    When I update the .bat file to allocate more RAM I am unable to open my campaign (when launching from the .bat)

    If I launch d20pro from the exe it will load. Here is the error message I get when trying to launch my campaign from the .bat.

    Failed to initialize RES
    Caused by: judge\campaigns\Pathfinder - Kingmaker\res\ManuallySpecified\manifest.dat (Access is denied).


    The only thing I changed was the allocated RAM from 512 to 1024

    Hail and well met d4jones,

    What version of Windows are you running? Also please post the contents of your modified d20pro.bat file. Thanks!

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

    Here is my modified .bat

    @echo off
    setlocal

    REM By default, we locate java in the path. If you do not have a valid 32bit JRE found first in the path
    REM The update the below with a full absolute path to a javaw.exe
    set JAVA=javaw

    start %JAVA% -Xmx1024m -Dsun.java2d.ddoffscreen=false -Dsun.java2d.noddraw -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false -jar d20Pro.dat


    d20Pro launches, it's just when I select which campaign to use.

    You can read about my identical issue here - viewtopic.php?f=13&t=332

    Or you can just skip to the end, and move your D20PRO installation out of protected storage.

    IE, you currently have it installed into C:\Program Files\Mindgene\d20pro (or some such thing). The " \Program files" portion of the path is "protected storage"; and it doesn't "play nice" with all aspects of d20PRO ..

    Personally, I have my d20PRo installed in C:\Mindgene\d20Po (you can just cut/paste the current directory structure if you like).

    Copy to a new folder, don't move

    The securities on a folder follow if you move it... if you copy, it will take on the new parent folder permissions.

    This is correct. I used the phrase "move" to generically mean "Cut/Paste". Since they are distinctly separate processes, with different rules associated with file properties; I should have been more specific.
