How do I look at my saved pretenders, or rather what program can I open a .newlords file with and not have it display as garbage?


Thanks,

Rabe

Evil Dave's catgod program (http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=41029) is for that.

Thanks! looks perfect, but I can't quite get it to work... keep getting this error message... there isn't anything but pretenders in the relevant file... thoughts?

catgod *.2h run from a command line, in the newlords directory will solve it for you, on a pc.

well, I did as chris suggested and it clearly did *something* but it was WAY too quick to read and didn't dump the output anywhere I could find... should I keep messing with the GUI version in the hope of making that work, or am I missing an obvious tweak?


Thanks,

Rabe

nvm I figured it out... folding@home in console mode was making everything FUBAR works great now.

catgod *.2h |more

works better.
