txt switch in D2SE. |
