Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has had a similair problem. I have been playing for sometime using many of the B5 ships with no problems, today I downloaded a few more and now no matter which extras I have on I get a crash to desktop. I can load a saved game fine, the problem occurs when I click on the "Hanger" option in-game (I can read communications, look at trades and anything else just fine). The second I click "Hanger" I crash to desktop.

does this happen when u have NO mods selected? what ship is the hangar selector on when u load? is it a ship replaced by a mod? if so u need to activate the mod u had active when u saved the game, go to the hangar, select one of the ships that's not changed, then re-save.

Sounds like the Problem Crunch had. Have a look at this (http://forums.firstones.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4937) thread.

Ok, maybe that is the problem, I was playing using the Thunderbolt as the comsec when I saved so does that mean I have to have that ship selected when I load? That makes sense actually, perfect sense. I was trying to use different ships. So is there any way to change ships after you've saved a game or are you stuck with that one? BTW the B5 station looks f-ing GREAT as the replacement for Lucrecia's base!

Great, thanks. BTW you guys have done some FANTASTIC work. These ships look incredible, I paint miniatures for the B5 WARS game and the organic looking ships such as the Minbari and Vorlon are a pain in the ass to paint (and I've been painting figures for over 20 years), I cannot imagine how difficult they must be to make for this game but they all look incredible. These mods look better then a LOT of retail games look. It is too bad you guys can't get hired by a major developer to make a full B5 game but since the show is long over I doubt that will happen. Anyway a BIG hats off to everyone who has worked so hard to make these mods, all of us B5 fans owe you a HUGE debt of gratitude.
