No, your going to have to read the other sticky (those are the threads with "sticky" before them, such as this one) called: "How to detect and fix problematic ship plugins"

Known problem, posted fixes for that a couple of times.

Basicly, add an empty py file called ATP_Config (ATP_Config.py) and put it in scripts/Custom/AdvancedTechnologies/Data/

Just an empty file, and make sure it's extension is py, not txt or whatever.

Do you have the latest QBa?

Also, if you have Engineering, then upgrade to QuickBattle Autostart (QBa for short).

Odd, if you consider the time where it's called, it shouldn't be possible for App.TacticalControlWindow_GetTacticalControlWindow() to return None...

I've asked Defiant about this, and I'm hoping a reply soon.

Doesn't think that QBA is the root of the problem.
Please turn off the QBA Mutator, restart BC and get a new console screenshot.

1st Did you modify the scripts in anyway. Any slight modification needs to be reported
2nd list of mods installed, scripts only
3rd Try getting rid of ATP 1 which I can see you have installed.
4th try reinstalling Foundation

No and no.

1) No.
2) Does that include the various additional ships, etc.?
3) I've deactivated the mutator, do I need to completely remove the files?
4) Hasn't worked.

/ If it's any help, the quick battle loads fine when none of the Mutators are active.

1. OK then.
2. All scripting modifications as I mentioned above, so no ships only scripts. And no ship plugins either.
3. Remove them phisically from the installation, if they remain they still can cause trouble
4. OK, try step 3

@ MLeo he has that ATP 1 For NanoFX mod not original ATP1... I'm not sure actually what's new in that but many people reported problems with it.

I have (running on BC 1.1):


MVAM Infinite
QBa .91
Skinning and Damaging Tool
Nano FX 2 [BETA]
ATP1 for Nano FX 2 [BETA]
Submenu v.3
ElminstersCommonWeaponsPackV2

That's them all (almost certainly).

Based on that, are there any specific ones you want me to remove, or shall I remove them all?

Other mods should be compatible, remove the ATP 1 for NanoFX. ATP 1 by itself is way obsolete.

Is there any easy way to remove it or do I have to manually remove each and every file?

If the mod isn't in BCMP format then you have to uninstall it manually.

And what exactly does it say? The BSOD that is.

One of the most common problem people can get is when they install it and use the non .Net BCMI.

The BSOD will mention in that case FoundationTriggers now, as mentioned in the FAQ thread, you can fix this by creating an empty file, ending with .py (no extra extension) called FoundationTriggers (full out: FoundationTriggers.py) and put it in your scripts directory.

Go to your scripts/Custom directory and make sure it's spelled Ships and that it contains an __init__.py(c) file.
