Hello

I had some free time so tried to do some basic modifications in this good old game. A small task, what I hoped to do as a totall beginner: as I think the Squire fits into the Empire rather than to the Kinghts by, I decided to change them. I used Dal Gurak's unit editor. First I added the Squire to the Empire and then the Archer to the Knights (with the Army editor, adding them to the unit list and removing the other one). Then I extracted from system.xcr the building.cfg and changed their codes at the baracks. I re-packed the xcr with encrypting as well, but the game crashed after I tried to test it (with a knights vs. empire map).

I tried many things to solve it but it crashed. Maybe sounds stupid, but I think there is some problem with the encrypting. For a try, I re-set everithing, (I had backup files), and then I again extracted the building.cfg, then did no modifications just put it back to the system.xcr. There were no modification- and the game crashed anyway, yet no other previously changed file remained in the directory. Maybe the editor didn't encrypts the files well? Or I just have bad luck? Is there an xcr editor wher eI can edit the files without removing them from the xcr? Or what you guys recommend? I'm open for everithing.
