Fable Explorer on Windows 7
http://fabletlcmod.com/forum/index.phpindex.php?t=rview&goto=65470&th=9043#msg_65470
I downloaded this installer here: http://fabletlcmod.com/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=1330& ;amp ;start=0&
and when I run FableExplorer.exe, I get this error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. From :as FableExplorer.frmMain.Main()"
I search these forums, but couldn't find an answer. Does anyone have any experience with this?
EDIT: Forgot to mention I have .NET framework 4.0, Direct X11 and MSVC++ 2005 (as well as 2008, and 2010)
Also, My game is not installed in the default path. It is the steam version, and is in K:\Steam\steamapps\common\fable the lost chapters, while FE is in K:\fable modding]]>LimblessNick2011-12-20T20:47:33-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

The explorers are set by default to look for your Fable game files in a certain place. There is no configuration file with the regular Fable Explorer to change this. However, there is one with the Shadownet version available on the forum here. In the config file for the explorer (config.xml), change the following lines of code:
Replace this with the location of your Fable game files. For me, this was C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\fable the lost chapters\
And BOOM! It runs. Don't worry about fiddling with the registry path. I did initially only to find that even the Steam version creates the same registry path entry as the non-Steam version under Microsoft\\Microsoft Games
Now I haven't actually modded anything into the game with the explorer, but everything loads up fine. I'll update once I've popped something into the game successfully.
UPDATE: Just used the ShadowNet version to remove all my scars and it worked!]]>InternetSavior2011-12-23T05:48:22-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

Now I seem to be having an issue where it stays showing just the splash screen, and I can't do anything. I believe I read something about an error message being hidden behind the splash page. I am going to look to see if I can fix this issue now.
EDIT: Disregard that part about the error, it is working now. I didn't type a "\" at the end of my path in the .xml
Thanks, you truly are an internet savior!]]>LimblessNick2011-12-23T19:05:25-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

Hello InternetSavior, I've been trying to find some info on a Fabel TLC steam version. I have the same problem as the OP, however I am at the config.xml and cannot change the Use Registry portion or anything for that matter. I can't delete the text to say "YES". How would I go about changing this?
Scroll down, you're almost there, it's a bit hard to find.]]>Zyreq2011-12-25T08:54:04-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

Not sure what you mean by just scrolling down... I looked up the file "config.xml" and its letting me view it but not allowing me to change anything.
@Zyreq
Running as administrator just gives me this message:
Object reference not set toa an instance of an object
From: at FableExplorer.frmMain.Main()
I'm using a WinRAR to see the files. I know I am repeating myself but how do I change the code?]]>youchasechickens2011-12-25T17:16:58-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

Err, when I try to save it through notepad it says Access Denied. How do I bypass this?
Either move the file from Program Files and edit that file and paste it back, or run notepad as administrator.]]>Noctus2011-12-25T23:19:03-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

Did you actually extract the files, or are you just looking at them in winRAR?]]>LimblessNick2011-12-26T02:31:51-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

When I try to load an fmp file it gives me an Error Loading FMP: Object reference not set to an instance of object.

btw does the thumbnail of the fmp look like a blank sheet of paper?
Yes, that means it doesn't have an installed program assigned to the filetype. Don't worry about that, just load it in the way I said.

And I heard another member talk about needing to download through Firefox (is this really necessary?)
Was the .zip you downloaded empty? If not, no, the download worked and Firefox won't be necessary.]]>Noctus2011-12-26T04:09:18-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

Downloaded three "non-profanity" versions of Fable Explorer before finally getting the shadownet version which lets you edit where the game is installed. Every single FMP I try to load gives me the object reference error. Awesome.
Nobody knows what that error means, it seems, which is just...ugh. Who made this thing? Don't they know? Is there no other way to install fmp files?]]>FuzzyLogic2011-12-29T23:57:11-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7

So. Nobody has any idea, then? That's greeeeeeaaaaaaat.
I'm mainly a Windows 7 64bit FE user. Just follow the tutorials and use the main FE release and you should be fine. It has been countless times that people skip certain pieces from the tutorials or guides and result in such incidents.]]>DarkONI2012-01-03T20:21:46-00:00Re: Fable Explorer on Windows 7
