Status: offline 		I get this massage when I try to start a new game! something happened when I was putting from Star Trek TRSE mod to normal game. I have Distant Worlds: Return of the Shakturi v1.5.

This is the massage:

The Following exeception occured in the DataGridView:

System.ArgumentException: DataGridViewComboBoxCell value is not valid.

To replace this default dialog please handle the DataError event.

I don't know where it is and my computer can't find it in search.

I tried to reinstall the game but didn't work and after the install of both the game and exspansion the Shakturi expansion doesn't work but still is installed?!?

If anyone knows what to do please help me!

Let us know where it goes from there.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Looks like the game cannot find a critical asset -- picture file obviously.
And you say this latest time you installed the game, it did not work!
Did it blow up when your tried to load the mod?

Status: offline 		No the Mod works perfectly! I even played on it for a while. It might be that the mod interupts with it somehow? But in the first place the mod wasn't in the game folder right after installasion haha it's wierd and I can't understand this problem.

Status: offline 		Hi simmi90

Have you updated your version of ROTS? The latest version is 1.5.0.8

If you have the latest version and you still encounter this problem, then the following steps may fix this issue for you.

Go to this folder on your computer (assuming Windows Vista/7 and the latest version of DW ROTS):

C:\Users\[YOURUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Code Force Limited\Distant Worlds\1.5.0.8\

Delete the following two files from that folder and restart ROTS: automationPrefs, defaultOptions

Thanks
Elliot
