-
Lately iv'e been modding adding things(add-on,weapons,player stuffs,etc)I have been getting errors when editing in the file called dlclist.xml in OpenIV.It says xml syntax error.Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

@ChopIsMad when it says syntax error it will also say where the error is and move the cursor to the error. Where in the file is the problem occurring?
-
@InfiniteQuestion it said "XML Parsing error at line 1, col 1:
Invalid at the top level of the document."
-
@ChopIsMad what does the top of you file say?
-
What do you mean by that what top of the file?
-
@ChopIsMad XML Parsing error at line 1, col 1
What does the top of your file look like?
-
XML Syntax

@ChopIsMad ok since you seem to not understand at all, copy and past your Dlclist.

@ChopIsMad
Copy the entire contents of your 'dlclist.xml' & paste it into your reply using a codeblock. Thanks
How to post a codeblock:
```xml
Copy these three lines to a blank txt file, overwrite only this line with dlclist data, copy all & post into reply.
```

@InfiniteQuestion can it be a screenshot so i dont have to mess up something?

@ChopIsMad
It's a lot better & easier to check if it's in a codeblock.
Let's be honest
, if you can't copy & paste, modding is certainly not for you. 
Detailed Codeblock Instructions:
- Copy these next three lines below (drag over the three text lines from right bottom to top left (to highlight them, three lines will go dark grey) & then hit 'Ctrl+C') :
```xml
Copy these three lines to a blank txt file, overwrite only this line with dlclist data, copy all & post into reply.
```- Create a '.txt' file on your Desktop (right-click on Desktop > 'New' > 'Text Document')
- Open the newly created 'New Text Document.txt' file & then paste the three lines into it ('Ctrl+V')
- Open up 'dlclist.xml' in OpenIV by double-clicking it (opening with double-click means it's uneditable, so you can't do any harm to it)
- Highlight all ('Ctrl +A') & then copy all ('Ctrl+C')
- Back to your Desktop 'New Text Document.txt' file
- Drag over the middle line (from right to left) to highlight it & only it & then hit 'Ctrl+V'
- Once you've overwritten the middle line, hit 'Ctrl+A' (to highlight all text) & then 'Ctrl+C' (to copy all)
- Back here in this thread, reply & then hit 'Ctrl+V' (to paste into post) & then '[Submit]' to post it.
Follow those instructions exactly & you can't mess it up
