Steel fury editor issues

Hey everybody,

I'm whukid, and im fairly new to modding. I recently purchased Steel Fury and downloaded some mods for it (Tiger 1.0, Steel Panzer 1.5, the Prokovaka one, PzVI Tiger Epack, Armor thinckness fix, Frontline acoustics, and the SPM 1.5 english patch). I have two major questions;

1. HOW do you get to the editor?!?!?!

2.How do you save the changes to the scripts? like for example, you need to add two lines to the prokovaka mod to get it to run. everytime I try to save, i get a message saying "Access Denied" even though im the administrator on my computer.

PS, if anyone could tell me where to buy a version of T34 vs Tiger, id greatly appreciate it.

thanks

Thank you ZeeWolf! I understand you have a mod or two out for t34 vs Tiger? I'd really like to try it, but i cant find a copy thats at a reasonable price ( $100?! really?! ) Oh well. Do you have any suggestions for my "Access denied" issue? I cant figure it at all

Is the game installed to the 'Programs' folder? I understand that can cause some access issues,

About the Mission Editor, it looks like it doesn't appear in the download version of Steel Fury. But never fear, you can create a shortcut to get it:



Pay attention to these entries:

Target = "<Steel Fury Game Folder>\bin\rel\shell.exe" root\programs\misedit.program

Don't leave out the "quotes"!

Start in = <Steel Fury Game Folder>

Good luck!

So what do I do since its in programs? do i move it to another folder or do i have to reinstall it?

I'm working on the second part, but windows 7 isn't helping much

Reinstalling sounds like the easiest option, at this point,

I mean, the security settings in Windows 7 seem to be a major pain in the butt:

Or you can do like me .When I made copies of my main game I lost the editor.I asked Iceman one the game moderators on the Graviteam forum and he explanie nd the steps, create text files for each of the 4 functions and then turning them into bat or exe files.I did and now I have MEs in all my copies.I cannot, unfortunately, find my post.

Kyth any idea where it is in the forum?

Worse comes to worse I can email you copies of my bat files and all you do is paste them into your game main folder and they become instantly active.

One thing I remember.In your user-made misisons menu you have 18 titles, all pertaining to the game´s 18 stock maps.I think all you have to do is click on one them as if to play it.Inside there´s a lone T 34 tank.Once you´ve played one of the maps the ME is supposed to be generated automatically in your game main folder.Ain´t sure though....

Cheers

I think the Graviteam admin trimmed all the posts in the 'FAQ' thread; all the useful information's gone,

Thanks Kyth! I didnt know you had to edit the property settings at all

Hello Frinik, do you think you can email those to me by any chance? I got to the mission editor, but I believe i messed up somewhere along the way because its using some weird characters instead of letters.
my email address is thewhukid@gmail.com

Thanks for all your help guys; i just bought a new computer a few months ago after upgrading from window xp. I'm still adjusting to the "user-friendly" windows 7..

thanks

HI Whukid, I just emailed your 4 mission editor bat files as well as the 4 text files that you may need to create bat files on the odd chance mine don´t work.

Let me know how it goes!

Cheers

I dont think so :/ Its okay though, because I re-installed Steel Fury and pulled the mission editor out of it. Now it works fine, and in English!

I edited a few missions and these are the screenies!
