I have reinstalled SEV tree times. If I patch to ver 1.17 all is fine. Once I installed patch ver 1.20 I cannot process e-mail game. Screen turns black when I try to process. Is anyone having this problem or nkow a sulotion?

Are you using a mod? Someone posted a similer issue over at the SE5universe forum. Maybe that was you. If not maybe they've found an answer over there?

There have been changes in MainString.txt too. Any other modders who have adjusted this file will need to do so again.

Have they added a way to start a saved game from the command line yet? Like se4.

java: have you modded your main_strings file?

CaptRR: Yes. Geo uses it for PBW, but the commands aren't common knowledge as far as I know..

Thanks Phoenix...

The problem sounds like its with the main_strings file. If you haven't modded it though, the patch should have updated it if needed..

EDIT: duh. Find the Main_strings in the Balance Mod folder and delete it. that should do it.

Nope... I don't have a Main_strings file in the Balance mod folder...

However I noticed that the new HelpTxt.txt is 3927 lines as opposed to the 3915 in the one of the Balance MOd... apparently that needs to be updated...

sigh.. I guess I'll have to wait for the good ol' Capn to finish his good works....
