After having modified the ministers' file, the game has stopped working. after the scenario selection and having clicked on start, while loading, the game crashes.
we have darkest hour 1.04 running on windows 10 64 bit.

How did you modify it? What program did you use, what did you change etc.?

we used the Capable Data Editor by kodak and we modify the ministers' text files ( ministers_ger.csv and germany.inc); we started modifying the ministers using the editor and then, seeing that the game crashed, i modified directly the text files but the game didn't work.
we modified the files by trying to write down new ministers.
we didn't find the ministers we wanted to use in the text files of the original scenario for the mod we were trying to make.

Hmm. I haven't used the editor you described, so I don't know... did you get any kind of error report?

Best thing to do is to go to the savedebug file inside the darkest hour game and read it. If you can't find an error the last thing it tried to load would be the problem
