now the cheat menu doesnīt work anymore!
Anyone else having the same problem?

The game loads, I start a new game and then when I try to use the cheat menu to see my new unit the game crashes and Windows blue screen appears.

The unit I added is the Legion from CTP I by the way.

Post the lines you added and to what files... the assumption I have is you didn't add all the required files and the editor realizes this when you open it. You should have changes in newsprite.txt, unit.txt, gl_str.txt, uniticon.txt and the graphic files you added.
