After a race against time I finished my gotm24 yesterday night at 23.30 .
A space race win but my pc get this message:

LOAD ERROR
ERROR REDAING FILE
Missing entry in "Scenarios\gotm24\text\Pediacons.txt" : HAPPY_RACE_KOREA

the game will now exit

After that I go to sleep and today I was triyng to find the error.
I think I did a mistake by loading the gotm24save from the folder saved games, and not from the folder scenarios because I copied succesfully the file pediacons.txt that was in the gotm24savespack I downloaded before in the text folder.

Now my problem is to refind the original pediacons.txt file.
Anyone can help me without saying " Trombas you must reinstall civ 3 PTW" ?

thanks in advance and excuse my bad english :)

P.S. Anyway can I save my gotm24 game by put my final save in the scenario folder or not ?

Now I have submitted my saved game anyway but with the score of 00000 because I can't see it. Maybe cracker or another one can tell me the score in here :)
thanks

Here is the thread located about 2 inches further down on the computer screen with almost the exact same title where this problem was first addressed over 3 weeks ago:

There were several typos that could be fix by changing a few letters.

Trombas,

If you are on PTW, your original Pediaicon.txt file is not effected by any GOTM installs because they are all placed in scenarios folders with the name/number of that game.

If you are playing in Civ3v1.29, the autoinstaller makes abakup copy of your original pediaicons.txt file and then places the backup copies in a folder named /gotmXX_before where XX is the game number.

If you still think you may need a refreshed copy of your original pediaicons.txt file just let me know. You will need to comply with my original and ongoing repeated request to all players to always, always, always identify the software verison of the Civ software that you are playing whenever you ask any questions for technical support. This will allow me to have a remote chance of identifying the actual files that you need.

Excuse me I play with civ 3 PTW.
Anyway I have did a fault by replacing pediacons.text in the original folder not in the scenarios because I did a mistake ... I have told about it in the first post I mean.

So can anyone give me this file ?
thanks.
