Well I know whats wrong just not how to fix it. My game is on my external hard drive "J:\Games\Microsoft Games\Fable - The Lost Chapters\" But the tools keep checking "C:\Program files\etc" I noticed the conifg files but changing the paths did not help either. It is still looking in C:\
So anything I missed?

Thanks
~Anthony

Did you install the games to the external drive or did you do something stupid like install it to C: and then move it to the external drive?

If you moved it, that means the registry information needs to be edited.
Start>Run or WinKey+R, type in "regedit" and press enter.
Navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Fable\1.0

Find the entry that says SetupPath and change it to reflect where the Fable.exe is. And I can't stress this enough, it is of the utmost importance that you make sure the line ends with a backslash (\). If it does not, the tools still won't work, even if the rest of the line is correct.

Hmm it seems to have been set to C:\ ...
I just know I set the installer path to J:\
Well whatever thanks for pointing me to the key. The tools work fine now.

Edit: Well I seem to have another issue. When trying to load fmp files it acts like it does something. Shadownet treeview refreshes, Choclatebox shows that dialog and I press apply. In both I save and run and no edits happened. I Push the X and it asks me if I want to save nothing has changed. I also noticed after loading the files and checking the files that should have been changed but they where not touched.

What mods are you loading? How many have you tried?

Well after the first one did not work I tried a bunch of them from the completed mods section. A few that edits the hero. No silver keys required to open the chests.. ( I gave all my keys to that damned door Sad

).

Also I have one more question that seems to be asked alot.
How can I age down my hero? I can't do the skill one, maxed all skills and stats. The trainer changed my age number but not my mesh. I'm still look like a 65 year old guy Confused

. And I have not bothered with the editing game files one. I think you know why. Razz
