AI Settings Errors: F:\space empires iv gold 1.78 \pictures\races\klingon_ai_settings.txt

Any suggestions??

Thanks…Greybeard

This sounds like some files in the wrong place too. Under the \pictures\races folder all you should have is more folders of the race names. It looks like you have klingon_ai_settings.txt under this folder.

Any files in the pictures\races folder and any folders that are not a Races folder should be deleted.

DavidG: Thanks for the suggestions. I removed the data folder and modified the Klingon ai_settings file by copying in the lines that were missing from another race.

Now, everything seems to be working OK.

That set of errors means you've got a set of AI files that were made before Gold.

Instructions for converting AIs are linked in my sig.

Hmm, did you download pictures.zip when we started NGC2? I thought I had fixed the AI files, might have missed some though.
Will send out a question to all players regarding this in next newsflash from the game, if it's a common problem I'll resend all fixed AI files to everyone.

Yes, I downloaded the files from the Newbie Galactic Combat 2 site. I don't know if the Klingon file I had in the races file was from this download or from another, since I cleaned everything up yesterday.

However, now that I know where things belong and how to correct the problem, it won't be a problem again.
