Help Forum Docking station trouble. It hates me...    youkaihybrid26      10/16/2013 I have no clue what I did. I as usual installed an agent and then docking station decided to stop working. Every time I try to create a new game it says example one: .\Bootstrap\010 Docking Station\CAOS.AS.sherbertglider.cos Failed to find safe location (12430.000000, 9564.000000) ... s name "sex" "male" {@}mvsf rand 10369 12618 rand 930 ... Windows NT/2000 5.1 build 2600 (Service Pack 2) OriginalDisplay DirectX (netbabel 148) Wed Oct 16 15:47:26 2013 - jessie - 2.286 b195 I just want it to work... I've tried everything, uninstalling and downloading again. I've tried removing all my agents. The old games work, I just can't create anything else. Just your neighborhood Youkai dropping by =)   Jessica     10/16/2013 The problem seems to be in reference to a .cos file. You should be able to find these sorts of files in the location shown (\Bootstrap\010 Docking Station). Try removing the offending one (CAOS.AS.sherbertglider.cos) or moving it to the Creatures 3 bootstrap folder. Hope this helps you out! I've had this issue before, and was always heartbroken when I thought it couldn't be fixed. Hopefully you'll have your game up and running again soon! Discover Albia   youkaihybrid26   10/16/2013 The only thing is all the ones that are offending the system are there in bootstrap. I found 1 .c16 files in the .cos file. Deleted it but it didn't fix anything. Dx If I deleted all sadly I'd have no files in bootstrap. Thank you for your help Jessica! =D xD I might just have to keep reusing worlds for my new projects. Just your neighborhood Youkai dropping by =)   Malkin Manager     10/16/2013 The "CAOS.AS.sherbertglider.cos" file is from an old, testing version of Aquatilis Caverna Room 2. I would suggest that you delete that file, let us know about any other cos files that are causing you grief, and get the most recent version of the metaroom, which is "aquatilis2.rar". My TCR Norns   youkaihybrid26   10/20/2013 Well we made some progress. I was stupid before I read this and deleted everything from DS thinking I could re-download everything new. So I put everything back in docking station and got closer to getting it to work. I'm just going to make a list of files I'm having issues with. Thank you for helping me even thought I'm kind of a loon. x) After getting through this list I got into docking station. (Me:Hooray!) Then I noticed I started in the norn terrarium, the keys which are usually unlocked for docking station are present. I find the docking station area and some of the items we normally start up with are gone. I just see trees and one peanut dispenser. knowledgestone.cos lemon pod.cos lift ca linkers.cos lift_cutaway.cos lilyplant.cos magic words clone.cos message centre.cos mini empathic vendor.cos musicola.cos nav lift.cos new keyboard handler.cos new_ds_fav_places.cos object placement.cos portable teleporter.cos power to the shee starship.cos random user contact.cos reminder_to_purchase.cos robot toy.cos scenery.cos snotrock.cos stinger pod.cos system notification.cos tooltips.cos training dummy (2).cos trapper (2).cos tuba.cos warning icons.cos waterspouts.cos workshop liftmask.cos workshop screen (2).cos z_DS agent smells.cos z_DS creaturesAffectingAnimals.cos zz mesa light and heat.cos zzz_click_to_go_online.cos zzz_gamestart_login (2).cos zzzy_CheckCreatureDropScript.cos zzzz_CreatureHasBeenDropped.cos dsbuild 195\reinject_updated_agents.cos Just your neighborhood Youkai dropping by =)   Jessica     10/20/2013 I believe the knowledgestone.cos is supposed to be in the Creatures 3 bootstrap folder: Not in the DS bootstrap folder. Mine is named slightly differently (Knowledge Stones.cos) so maybe this is something for a DS agent. Note that I've had these sorts of issues before, and the issue usually lies with the first offending .cos file. Most of the others are for DS, although I don't recognize a few. See if moving that file works! Discover Albia   youkaihybrid26   10/20/2013 It worked a bit, but the pop ups are still coming up. On the plus side I can get into the game. There will just be a few things missing till everything gets fixed. =) Just your neighborhood Youkai dropping by =)
