Pod.Ini is a file. Do you mean PodIt?

No, you don't mean podit... because podit doesn't have check marks.

So then, the pod.ini file is write protected. Right click it, select properties, and uncheck 'read only'


And while we're here, let's anticipate your next problem. Where did you get the game? It doesn't sound like the full installation to me.

I gave him a link from Vales on YouTube... He might not have used it though, but it is a possibility.

To my knowledge that site you mentioned never did have a full version of MTM2 for download so my guess is your game is not the full version.

If you got it from there then why not ask that site for support, after all the version of the game you got was supplied by them.

i installed pod.ini. ..
By any chance did you mean PODINI instead of POD.INI?

Despite similar spellings, the former is a pod installation utility program, while the latter is a game .INI text file containing the names of the pods installed in MTM2, and is already found in the game folder when it is installed on your PC.
