I am writing simple batch files for installing my mods for Star Wars Battlefront 2, but I am having a problem with it. Here is my script so far:

@echo off

cls

echo Hello, welcome to Darkicon's Star Wars Battlefront II mod installer!

pause

echo Would you like to install Civil War Elimination on Geonosis?

echo Y Yes

echo N No

CHOICE /C:yn Choose an option.

IF errorlevel 2 GOTO No

IF errorlevel 1 GOTO Yes

:Yes

echo Deleting original "mission.lvl".

del C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\data\_lvl_pc\mission.lvl

echo Moving Civil War Elimination on Geonosis "mission.lvl".

copy C:\XL Civil War Geo\mission.lvl C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\data\_lvl_pc\

pause

echo All done! Have fun!

:No

GOTO End

:End

echo Goodbye!

pause

exit

When I execute it, it just closes.

Thank you.

Try putting Quotes " " around any filename that has a space. Also searchh online for batch files that deal with

echo Y Yes

echo N No

CHOICE /C:yn Choose an option.

IF errorlevel 2 GOTO No

IF errorlevel 1 GOTO Yes

Not to sure about that

Get rid of the @echo off for now and run it from the command prompt, rather than clicking the icon. That way you will get to see how far down the script it gets before it finishes and you will also see any error messages.

If I remember correctly 'CHOICE' only works on 9x so try using this:

set /p user=Enter Y/N

IF %user% EQU N GOTO NO

IF %user% EQU Y GOTO YES

Instead of this:

echo Y Yes

echo N No

CHOICE /C:yn Choose an option.

IF errorlevel 2 GOTO No

IF errorlevel 1 GOTO Yes

Wow thanks.

The new choice command and the quotes around the paths worked.

Now I need help with this. It's the uninstaller. When I run it, it says it can't find the path, a bad syntax for renaming, etc.

Nevermind, I just messed up where I put the quotes.
