Datafile problem

[clint_lindstrom at hotmai]

Hello all,

I took the plunge and I'm working on creating an AB file for a game. The
definition file is done and I'm working on creating the data file now. I've
quickly populated the info in the data file but I get the following error
when trying to load it in AB:

"No user-selectable race is defined in the data files"

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? There are two races specified in
the data file, I can't figure out where the error is.

Thanks in advance!

-Clint

Have you defined both races as a 'shared race'? Doing so will make them not
appear in the list of races.

That is exactly what I did. I updated the file and it now loads perfectly.
