Now straight to the point:
I've been building on a mod that I play with my friends/family for well over a year and have run into this exception a number of times. My main issue is that I put to mod into my C:\Users\user\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes 2\mod projects directory so -- when the Intermediate Cache files are created the paths become extremely long.
Until this point, though, I haven't had an issue finding the specific offending files. However, I'm now stuck trying to find the ones that are causing the issue and it's quite a headache. I've deleted/reverted the most recent changes I've made in hopes of that being the cause, but to no avail.
The log files clearly indicate this is the issue:
...
...

at AttributeEditorXML.Instance.SaveAsRelicGameDataBinary(String pathName, Boolean preview)
at AttributeEditorXML.AttributeOverlay.SaveBinaries(String filePath)
at AttributeEditorXML.Program.Main(String[] args)
Is there any better way to track this down?
Or is a sort of forced refactoring
Anyway, help would be much appreciated.
Thank you as always
