Player Editor for EA Sports Cricket 07

Pretty cool, eh? So what are you waiting for? Probably tutorials right? First, let’s see the FAQ posted by the creator, Barmyarmy:
Where should I put the exe?
Anywhere you like provided the xml file is in the same directory. The editor will tell you if it’s not

I get this error: “PlayerEditor07.exe Application Error ” The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135) Click OK to terminate the application” 
You will need the .net 2.0 Framework for this editor to run – Get it here

I’ve entered the paths wrong/want to change them
Edit the bats.xml file using a program like xml notepad and clear the fields for C07 path and ImpBigPath.

How do I make/find the roster file?
Rosters are made by saving roster in My cricket;load/save. They are located in X:Documents and SettingsUser nameMy DocumentsEA SPORTS(TM) Cricket 07

Why can’t PS2 users see bat/face previews?
The bat and face files are in different formats which no-one has been able to work out.

Obviously you get paid to make editors so I should constantly bug you for updates, point out all the flaws and demand new features.
I do this in my spare time. I’m happy to recieve feedback and bug reports but if I see any posts with “urgent, fix this now, make this” in I will be deleting them and probably negative repping you into the bargain.

Who else should I thank for this?
A fuller list is in the readme but I’d like to mention duded64 and adthomp for their excellent work

“An attempt was made to load a program in an incorrect format”
This is a 64 bit issue and I can’t fix it at present. In your bats.xml file set previews to false and the editor will run.
