I'm confused. What are you using to edit the files? According to what I'm using I HAVE removed anything past the first two entries. I use notepad or notepad++. Does it not show correctly using those? What are you using to view the files? According to what I'm seeing in the biases file there is nothing past the first two entries and the row is the correct length as well. You need to be more specific please about how your getting your information.

I think she means in the top name row.

'#, Name, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21

Not the others. You should have removed everything past two on this row as well.

I assumed it was a comment cause of the ' in front of the line and thus was not read. What about the description lines above as well, do I remove those? This wasn't described very well in the modding document if that's the case. Not to mention the implications of all those lines used that way in the race files. Thank you thought for the info, just trying to understand the disconnect.

I'm still getting the error after trimming down that line, which leads me to believe its in the race files where the problem lies.

Sorry the guy up stairs distracted me last night, Going to go figure it out right now, sorry about that. But also got some programing to do. Might do that and run it through my program, might be easier than reading each line and checking if the info is valid. The joys of languages, even though this language is very simplistic.

First glace errors, try this, Contekka, is missing values, so add values to WeaponResearchProject, EnergyResearchProject, HighTechProjectOrder,DissallowedCompeponentIds these errors is also made in Rogene txt file. I corrected them and it loaded for me. If no value remove all text relating to it. It is expecting a value and no value is present. Now off to continue writing a program.

What changes did you make to the raceBiasas file? Adjusting the Contekka and Rogene file settings didn't have an effect, still getting the error as before. As a side note I also corrected my miss use of "-" and "+" in the Bonus Abilities section of those files. Though it seamed to parse them out just fine. Thanks for the help btw.
