Calm down, if its the THN title screen chances are you did something wrong and somthings crashing the game, cuz if its a THN it just shows black, it doesnt crash. try using FL scan.

When you say startup screen, are you talking the opening movies, the freelancer splash screen, or the menu screen?

It may sound silly to ask this, but all of the above have been called the startup screen in other posts and will make answerng your question easier.

Did you change anything else than your title screen? sounds like a crash due to saved games to me...

As both FriendlyFire and myself have pointed out in your other thread on this subject, the "startupscreen.tga" needs to be 800 x 600 in size and saved as a 32 bit RGB uncompressed Targa (TGA).

A bad or missing TGA will not cause a crash, a crash when you should be seeing the startup TGA is INI based, bad market, equipment, effect or faction files are just some of the possible reasons your crashing there.

If your still having problems with the TGA then send me your 800 x 600 image and I'll send you a working TGA, address is in my profile.
