Astakhov Oleg Member Posts: 91 From:Riga, Latvia Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 01-25-2001 11:59 AM Hi! I have the following problem: Once you've installed the TRLE you can play the original Playable Tutorial Level. In the beginning you can see a string "The year 2000, somewhere in Egypt". The point is that I want a string like that to appear in another level, e.g. The Tomb of Seth. I do the following: In the script.txt file I add a command "Legend=" and give it a name "Checking". Then I save this file. Now, if I run script.bat file a message occurs - Error: "Checking" not found in strings. (Though I didn't have this problem a day ago at all). OK. I open english.txt file, go to [Strings] line and add a new line "Checking". Then I save this file and run script.bat again. Everything seems to be fine for now but when the game loads all the titles (string) have only one symbol, for example: Instead of New Game - g , Load game - o, Options - d and so on with ALL strings. What should I do? Thank You in advance ! Sincereally yours, Tomber !!! ------------------ Oleg IP: Logged

I had this same problem my first time. ------------------ Never give-up! unless the situation is hopeless:) The only thing certain in life is uncertainty! IP: Logged

You must overwrite one of the existing messages, 'Cambodia 1984' for example. Otherwise you'll get the messed up title screen. Hope this helps. Cheers, Opdam IP: Logged
Astakhov Oleg Member Posts: 91 From:Riga, Latvia Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 01-26-2001 11:14 PM Thanx! I've just got it. But it's not necessary to overwrite those two lines exactly, I can replace any line in english.txt (except lines for Playstation or what's there - whatever). P.S. I didn't have to replace any lines in english.txt file a few days ago at all but still everything worked !!! ------------------ Oleg IP: Logged
