Occasionally, when I select a new ship from the ship selection screen, when the credits roll, I get the message: "Transcendence has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." It's not from the program itself, it's from Windows. Please help.

Mod List
Mine
Commenwealth with Custom Ships
Commenwealth Fleet with Custom Ships
Point Juno with Custom Ships
Osaka NPC Ships
Player Ships Extended
Battle Arena Wingman
Aeonic
Stalwart
Starlight
Praetorian
Molotok
Bobby
UG Wingmen v2.3
Prophet
Merchant Emporium
PKoden
NoDockNavBeacons

I believe that's all of them.

I didn't try all of them, but it happened on the vanilla ships and the custom ships.

I think it has something to do with that wingmen battle arena mod. Try renaming it to filename.xmlN (which makes Transcendence overlook it) and see if the problem persists.

My theory is that Transcendence looks in that mod and then tries to put one of the ships that are in it on the arena screen, sees something it doesn't like, realizes that George didn't tell it what to do in such a case, and panics. Windows sees it panicking and does its job, protecting all your other processes.

Right click, rename?

You might have to turn on "display file extensions for known file types". I suggest you do that anyway, so you don't get "Sexah pr0n.jpg.exe" type things. And also so you can tell what you're looking at when you're dissecting various things.

I recommend EVERYONE adopts disabling by "_" in front of the directory or file name, as that is also the method TMU uses, and Transcendence is meant to use.

Also, nice avatar bobby, going to release that ship on xelerus?

rename your extensions directory to "_extensions" and try again

Try each mod one at a time, disabling all but one of them at a time to see which is causing it.
(You will need to re-enable you extensions by removing the "_" - that was just to see if you transcendence binary was corrupted or some external problem was causing the crash)

I recommend using the latest version of TMU to do this; it makes things MUCH faster

I believe I have found the problem. The one causing Transcendence to freak is the Commenwealth with Custom Ships mod. The current version only has the tbCommDefenders, tbCommEliteDefenders, tbCommPrivateCrafts & tbCommTraffic. With modifications of course. Do you think adding the stations would fix it?
