Title: How can I play on an edited Robot Arena 1 MFC Application?
Post by: Hard Bot on September 08, 2012, 04:54:25 PM: I just opened the Robot Arena 1 MFC Application and found out the Armoured Forklift's Wood Armour's files were missing there so I added them. But I get this when I go play on Robot Arena 1:

Anyway I put this within the other listed weapons in the MFC I opened in Notepad:
Code: [Select]

Post by: Badger on September 08, 2012, 05:29:29 PM: Well, there's your problem.

NEVER edit .exes in notepad.

1) They're usually encrypted, so if you do anything this happens
2) This happens

If the problem is 1, just re-install from a different source.

If it isn't, then the program is looking for stuff that isn't there. So stop making it look (take out he stuff you put in) or put the stuff in (find the missing textures and put them where they're supposed to be)

Either way, a full re-install from a different source would be the best option.
