Game crashes when mod is enabled

January 11, 2009 10:05:57 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

I made a mod that increases the supply limit and cap ship limit by double and the ship speed by quadruple. I simply changed the files provided in Forge Tools and put them in the mod folder as follows:  C:/yadda yadda/mods/Quad Ships/gameinfo

 

Now, I can find the Quad Ship folder in SINS under the mod section but when I enable it the game crashes.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I reset everything to default and just changed

 

 

shipPhysicsSpeedData-Fast

shipLinearMaxSpeedGameSpeedScalar 2.0

shipLinearAccelerationGameSpeedScalar 2.0

shipLinearDecelerationGameSpeedScalar 2.0

 from
shipPhysicsSpeedData-Fast
shipLinearMaxSpeedGameSpeedScalar 0.6
shipLinearAccelerationGameSpeedScalar 0.6
shipLinearDecelerationGameSpeedScalar 0.6
And it still crashes.

Are you playing with the Entrenchment expansion?

 

If so you'll need to download the .9 beta game info files or convert the file from the sins install folder to text and mod it. The files from the forge tools don't work with it.

Open your user.setting file located in the \Settings folder in that path, scroll to the bottom and set showErrors to TRUE. Then try loading the mod and it will spit out the line number and a short blurp on the error. Post it here, please
