OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Initial Crash - Red Flag, OOTP resetting default graphics??

joey · 12-01-2008, 12:12 AM

so i've been all over these boards trying to find possible solutions just to get the game started. a couple things were attempted with still getting the same results.

then i attempted to run the game as admin -> still got the "resetting default graphics" message but then got this:

"ADD_FRAMEWORK::startup-unable to find the folder 'database'. Please reinstall Out of the Park Developments"

....and did not receive the usual "ootp9.exe has encountered a problem" message

Prior to this, I've installed/re-installed the game 5-6 times. I'm skeptical as to whether or not it would actually make a difference this time?

There is a large OOTP9 folder in "My Documents" (377MB). Do they belong there? I copied all of those files into the Program Files\OOTP folder in hopes that it could then locate the database, but that was unsuccessful as well.

There's a .txt in the OOTP folder in "My Documents" that seems to contain some of the settings/locations.

Does this look right?
