Data editor question

How do i get the game/game database to incorporate the changes i have made thru the data editor?

Have tried the various options in file drop down menu in the data editor without success

When you click 'new game' a pop up box should appear. In the bottom right hand corner of that pop up should be a box marked 'change'. Tick this and you'll be taken to another screen, that lists all the database add ons you've created. Just select the ones you want to be included in the game.

When i click new game, it automatically loads the game database, and then the new game wizard opens, with the new game screen in the background.

I cant see any box marked change

You didn't overwrite the config.xml file by any chance did you?

If so, you should go change the file name as that'll mess up the choice screen. The game will automatically produce a new config.xml so don't worry.

Yes, i have overwritten the config file.

But when i load the config file, and then save it as something else, it doesnt change anything (there is still no option to pick the database in the game)

I said "change the file name" not "load and save as another file".......well, anyhow, since you've already saved it as a new one, just delete the config.xml now. That should do the trick.

Thanks - got there in the end

nxt question - when changing player data, why, for example, does it change an attribute from 15 to 16 when i actually changed it from 15 to 18?

Abilities are limited by the player's CA(current ability), which is on the first tab of the player information page.

I'd suggest you post any following questions to the editor forum...and maybe read some guides/Q&As before posting, for some answers can be found without much effort.
