errors messages when launching game - **resolved**

[Hose]

Hi,

Evochron has stopped working for me when using the customisation kit.

I used to play it using the kit without a problem.

when i start the game, an error message appears saying:

** file error: menu8blank. **

I tried deleting the file menu8blank and then the game starts now, but when i try to launch the game it gets to about 98% and then another error comes up saying:

** insufficient cockpit data, no reflection layer found**

Please can anyone help?

I bought the game through steam originally when the problem began.

I have since downloaded the client from here and re-registered to see if that helped but no joy.

I really want to get back on i love this game :-(

It sounds like you're using mods. If so, pull them all out and add them one at a time. When you get to the point where the game crashes, make note of that last mod. Then, to confirm it's that specific mod, pull all mods out again and place the suspect mod in first ... test ... and see if the game still crashes with just that one mod running. If not, leave it in and begin adding, one at a time, to see if the problem is, instead, too many mods.

sounds like you installed the whole kit to the game

it does not work that way.

the kit offers example files, it is not a complete mod you can just "drop in" the game.

Thank you so much for all the help.

I didn't realise the files included in the kit were just templates. After getting rid of those and using just the mods I can happily say I am now up and running again.

Thank again for great support from a great community!
