I've got the full game, I've played the hole game, I downloaded the Editor, but then I try to play the editor and it does not work! it says: Blades of Avernum was unable to find or load graphic 2000. make sure the editor is in the Date folder of Blades of avernum(and not in a sub-folder).Also make sure all graphics are where they should be.(and I did all that, and nothing,(at least I think I did it all, I've found the graphics 2000 thingy, but it's still not working!) dose enybody know what to do? :confused:

Question answered many times. When you download and unzip the editor files, take ONLY the BoAEditor.EXE file and put it in your BoA data folder. So if you access the editor, it'll be C:\Program Files\Blades of Avernum\Data\{EDITOR.EXE}

That's on a Windows platform...not sure where to place it on a Mac.

Is it just me, or does this question come up quite a lot?

You are using a PC, I gather? I can't be terribly useful in that case, but I can add that most likely your editor is not in the right folder. Be sure to move ONLY the exe (not the whole folder) into the Data folder.

EDIT: RC beat me to it. If you actually are using a Mac, it goes in the Blades of Avernum Files folder.

Yes, just unzip the EXE by itself to the data folder and you'll be fine.

Edit: Aiyee! Spelling mistake.

From what I'm getting, you unzip the files into a temporary directory, but when you try to move the EXE itself, you only get a shortcut icon. In that case, right-click on the BoAEditor.EXE that was unzipped and click copy. Then, go to the data Folder in your BoA Folder, right-click on an empty space and choose Paste. If it still does a shortcut icon, then you either chose to copy the shortcut icon or your computer is acting up.

I've made a new scenario, and when I try to load it, it says this: Unhandled Exception:c0000005 at address 0042fd58(I don't know what that meens) and when I click ok it says:this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. if the problem persists, contact the program vender. and when I go to to details>> it says this: BoA edit VI caused an invalid page fault in module BoA edit VI.0.2.EXE at 018f:0042fd58. and then there a lot of other stuff(mostly numbers) and then it quits. and I don't know what this "Program Vender" is. enybody know what to do?( I just think I'm computer is plain messed up)

You don't. Mods could, but they probably won't, because it's unlikely that anyone else will post in this topic.

Well, I'll post! :D

Just to say that people have to copy ALL content in the editor folder to the DATA folder. That way will work and you'll have the subfolder with sample scripts, etc. :)

As I said, the subfolder contains script samples, etc. It's not required. :P
