plz check link for the error

don't know - is this error coming up every time you start?

maybe - yesterday you installed the game with immediately getting start?

what happens after clicking ok - does the game run

please try to start the game now with "run as administrator" - this solves some problems http://bote-forum.square7.ch/wiki/index ... s-Probleme

when clicking ok, the errors keeps getting back. also running as admin doesnt solve the problem

did install it on a second pc and also on the second pc it only runs fine the first time. The second time it is giving me the same errors. the strang ething is, that yesterday i did exit the game several times and it worked fine afterwards.

Did you change Settings? Please reduce Minor Density (in Game Settings, Standard is 35) - please max 60-65%

The game first fills in all minor races and at last kills the minor races that won't be needed in the game.
If there isn't enough place or enough planets to install a race I think it's the error.

You also can do the enter key. If the last race is done, the game starts regular

adjusting the minor density solved the problem, thanks.
Can you explain this error? Cant the game work with the minor density slider to the right??

I cant explain it 100%...SirP could do - dont know witch time he's online next

I posted SirP answer at (german) http://bote-forum.square7.ch/wiki/index ... _minorrace

my short english translation:

we have around 140 minor races, galaxy size is 30x20 = 600 sectors. at the moment minors are distributed starting top left, first completing line 1...going to down right. If there isn't a minor race left to fill the next system, the error appears. The major race down right has a disadvantage

so best don't set minor density more than 60%, and if it appears, stay on enter key...
