What do you mean by it don't work? Sometimes elma screws up state.dat, and make it something like 2k in size. If this is your problem, then nothing can be done about it. Please give details!

Well when I start elma it just shows a black screen and then returns to windows. But when I delete state.dat it works

Hm seems like corrupted... There are some ppl around who can edit state, but I don't know if they can fix it. If your total is big then start over

Back-ups, back-ups...

Send me the state and I check it.

I have stored all state.dats which are sent to me after this new Moposite. So, if you need just mail to me. I'll put some info about this to Moposite sooner or later.

Is it legal to do it on your own? Then why isn't state editor downloadable on moposite? It would be coal, then i shouldn't send in my state to CSabi to edit when my hooked time is buggy or etc..

these things should have some kind of an offical statement somewhere, maybe explained more detailed. now you get the picture that downloading/spreading state-editor isn't allowed, but using it is?

KD · Post by KD » 10 Jan 2003, 13:07

It's really strange. But if state-editing would be easier than now, then many ppl who now don't use it coz he hasn't got the program, would use it, saying why not?
