BSOD - AttributeError : PlayOpeningMovies

[Shadowknight1]

I have NO idea why this started happening.  I removed some old, moldy mods that were either not in use or didn't want, but to my knowledge, they have nothing to do with what I'm getting a problem with.  Can anyone help me out here?

check the Previous "Black Screen of Death" Fixes Forum...
the error had been mentioned before, not sure if it will be of assistance to your current situation tho...
that error, tho, is GravityFX related...

[Shadowknight1]

It has been mentioned before, but the solution was to create a folder that I already have.

I tried reinstalling GravityFX and no joy...come on guys.

have you opened , your zzzShipReplacement.py, [in NotePad} and looked at it's contents.

Contents of that PY

from bcdebug import debug
# Defiant <erik@kobmaru.de>

import App
import Foundation
import StaticDefs


def GetBridge(self):
   debug(__name__ + ", GetBridge")
   sBridgeInt = App.g_kConfigMapping.GetIntValue("Unified MainMenu Mod Configuration", "QB start bridge")
   if sBridgeInt == 0:
      # not set yet
      return 'SovereignBridge'
   else:
      return Foundation.bridgeList[sBridgeInt].bridgeString

Foundation.ShipDef.GetBridge = GetBridge

sShipint = App.g_kConfigMapping.GetIntValue("Unified MainMenu Mod Configuration", "QB start ship")
if sShipint == 0:
   # not set yet
   Foundation.MutatorDef.Stock.startShipDef = Foundation.ShipDef.Sovereign
else:
   pNewStartShip = Foundation.shipList[sShipint]
   Foundation.MutatorDef.Stock.startShipDef = pNewStartShip

What Mods (also in which folders, if you can still remember) exactly where you getting rid of before that happened, Shadow?

I removed several Star Wars fighters, the Aegian, the ACMP Akiras, and two Ambassador scripts that had no models.

This was using BCUT.

[JimmyB76]

can you post the entire console log?  should be a text file in the Logs folder...

I'm not sure what exactly to look for Jimmy.  Feel like a complete n00b.  Thanks BC.

Could you try to add the following into zzShipReplacement ( and delete the .pyc file):

import App
import Foundation
import StaticDefs


def GetBridge(self):
   #debug(__name__ + ", GetBridge")
   sBridgeInt = App.g_kConfigMapping.GetIntValue("Unified MainMenu Mod Configuration", "QB start bridge")
   if(sBridgeInt == 0 or sBridgeInt >= len(Foundation.bridgeList)):
      # not set yet
      return 'SovereignBridge'
   else:
      return Foundation.bridgeList[sBridgeInt].bridgeString

Foundation.ShipDef.GetBridge = GetBridge

sShipint = App.g_kConfigMapping.GetIntValue("Unified MainMenu Mod Configuration", "QB start ship")
if (sShipint == 0 or sShipint >= len(Foundation.shipList)):
   # not set yet
   Foundation.MutatorDef.Stock.startShipDef = Foundation.ShipDef.Sovereign
else:
   pNewStartShip = Foundation.shipList[sShipint]
   Foundation.MutatorDef.Stock.startShipDef = pNewStartShip

I actually forgot that you can delete shipsafter a while, when Defiant sent me the changes for KM.
So the ship int this file is pointing to no longer exists in you install.

the logs should be in

scripts/custom/logs

and the logs are dated so it would be the latest one
hope that helps
