    This is why you keep backups of the files so that you can easily replace them if you fuxx0r it up :D

    Re-install if you don't have copies of the original files sitting around.

    and when u upgrade from the initial release version to 1074, ur old savegames will not be affected by some of the changes, does this apply to my case?

    wouldn't you have to manually delete the above mentioned messed with .mes files and then reinstall I mean don't the ones in the rules folder (or mes folder as the case may be) override the ones already in the dat file

    Did you manually edit the file?

    If so double check the item numbers you added for typos (or start fresh and copy paste item numbers)

    Also I think that some items are not available for sale and if you try to add them into invensource.mes it will cause no items to be available.

    Another solution (perhaps simplest) would be to download the premade invensource.mes from ta downloads and use it instead It gives a hell of a lot of items after one sleep.


    Hope something here helps :cool:_
