I recieve those messages as well. However, it does not affect you unless you have either of these files:

US.TXT
JAPAN.TXT, or
DUTCH.TXT

If you use something else, like ENGLISH.TXT, then don't worry about it.

You need to Edit your Script.BAT file as follows:

script script.txt
copy script.dat ..
copy english.dat ..
del script.dat
del english.dat
del strings.h

Now go into your Script.TXT file and paste this over the "languages" section:

File= 0,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 1,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 2,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 3,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 4,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 5,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 6,ENGLISH.TXT
File= 7,ENGLISH.TXT

This should fix all your problems.

Essentially, you need to remove \ every time it appears at the end of a script line in any TR .BAT file. This applies to the Logo.BAT file as well. Core left this on (I don't know how, since if it were on their programs they wouldn't work, and we know they did), so you have to take it off. Don't remove it from the middle of a line, though (i.e., Logo.BAT).

Are you using 'Easylife'?
Have you installed the Level Editor on the C: drive at the default setting?

Also, you could edit all the other langauge files using the resorces of the internet and then reconfigure the 'Easylife' batchfile to do these as well, otherwise just ignore them.

------------------

'ZING' is not a word that I am familiar with, however I will make an exception to 'YOINK'.

are you talking about the objects names that are displayed in the LE and TRWest (those you can't change as far as I know) or the puzzle items names (those you can rename by editing the script.txt file)

I edit Puzzle item name and now (how I made the edit which you tell me TRoosevelt_26) says me:

Error: "The Hand of Orion" not found in strings

C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script>copy script.dat ..
Copy 1 file(s)

C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script>copy english.dat ..
Copy 0 file(s)

C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script>del script.dat

C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script>del english.dat
File not found

C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script>del strings.h
File not found

(I translated "Copy x file(s)" and "File not found" becuse they were written in greek)

when renaming puzzle items in script.txt you ALSO have to rename them (exactly) in English.txt

I edit the english.txt.

I have a question: Why it says "C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script>copy script.dat ..
Copy 1 file(s)"? In the Script folder there isn't script.dat - there is only script.exe.

I don't want to be annoying, or anything - but have you tried my program? I wrote it for these kind of problems, and I don't think many people have really recognized it. If you haven't, please give it a go:
TRLE FAQ and Community
It's called Script Editing Studio. There are three files to download, to install, place all three in a folder and run setup.exe.

Thanks,

I can't download Setup.lst file. Explorer opens it - don't downloads it. Can you send it to me via e-mail? It seems to be very good program. Thanks.

I have updated it and yahoo won't let me upload again... I am looking for a better host that won't corrupt the program:
007335.html

Excite limits my email capabilities, so I can only make one large email to the new host. I will post again when I have a functioning download.

I don't want you to send me all the program. I only need the .lst file which is 4kb. It's the only file how I can't download. When I try to run setup says me: "Setup cannot find 'C:\PROGRAM FILES\CORE DESIGN\TRLE\TOOLS\SCRIPT EDITING STUDIO\SETUP.LST'. Setup is aborting..."

There are a lot of free space sites which you can upload. Some of them: www.tripod.com www.homestead.com www.spacepages.com www.fortunecity.com www.50megs.com

Thanks - I am currently uploading the files to 50 megs.

Gah! 50megs does not support uploads of .exe files! It did not even let me upload the lst file. I'll try another one...

Ok, spacepages does not permit lst files either. Tripod and homestead I already tried. GRR! This is why I wanted a host here.
