I have a problem with MGEXE

[theboss116472]

So i have this issue when selecting the resolution all i get is this when i click, Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

So what does this mean and what can i do to fix this?

Please leave anything that might help and thank you for your time.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

<configuration>

<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Did you launch Morrowind before trying with MGE XE (which I assume is what you're using), you need to do that to set the screen resolution in the Registry?

 

Are you using the latest version of MGE XE released a week or so ago? If you're using MGE then swap to MGE XE.

[theboss116472]

So i do have the newest MGE XE, but when i opened morrowind to the home screen and closed it then open up MGE XE again i got the same response.

[Dragon32]

Hrm, weird.

 

The actual error refers to "ResolutionForm" which I assume is the bit of MGE XE where you set your screen resolution.

 

Try renaming

Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind\d3d8.dll

to

Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind\d3d8.dll.REN

 

Then start Morrowind to main title, set a screen resolution of 640x480, exit.

 

Rename the .dll back and try MGE XE again

 

If that still doesn't work then I'd suggest posting in the MGE XE discussion thread.

[leonardo2]

Two questions.

 

1. Did you first launch Morrowind before installing MGE-XE?

 

2. When launching MGEXEgui.exe, did you run the MGEXEgui.exe or did you use the MGE-XE shortcut?

 

Also, keep in mind that you probably need to configure MGE-XE before launching Morrowind a second time.

...interesting is that it worked perfect. The only thing I did recently is that I bought a new SSD and I did copy the entire partition with the OS to the new one, all is working flawlessly except Morrowind MGEXE.


UPDATE:

Managed to fix this :) just running MGEXEgui.exe as Administrator did the trick :)

Good for you. :)

 

Next time you have an issue with MGE-XE then try my quick guide for either MGE or MGE-XE.
