You did save your game, right?
Maybe you're not using the latest version of CSBwin?

The latest stable release is through the DME, or you can upgrade to the latest version currently being worked on through Paul's site (link in the top thread of the CSBwin forum - CSBwin98v52test5 I believe)

What is the contents of the folder where you have the CSBwin? Perhaps it doens't have, for some reason, the .dat file it takes the dungeon from to add your champions to (I beleive it is or was stored in mini.dat).

Also, where are you trying to export to? Only CSB can be exported in to, I blieve

Ah, wait, you can't use the load/save champion, only 'make new adventure' - is this what you are doing?

Yes, I'd say the problem lies here. You can only use the Make New Adventure button to convert your DM team to CSB. All the other options don't work.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :EVIL: NAH NAH NAH! I go play the prison, then save and quit! Then I start it again and go to utility...actually this could be the problem, after using RTC, I think I might have missed a step. But what ever...and go to utility and press start new adventure,,It's been such a long time since I tried but I think that's the button I pressed. 2 buttons I pressed and it gave me a long message saying this version is not complete. But g2g hopefully you understand that-gotta go! I gotta eat pizza...(in evil voice)pizza! I love pizza!

If you press 'load'# or 'save' you will get a long message, because you can't load or save charatcers - the 'new adventure' shoudl work as you want and describe it though!

Even long error messages are worth reading ! Use a few downers if you've had too many uppers ;)
