Does flserver actually crash, or does it just display that error? Many times the getarch errors don't actually cause crashes, but sometimes they do.

That hashcode is unknown, so it must be for an archetype name in your mod (it's not in "vanilla" freelancer).

it detects the error almost as soon as i can get to the report and then a little bit later it says it must close FLServer. I have checked and it also crashes freelancer at the startup after the beginning intro. I am new to most of this. All i have really done is made factions before and a few maps with FLExplorer. As far as the Archetypes go, i have know idea what it is except that some are 3db pictures for things like icons. Otherwise i am at a loss.

Wow, with the in depth description of what you did to any of the 2000 ini files means that i can help you for sure.........

Erm, thats sarcasm. Posting "I made a mod with new faction and everything crashes" will get no help, as its like saying "I put a needle in a haystack and have lost it" - what do you want us to do? We can't help search unless you tell us what parts you were routing around in, and what you did in those parts too! Details!!!!

I can give the details but please save the sarcasm. I know you work hard on all this stuff but these are things i am having problems with and i atleast have the right to ask. I found out what the only two files could have been and this is what i put in them:

goods.ini

[Good
nickname = commodity_DES_Flight_Recorder
msg_id_prefix = gcs_gen_commodity_DES_Flight_Recorder
equipment = commodity_DES_Flight_Recorder
category = commodity
price = 10000

good_sell_price = 1.000000
bad_buy_price = 1.000000
bad_sell_price = 1.000000
good_buy_price = 1.000000
shop_archetype = Equipment\models\commodities\nn_icons\cwire_machines_2.3db

Well it helps if the names match up Change "equipment = DES_Flight_Recorder" to "equipment = commodity_DES_Flight_Recorder" and it should (hopefully) work.

Also know that your buy and sell price are the same. So if you buy this commodity at a certain location it's also the best place to sell it, which is a bit weird after all. (unless you are buying it at 0.8 of the value and you can sell it at another place for 1.2 of the value) But the good/bad buy and good/bad sell price are just for the circles and squares behind the commodity to tell you if this is a good place to buy or sell it.

But that's not the cause of your crash. The name problem like Accushot said should help you out.

2570584714 = commodity_DES_Flight_Recorder

Sort of what Accushot said, but I'm sure he meant to say to change the nickname in select_equp.ini to "commodity_DES_Flight_Recorder".

If that sarcasm made it so that in future you don't waste time with posts that can get no aid, compared to the last one you made that did.............then i will certainly NOT save the sarcasm......and you should be glad i didn't :p

about the buy and sell prices being the same, i didnt really give it much thought, i just wrote something down because this is only going to be able to be found by blowing up the enemy, then the person just goes and sells it at the base. There is no other use for it.

Then don't worry about buy sell prices. Its for that little colored icon that shows good buy/sell prices - ya know, green = good, red = bad. If it aint for trading, then it don't matter.

However, it can add some "dynamic" if it costs a stack in the inner worlds (liberty etc), but u can get it from pirate bases in the edge worlds alot cheaper etc
