If things are not working correctly , then python may spit out an exception that might look something like this :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1580800\2679758660\ECParse.py", line 2237, in <module>
MainFunction()
File "D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1580800\2679758660\ECParse.py", line 2210, in MainFunction
ParseSetupFile()
File "D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1580800\2679758660\ECParse.py", line 2145, in ParseSetupFile
file = open(szThisDir + '/ECParse.ini')
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'D:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\workshop\\content\\1580800\\2679758660/ECParse.ini'
[\i]

Hopefully whatever it says will give some clue as to what is going wrong.

If you aren't getting any output being written to the ECParseOutput directory , then your best bet will be to try running it from a command prompt so you can see if any error is being produced.

So do something like this :
1) Open a command prompt (WindowsKey+R and then type cmd)
2) Type the following in the command prompt window (including quotes):
"D:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/1580800/2679758660/ECParse.py"
(If you are using a different drive for steam , then you will need to adjust this path accordingly).

When things are working correctly you should just get a message saying something like 'Errors = 1' , which indicates the number of errors found , and some text files will be written to the ECParseOutput subdirectory.

after running the file on notepad++ with the run function, it doesnt do anything, i made sure the ini had the proper directories in it and the name changed to ECParse.ini

Ah good , I'm glad someone has found it vaguely intelligible enough to be useful :)

This is a very useful tool.
Since I'm not a programmer or coder, I have no idea what I'm doing most of the time.

Small oversights and mistakes are common for me and those are very hard to detect. This tool is helping me to find all of those mistakes and oversights.

Thanks a lot for this, it definilty makes modding easier.
