richuk1234 Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Hi all newbie to the forum , and i will apologise if this has been covered. i have downloaded the game from Steam, and that runs with 12.0.4. i then downloaded the Data Editor and then upon locating it, i click on the exe icon and it wont run. i get the win 7 error (Editor has stopped working). i ran it in xp mode to get an idea, and it says "essential files are missing/or corrupt". i have since, through steam, validated the game cache and defraged the game files (under the local file tab), restarted and it still will not work. Any idea's?????? Machine Toshiba c660d -- core i3 2.4gz, HD graphics card, 4GB Ram, (so spec is fine) It DOES run the resource archiver thingy .

FrazT Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Have you tried this? Unable to find Essential Data: If you experience this message when attempting to start the game, configure the compatibility mode for Steam using these steps: - Close Steam - Right click on Steam shortcut - Click "Properties" - Choose the "Compatibility" tab - Uncheck the box "Run in Compatibility mode for" - Click on "OK" and then start Steam using the same shortcut - You can now try the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
