How to edit units with editor

Post by JaM2013 »

Hello Guys, i would really appreciate help with my problem - i'm trying to edit equipment file with editor (PzCEdit) anyway no matter what i change, once i open the game and start the campaign, none of my changes are applied. i searched through forum to find some kind of tutorial for this but no luck so far..

Try to start a new campaign. Then the changes should show up.

i have finally figured it out... its a little bit embarrassing.. i didnt realized Panzer Corps is installed on C Drive, so no application had rights to write changes to files...

Only true if you use C:\Programs(X86) for example. If you create your own folder like C:\games the problem of writing privileges doesn't occur (you have FULL Access to all files).
You could also try to start the Editor as an Administrator (right click, Run as Adminstrator), thus you should have the right to modify the file.
