Title: When I open up the F9 menu my game crashes.
Post by: C4lv1n on December 04, 2010, 08:51:31 PM
It show several errors:

Code: [Select]
Error in cboControlRace
Error 76 was generated by Aurora
Path not found: Planetjepg\ha3.jpg
Please report blady blady blagh
I click the "OK" button 10 or 11 times and I get. . .
Code: [Select]
Error 76 was generated by Aurora
Path not found: Planetjepg\b13.jpg
Please report blady blady blagh
I have to click through that 3 times, and then it says runtime error 76 and I hit 'ok' and it dies.

From what it's saying it looks like it's missing some files, where do I get these files? Or is it something else.

Is this a new install, I know this problem as I had it

You did not unzip the content zip file in the setup folder area which brings in all the planets, aliens pic and other things. Please reread the install instructions again closely.

Or you added your own pics and it is missing certain pics to create system, make sure you just make the jpgs it asks for in the planets folder.

That's not a very good way to do installation, what's the point of the install wizard if you have to do the rest yourself?

The install has evolved over time as has Aurora. Steve keeps saying he'll make a new complete install but gets sidetracked... ;)

I never going to argue about the install process, when I had hours upon hours of delight, it is has hurt the back pocket either.
