it means it can't find or open the powers.dat file. Make sure you have that file in the correct place and that it's not corrupted.

THanks, the powers.dat is wherever it installed automatically...where should it be?

There's a powers.dat in the mod folder for any campaign mod you have (ffx3, libertybay, etc.), including the one that comes with the game (Data). I'm not sure why CTool2 needs the powers.dat file, but DAT files are sometimes kept on the CD if you didn't do a full install of the game. Is your game CD in the drive when you get this error? There is a chance that CTool2 needs it and isn't looking in the right spot for it.

You can also create the data folder on your hard drive by copying it from the CD (under the \program files\Irrational Games\Freedom Force vs The 3rd Reich\ folder on the CD) into the base game folder (http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=49868.msg680024#msg680024) on your hard drive. That may help but, like I said, I don't really know why CTool2  even needs powers.dat.
