I am using "Space Empires IV Mod Picker Utility V2.01" which I got with the latest TDM mod. I am running SE4 gold upgraded to v1.78. Is this the latest Version?

The question is on the right hand side, it shows saved games but when I select the saved game on the right (and correct mod on the left) and click on "load saved game" nothing happens. I hear my hard drive spin a little, though. Is this program supposed to load se4 and automatically load the saved game? Currently, I just have it load the correct mod, then once se4 is loaded, I load the saved game.

Also, what is the [none] before my saved game filenames?

Note: this is for single player, I haven't tried playing real humans Online yet.

Thanks.

I have found this also so I highlight the game and then Play it seems the only way I have found to do it

Is it supposed to load the saved game automatically? If it does, maybe there is a command line problem I can fix.

the [none] shows that the savegame was just in the default directory so the mod picker doesn't know what mod to use.
When you create games using mods, set the savegame to <moddirectory>\savegame

Next, in order to load singleplayer games, you need to make sure you enter your playernumber in the box specified (usually 1 for singleplayer games)
Next, your password. If you have not got a password then enter just a single space character in this box.

*Then* click "load savegame".

Dont forget, the savegame will need to be moved to the correct directory to auto-load the correct mod.
