Hi, tryin to make my first mod ever, and when tryin to re-insert weapons.txt backinto the .mpq file, i end up getting this error when runnign my .bat file :

Line 1: Opening write archive patch_d2.mpq
Line 2: Error: Attempt to add nonexistant file weapons.text to archive
Line 3: Closing write archive

my .txt file looks like this :

O patch_d2.mpq
A weapons.text data\global\excel\weapons.txt
C patch_d2.mpq


Where am i going wrong?

YOu also need to add another line for the bin file so add another line. Now, your whole thing should say:

O patch_d2.mpq
A weapons.txt data\global\excel\weapons.txt
A weapons.bin data\global\excel\weapons.bin
C patch_d2.mpq

The bin line is for packing the bin you will generate into the mpq. The first time you run it, mpq2k will report out {cannot add nonexistent file} but that is okay, you will have your bin (and all the other bins) when you start a game using -direct -txt. Take the new bin to where you have mpq2k, run your script again, and both txt and bin will be packed into the mpq.

And yes, it is txt not text both as a command line switch and using the text files.
