Hello All,
I cannot get this game to start. It just gives me an error screen after I launch it. Any ideas?

Your log shows a non-fatal warning instead of an error. If you click "no" on a warning popup, FSO will continue running. Warnings only cause a popup with debug builds; if you don't encounter any problems with a release build, you should use it instead.

I kept clicking "no" and tried to run it anyways and there was no luck. Also I thought I had to go into "debug" mode in order to get the freespace open log to update properly? I attached the latest version

Yes, you need the debug build to get the debug log; since your log was only warnings, though, I wasn't sure if you hadn't actually tried running the debug build instead of the release build. Still, this log shows an actual error:
weapons.tbl(line 3270): Warning: Missing quotation marks in string list.
WARNING: "weapons.tbl(line 3270): Warning: Missing quotation marks in string list." at parselo.cpp:331

There's an unclosed quotation mark in weapons.tbl, apparently on line 3270. This is a problem in the mod itself.
