Nothing to do, always get the same error message: Assertion Failure Location: Fog\Src\Excel\Excel.cpp line#529 Expression: *data == SYM_EOL And this with all the mods I tried to do!

I believe it's an error with the saved txt files...I had that error when I used Quattro Pro, when I used D2Excel, it was fine. Or was that a different error message I had?------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

So what do you I can do?------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons. Beaucoup d'entre eux sont paresseux, ils se contentent de traîner, de se droguer, de se raconter des histoires, d'aller au plus facile sur le chemin de l'eternité. Tu n'es pas comme ça, toi. Tu es intelligent, astucieux, tu as des principes, de l'initiative. Secoues-toi un peu! Tu pourrais réellement avoir une chance."

I'm not exactly sure if that's the cause of the error but have you got mods to work before using this method or no?------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

At the beginning, I played Diablo2 Classic&Expansion with no problems. Then I download mods from the keep and used them without any problems again... And finally, I tried to create my own mods. I read the tutorials, ask a few dumb questions at the keep forums and tried to modificate the game. But whatever I did modificate, when I tried to create the bin files I run the game correctly with -txt -direct -w, but after that, when I tried to launch a game with a character to complete the process, I get the error message I tell before...  PS: Is this me, or has your golem again change a much? How can I explain that, I find it less... um... square... ------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

Well, what are you saving your txt files with? Are you inserting all the bin files? Did you properly make your bin files? ------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage [This message has been edited by Apocalypse Demon (edited 19 January 2002).]

To generate bins, don't run it in -direct -txt, run it in -txt. Then, get your bins, put them in then run in -direct -txt.------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

Remember that when you save your .txt file in excel it asks some questions, it is important that you choose to "keep file structure" (or something like that, don't know because my excel is in portuguese ). Looks like you're doing things right, if nothing works perhaps you should try reinstalling the game, it could work .------------------ Alkalund

SYM_EOL errors come abt when you've got txt file(s) with a missing term or last column empty. Go thru the files you have modded to check if you left the last column empty on any lines (esp the very last few lines). otherwise check if you've got lines sticking out further than it's supposed to.------------------ ~ La Vie est comme l'aspirateur, elle suce... ~ ~BG Mod~

RicFaith is right...for example, you add new recipes in cubemain but forget to put 0 in the column waaaaaay over to the right-hand side.Also, if you edit runes.txt with Microsoft Excel this can happen. "Normal" excel hates runes.txt. Edit that file with the d2excel editor here at the Keep. ------------------ - JEFF "A hero is no braver than anyone else. He is only brave five minutes longer." For my latest mod (for LoD/expansion), download Version 1.1 of Sanctuary in Chaos or at this mirror site - Or for old stuff (for classic D2), visit my orignal mod site at www.planetdiablo.com/sanctuary

Big thx to all of you! But with all your answers, still nothing work... I checked all the columns in my modded runes.txt, there was apparently no problem, and it's the only txt file that I'd modified... When I saved it with Excel, I saved it as a tab-delimited file as it is said in the tutorials, but I guess you know what follow... So, I think I'm gonna what Alkalund told me and re-install the game. The problem may come from here, coz it's really the mess in my D2 directory See what happened...------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

OOOOOPS! Thx you prevent me BrotherLaz, I was really decided to did it! I hadn't noticed the last line in Jbouley reply. Perhaps would work... I know, I know, what's the interest of asking questions if I don't read carefully the answers... Mea culpa  ------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

Runes.txt is one file you shouldn't touch with Excel, even as a text file. Access WILL export to text with trailing tabs, so if you have Access you can import your Runes spreadsheet to Access, then export as tab-delimited text. But if you don't have Access (and if you don't mind hex editing), you can always take that file and append as many tab bytes as necessary to complete that last row to the final column. (No more and no less, you'll have to count them).Why Blizzard chose to make that table file not have a terminating column, when they did for all others... <sigh> Best to use D2Excel for this one.

A big big thx to all of you!  I finally succeed in modding Diablo2! Jeff and Myrghinoc you were right! Dunno why, but the source of all my problems was this %µ**#¤? Microsoft program! Since I re-did exactly the same things with D2 Excel Editor (a very nice program ) everything work correctly... And I specialy thx BrotherLaz for having noticed me that I was an [i]imbécile[/] (in french in the text).------------------ "Ne sois pas si défaitiste, comme tant de jeunes démons.

Just add a column of 0s or whatever to runes.txt and it will work fine with Excel.------------------ Bleak Times are here.
