Default Help with Dominions error

I am trying to start up the megagame. It is late, and I am gradually descending into insanity. Every time I try, I get this error:

N�got gick fel!
fg: bad u
N�got gick fel!
fg: bad u
Aborted

Does anyone know what this means?

Many thanks! Please save me!

Could the "bad u" be the old bad unit number error?
Have you tried to start the game without mods just to see if it might be a mod typo causing you grief?

Just some ideas. I don't believe that I have ever seen an error in dom quite like those.

Thanks for the response Ballbarian.

I just tried with no mods, but had the same problem.

Hmm, I'm actually thinking now something fundamental has gone wrong with my Dominions. I can't even create a 2-player network game on Silent Seas now with no mods. Aaaargh!

Right. Now I cannot create _any game_. Even single player with no mods on silent seas. I get:

Nagot gick fel!
wrong gnumber
Nagot gick fel!
wrong gnumber
Aborted

I cry.

This is quite impressive. It seems fate knew I was within a couple of minutes of finally starting the game, and struck down my copy of Dominions.

Try removing all your mods from the MOD folder.

I could not use the unit_view map because it was partially still using a the SC_Stadium MOD even tho it wasn't listed.

Once I moved all files from the MOD folder it started working correctly.

Thanks NTJedi. I just tried that, but no luck.

I have just remembered that an additional patch came out for linux to fix some network bug. So I came right back into linux to try that out. When starting a multiplayer game I start it as a network game you see, with all the pretenders already present. Best way to do it.

Doesn't explain why I can't even start single player games now though. Very odd.

I am not familiar with the linux environment, but were this a windows install of dominions, I would rename the folder and reinstall followed by the most recent patch. Maybe that would get you back on track?

I have just booted into Windows. My copy of Dominions here thankfully still works. But I got the same fg error.

I think I will just have to give up and go to bed. Very frustrating.

Thanks very much guys for your help. I'm sure it'll be one of those things that comes together once you come back fresh.
