According to manual compiling estab ends in saving the file. It quickly got to the Import Complete. After 24 hours nothing else was added. There was one error that seemed of no consequence. (It is an untouched copy of the BFTB estab. The new filename is BFTBKOADEstab)

The messages were

Upon further reading I see that the missing image 3391 was enough abort the save. It was for the Humber MKIV AC. I just copied and renamed file for the Humber MkII AC image. Odd thing is that this was an exact copy of the BFTB estab and image folder. Did not tinker with anything.

BTW am now wondering what the estab manager is for. Seems like it isn't needed for anything.

Now on to next error.

The EstabManager app compiles the estab xml file into the binary file that is used by the game. It is called in the background by the EstabEditor app.
