Black Screen of Death (w\pop-up)

Groundblizzard · 07-10-2006, 06:28 PM

This is a user-error that I've managed to create, but I doubt I'm on the only one whose done this (I hope...)

I went to put in custom logos. I batch changed them from jpg to png by using Paintshop Pro. I renamed them accordingly - Team1.jpg -> My_Team.png and placed them in the league's data's html's image folder.

When I started the game I get the games window, all black, and a pop-up error message reading:

APP_framework::startup - unable to move down into logos directory and then spins with the only the black screen showing and I can't open or shut anything. I can force a shut down, and even then my machine is slowed down something horribly as the CPU runs at 100%.

I evidently futzed with something that I didn't know I did.

Any help on cleaning this up would be appreciated.

Thanks,

GB

Problem solved.

I had the logos folder nested inside another folder with an altered name - re. mistyped.

See, I knew if we left you to your devices long enough, you'd figure it out.
