Title: Error creating Pilot
Post by: Dirtyratz on April 13, 2007, 09:30:25 pm

I just downloaded and installed Prologue 1.0 and all seemed to install without a hitch but when I run it and try to create my pilot i get the following error

Error: Couldn't load pilot file, bailing
File:J:\src\cvs\fs2_open_3_6_9.final\code\MenuUI\PlayerMenu.cpp
Line: 857
[This filename points to the location of a file on the computer that built this executable]

Call stack:
------------------------------------------------------------------
    kernel32.dll 7c816fd7()
------------------------------------------------------------------


Any idea as to what is happening here.

Vids look great so Im really looking foward to trying this out.

Thanks

Someone else had this problem, the solution was to create a folder called data in your main TBP directory, and then create a folder called players under that... then try it again.

Check if you have ../data/players directory.. if you haven't got it.. create it and try again.

Though in this its probably better for him to place the new directories under the WCS directory :D
