Help With Database PLS!

djday45 · 11-03-2004, 11:22 AM

I have managed to redownload the game and get it going again BUT i had taken copies of my old database so i did not lose my universe but i cannot get the game to read the data to get it working it keeps saying all the files are not found and then the game just shuts down.

I really want some help here from someone from the company as I am getting very frustrated and annoyed which is noty like me.

But if I have lost all my previous universe I am going to go nuts.

Don't worry, if you've got a backup, you're on the safe side.
You should have some files with the extension .dat like fighters.dat, judges.dat and so on.
Create a folder like for example "mydata" inside the folder /data which is a subfolder of the TB program directory. Copy all the files into that folder. Start the game. Open Game Options and search the Database drop down. Select "mydata". Restart TB and that's it.
Hope that helps!
