Game won't let me add ship components
« on: September 24, 2011, 08:45:24 AM »
I can get the game running, but when I try to design a ship, I get a series of error messages whenever I add a component.  I don't know if I've installed the game incorrectly, or if there is some file I need to add.  Anyone have any idea what my problem is?

Did you click the "New Ship" button at the bottom first?

Let me go into more detail.  I open the Class menu, where the descriptions of the components are supposed to be, it simply reads Text1.  If I attempt to add a component, I get a series of error messages, First Error 381, then Error 3078 generated by DAO. database, them 5 Error 91 messages.  Any idea of what could be wrong?

There are no pre-defined classes, unless you choose the "design ships" option in the game creation. Otherwise, you need to click "New Ship" each time you want to make a new ship class.

If you can't see the button, choose the reduced-size windows option.
