Some Mods Work, Some Don't.

[arrghmatey32]

I've been playing BTS for a while now, with and without Mods, with no problems.

Yesterday I downloaded Marnzmod and tried to play.The Mod loaded up just fine, but every time I tried to start a game, the bar would get to around "Init Graphics" and then the game would crash. I figured that it was just a problem with the mod, and after trying to get it to work for hours I decided to cut my losses.

I then tried to play Amra Advanced instead, but I got the exact same problem.

The report given by Vista is this:

I'm running on Vista, but haven't had any previous problems. My other Mods (Such as Extra, FfH2) work just fine, as does regular BTS.

In Marnzmod, none of the new units would show up in the Civilopedia, I'm not sure if that has to do with anything.

I also get the same error when running different mods. No problem with BTS 3.17 w/out mods. Any help would be appreciated.

There's your problem. Get XP like I eventually did and it should work fine.

Marnzmod and AmraAdvanced are older mods that probably aren't updated to work with BTS 3.17 (just DLL) or 3.13 and 3.17 (if it only uses python). Missing unit graphics in the Civlopedia are a sure sign of this, not to mention Extra and FFH - both of which has had patch releases in the past month or so - work fine.

You either have to roll back to whichever older version of BTS they were made for or play the more recent mods.
