Problem with my actor data

My problem is that i cannot open some game files,when i do it says 'failed to load actor data' and it has been bugging me for a time now,i have tried extracting the game and copy and paste actor data from seperate projects but it dont work so could someone help me? i will appriciete it.
 
im not 100% sure about this, but i think theres a way to protect your map files so that other people can't open them. It's a method ppl use to stop others from stealing the game and taking the credit for themselves.
 
Every time I've seen that error, it was due to trying to load a save game that referred to an actor that had been removed from the game, or otherwise by a reference to an actor # that does not, or no longer, exists.
 
I've had that problem when I tried downloading demos.

To fix that, I moved the game file out of its highest (or .zip/.rar) folder.

(Documents/GameFolder.zip/GameFolder/Game,data,etc.)
(copy or cut that folder, then paste in Documents or Downloads--or whatever folder you hold your games in. Worked for me.)
