A while back, I downloaded what in my opinion, one of the greatest scenarios ever built for Civilization 2, the Fading Lights, the Byzantine Empire from the recapture off Constantinople to the liquidation of Pontus Province. Unfortunately, I just moved out of my dorm for the summer, so my computer is still unloaded (and there is NO room for it in the house), so I don't have the details, but my problem is this.
The event folders are so large that they have to be uploaded every 50 turns. For reasons unknown, sometimes after putting a savegame file through the 'Delevent' .exe file provided, the game informs me that there has been some sort of 'event error' and that I should consult the manual to find out how to debug the events file, and any save thereafter gives me the same message. The events files work fine with other saves, so I have deduced the problem is with the savegame file.
The Civ 2 manual was no help at all; perhaps the text was referring to the FW manual, which I may never find again. For the past two weeks I have looked everywhere on the net, and it seems I am the only one whose ever had this problem. I could ignore this problem with the Byzantines (as it appeared in 1400, and with the Turks gone, most of the events made no sense anyway). But now, I'm playing the Latins in 1295 and the after testing, I'm getting this message. Honestly I don't know how to fix the problem, or how to avoid it (though I think it might have something to do with the capture of Cairo). If anyone could help me I would be grateful.

How are you swapping and deleting the events?
