Note: The XEdit package also contains a special file called "[Game].Hardcoded.keep.this.with.the.exe .and.otherwise.ignore.it.I.really.mean.it.dat" where "[Game]" is the name of the game (possibly abbreviated). This file needs to be in the same folder as the XEdit.exe application. It contains hardcoded game engine records which will show up as false errors in XEdit if said file is absent.
