FinalAlbion.qst
FinalAlbion.wld
FinalAlbion_RT.stb
GlobalQuests.qst
GuildExterior.tng

I take it there should be a FinalAlbion folder?
Yes. It should have all the region .tng and .lev files in it.

FreeRoam creates it. This is from the first post in FreeRoam set-up thread.

12. Next it asks you where to extract the files. Choose the data folder above the levels folder

That is when the folder is created.

Re: Small Problem

Ok, I found the folder. Is there anything specific I have to do with it now to make Free Roam work?

Re: Small Problem

It needs to be in the data folder, should be this path:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Fable - The Lost Chapters\data

That is where the levels folder with the .tngs and .levs should be. Then FreeRoam should work. If I am understanding you correctly.

Re: Small Problem

Ok, FinalAlbion is where you said it should be, but it still doesn't seem to want to work. I tried it without steps 13-15 and with them and neither method worked for me.

Any help is much appreciated but for now im off to bed so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't answer.

Re: Small Problem

It seems that most people running Vista have problems installing and running Modding tools like Fable Explorer and FreeRoam. I tried to install both of those programs on a Vista PC, and it didn't work. So that might be your problem. Other than that, the only thing I can suggest is reinstalling Fable and going from there.

Re: Small Problem

That seems like my only solution at this point, at least now I will know what to do the first time with FE instead of sitting here wondering why it wasn't working lol.

When I do uninstall I know my mods will stay unless I delete them manually, but will any thing I have tried to do with Free Roam and Albion Explorer still effect the game when I reinstall it or should I delete them as well?

Re: Small Problem

When you reinstall all files will go back to normal.

How did you make AlbionExplorer changes without FreeRoam working?

Did you try the FreeRoam .fmp on this page?

Re: Small Problem

Sort of off-topic, but after you get it working, please make a copy of your Fable folder and rename it "Fable Backup" to ensure you won't permanently kill Fable.

Re: Small Problem

Yea, I should have done that this time to avoid reinstall lol. But why would it permanetly kill Fable, I can always reinstall it.

Well, I tried all of it with a fresh install, is there any extra things that couold make it work that anyone could think of besides the method in Albion Knights post?

Re: Small Problem

Woo, taking ownership/control of the Fable TLC data file worked great.

As far as taking ownership goes, from what I understand it basically gives you permission to edit files in the C drive.

Could you clarify what you mean by taking control of the file and how do you get ownership of the files? I am receiving the same error as you were and i would really appreciate your help.
