    Red face A CTD! Help me!

    I have edited the Character Traits File and have changed the Export_VnVs to make it have sense. I have spent ages changing these files! Is there a program I can use to find errors in particular files?

    here is malrubius' trait and ancillary validator: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=55732

    next time remember to make back-ups of the files and only make little changes before testing and if you run into trouble again check the links database for tutorials (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local_links.php?catid=70)

    Angry Re: A CTD! Help me!

    I ain't added new ones or deleted any old ones. I have edited thresholds and eddited/created/deleted effects in the trait section. In trigger section I have eddited/deleted/added traits and have edited points and chances. Are u sure the validator cheked this. I did as the instructions said and I don't know how to find if I have errors from the 3 files that are produced.

    I think the main thing I did when I changed numbers to postive or negative I made it so there was always 2 spaces between the number so negatives will have the wrong amount of spaces or just 1 space so that positive numbers were wrong. Would this tool find it?

    you can't have negatives unfortunately...
    thresholds are like a tally that each time the required results of a trigger are made another one of the threshold is added, when it reaches a certain amount on the threshold it will make that level of the trait be gained

    but, as well as thresholds, negatives can't be used at all i don't think which is why the trait validator isn't working

    Talking Re: A CTD! Help me!

    no no no. I meant the effects like:

    command 1
    command -1

    I have on some of them:

    command 1 (1 space, should be 2)

    And on others:

    command -1 (2 spaces, should be 1)

    Could the validator find mistakes like this?

    I changed all the effects so they were correct and it still crashed. Any ideas on what other mistakes I made when editing this file?
