The problem is the picture that's supposed to appear. It's listed as items/bank, when it should be misc/bank. It kept trying to call up an image, but was looking in the wrong place.

So if you change this line:

GFXP items/bank.png

to this:

GFXP misc/bank.png

that should stop the crashing.

I haven't tested out the fix yet, but I'll report back when I have.

That did indeed fix it.

No more crashes.

Minor Spoiler Alert:

So, I got the two items mentioned above, and combined them, which produces a third item.

There's a block of text that pops up on screen when you do this, and it ends with the word "race".

The new item has essentially parallel text, but ends with "species" instead. As a result of being a couple letters longer, that word gets cut off, so it ends with "unnamed" instead. Just giving you the heads up, in case you want to fix that minor bug as well. Pretty sure if you switch it to "race" instead of "species", it'll fit.

Re: A lurker delurks... with a mod?

In the copy of your mod on my computer, I fixed a handful of bugs: The GFXP line that was causing crashes, and the text overflow on that item, mentioned in the post above.

I also fixed the formatting on the mod banner so it would display correctly. Prior to this alteration, my computer kept returning "ERROR: Can't load image default/graphics/../../../../../DominionB2 Mod/graphics/launcher/banner.bmp", and then not loading your banner. It's a nice banner, and a shame if no one gets to see it.

Having made those minor fixes, I thought they might be useful either to you, or to others who enjoy your excellent mod. Towards that end, here's a link to the bug-fixed version:
