HElp running mods or editing files on Win7 64bit?

from Sins Forums

Just got myself a super gaming rig with 8gb or RAM and a GTX580 from MSI!

 

Too bad,  I cant convert .entity files to .txt files using Harpo's converter or by manual conversion.

 

Mods like distant stars also crash my game when loaded.

 

Tried to run in compatibility mode too.

 

Anyhelp?

Just download the txts. There's some packs somewhere around here (surely someone will link them soon). I don't use any other programs besides the standard 3ds max and such so I can't say anything about their compatability.

 

I run Windows 7 64-bit and have no problems running/working on my project. Other mods may require different game versions.

64 bit should not be a problem but 32 bit software needs to be installed to the program files (x86) directory for proper emulation.

Is the game updated? Mods are built for specific versions of specific expansions. Do any other mods work?

Also going to the websites in which you downloaded the mods will help. Some are dead and some are still going (like Distant Stars). The ones that are still going can help you with any issues you are having.
