Has anyone else had this same problem when editing???

[blacksheep]

In my previous Civ III rules I had changed a lot of the names of the units and it worked fine after changing the art/unit/ini names. But with PTW I cannot play these same games because it says it cannot locate the new name changes. What I dont understand is most of the units come from the old Civ III files so why is it not working. When I went in PTW to change the ini files these were all new units that I had not modified so there was nothing I could do. Could someone help me please?!?!?!

As I understand your problem, the solution would be to move the BIC file with the changed unit names to the CIV3PTW/Scenario folder, and create a new folder in that folder with the same name as your scenario. Inside that folder, place an Art folder, and inside that, a Unit folder, inside of which you put the folders for the renamed units. Example: I have a scenario named Giant_World. The path to my Dreadnaught (a renamed Battleship) is: CIV3PTW/Scenarios/Giant_World/Art/Units/Dreadnaught
Your units should work, then.

The problem is probably because PTW requires an additional entry in the PediaIcons.txt file that wasn't needed before. Look for an area that has ANIMNAME, towards the bottom of the file, and the name of the units. Change the names to fit your new units.
