Okay I'm attempting to figure out everything I just purchased TWGS lite GOLD, and I've been busy editing ships, aliens & planets like crazy so that I can start banging some games and watching how everything interacts.. I wanted to start creating some alien ranks and was prompted to get the TOOLS100.exe from the TWGS game itself, I went to the twgs/beta page and downloaded the file.

When i run the file It pops open an MS-DOS box very quickly and I can read that it says that it's "unpacking", yet it doesn't extract any files from the executable. What gives is there an error with the toolkit or should I look for it any another location, btw the other "Mirror sites" appear not to be functioning, can anyone help???

Thanks A million

Close the TWGS before trying to install the tools.

Hi Harley

When I try to open the TOOLS program I get a "not enough memory to run application try closing programs and try again" message. Running 98se with 512 mb RAM and have tried re-booting and shutting down all but explorer and systray yet still get that error. Any suggestions?

no idea

Where can one find the Tools file? ...

At the very bottom of the page where you download TWGS from.

Thanks. I found it, and then found out it doesn't work with my system ( Not compatible anyway. ) ...

I run on Windows 2000 ... a lot of DOS stuff doesn't seem to work. *LOL*

Oh well.

tools works fine on win2k. What problem are you having?

It states "C:\Windows\System32\Autoexec.nt The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows Applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate.

Do I need to open / setup this file in a certain directory?

Here is my Autoexec.nt file:

@echo off

REM AUTOEXEC.BAT is not used to initialize the MS-DOS environment.
REM AUTOEXEC.NT is used to initialize the MS-DOS environment unless a
