Title: Model Property Editor Crash
Post by: CDR_Daxian on November 25, 2010, 08:09:24 PM
Please help, i am a newb in a tough situation, i asked a question, it was the thread "py files" now i have MPE, and every time i load a ship script, the darn App crashes for absolutely no good reason, almost as if it has a grudge on me. at first i thought it was a problem with the directory, but i got both right, now i don't know what to do, all help is greately appreciated.

sorry for this newbiness, i'm not very good when it comes to 'stubborn programs'  :facepalm: :hithead:

first, welcome.

second.   to keep MPE from crashing like that, you have to load the CORRECT py.  I still make this goof, myself.  there are two scripts with the exact same name, usually. the "ship" script (which tells the game that a ship exists), and the actuall ship's hardpoint

the one you want will usually be in Scripts ->Ships ->hardpoints.  the one in straight scripts/ships is the "ship" script, not the one you wanna use.

someone should be along shortly to give a better explination.

So let me see if I get this right, you load up a nif file then as soon as you load the py script the app crashes?

Is your goal to tweak the HP, change strength of some weapons etc?

Have you looked at the MPE , 'Options' settings?
