Hi there. I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem. I'm having trouble loading a few of the fixed cos files from the Creatures Heaven website. This one here. I'd contact the author but I can't find any details and I'm not even sure they're still around.

The ones I had trouble with were woodpigeon2, medicine maker, butterfly and creaturebreeding. All the other files loaded fine.

Here are the errors pulled out of the log file.

EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
The thread attempted to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access.
Attempt was to read from address 0xFFFFFFFC


The last one comes from creaturebreeding.

The game is listed as version 1.162 and it's running on Windows XP.

Any help is appreciated, because while it's not urgent, I'd really like to have these in my world. Thanks!

What's happening here is that these .cos files are using DS-only CAOs commands when you're trying to run a C3-standalone world. Vampess apparently made the .cos files under the assumption that no one played C3 standalone and thus would use only DS docked (where this would be a non-issue).

Unfortunately, if you don't know your CAOs the only way to get around this is to replace the offending .cos files with their default equivalents. You could try contacting Vampess about this, but she hasn't been around for a long time.

I know some CAOS, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing something like this. I'll replace the medicine vendor, and just leave the butterflies and the pigeons out for now. They're not that exciting really. Thanks for the info!

the easyest way to fix this problem, is to replace the creatures 3 "engine.exe" with the Dockingstation "engine.exe".
(Dont vorget to backup!!!)

That's a great idea. I am gonna try this but I have to download Docking Station first.

I tried it but unfortunately it didn't work. Something about a catalogue file.
