Question about deleting lines in config files.

[jjanmarine3]

When downloading assets to earlier versions there are often errors like 'tag bogie 1 & 2 not allowed in a container' etc and this stops the asset from working ( amongst other more difficult to fix errors ) .
Then one goes and edits , delete the offending lines and commits the assets , and walla ! sometimes the assets appear...but alas..sometimes without the bogies....which perhaps makes sense, because I did delete them after all...
My question is now is , does one now have to go roam and find suitable bogies from other assets , copy them to the spaces you have left open in the config files , and if so, what is the buzz with the kuids in the kuid lists.
If I have this all mixed up and through each other please straighten me out ..

If you are having difficulties with config editing, you may find PEV/andi06's AssetX tool helpful. That can be downloaded from http://members.optusnet.com.au/~villaump/pevsoft.htm, with the supporting scripts available from http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/index.php5/AssetX_Scripts.

Clone the asset first then edit that. If ok alter the original to suit.
Re the bogie tags, find an asset without the moans and use that wording (if any).
