Hi there. I installed Blue Planet from the complete executable installer but it won't run. I would appreciate if someone could help me out, I don't know much about code.
This is the error I get. Thanks!

bp-shp.tbm(line 222):
Error: Required token = [#End], [$Subsystem:], [$Name], or [$Template], found [$Glowpoint overrides: ( "red_glow_10:1,2" )].

BP isn't compatible with 3.6.18.  Get a build from this thread:

Or use the build that came with the complete installer. The installation instructions have that step for a reason!  ;)

Is that a good idea? :confused:

Select the 3.6.17 (BP).exe in the basic tab of the launcher.

The build that comes with the Blue Planet installer has some serious bugs, including one that can destroy your pilot file. Instead, use the build found here (which is now version 3.6.19). (And if that doesn't work, follow Black Wolf's link above.)

Great, that fixed it! Thanks a lot guys.

One quick question though since I lost my campaign progression. Is there a way to skip missions?  I can't get the normal method to work. "skipmemymissionyo" and typing up "Delenda Est" when prompted. I'm not sure if the actual name for the mission is different somehow, or if that cheat only works for the FS2 campaign.

 
You need to type in the actual name of the mission file in the mod file structure. Use a VP viewer to work out what the filename is.
