Script edit problem.

#1 Post by ginanubismon »

Okay, here's the problem:

Each time I try to open the "edit script" icon for a new game nothing happens even though the thing says it "launched" the editor with two script files, I do not understand what is going on here.

The platform I use is Windows 98, if that helps.

It's quite possible that the text editor may no longer be supported on Windows 98. When you change into the editor/ directory and run scite.exe , what happens?

I've got the same problem....the actual editor works, but when I try to open the "edit script" option it says "launched editor with 2 script files" or something like that, but the editor never comes up with those "2 script files", the editor just doesn't come on at all.
But when I go to the directory and open up scite.exe, the blank script editor shows.

No, this is on Windows ME.

I'm on Ubuntu, and this is also the problem.
