HELP!! Jedi Academy "Error" when starting a New Game (Single Player)

[Darth Sion]

Ok,

  So after downloading and installing some mods (one's that I intend on regularly using) in my Gamedata/Base folder. I ran into this error, upon starting or trying to start a new game, in Single Player. (Apologies for the rather bad quality of the image. I had to take the picture on my iPad with the error on-screen).



Now, prior to running into this error.. I did have the "Evolution of Combat III - Remastered" also installed in my JKA directory (the Gamedata folder, I believe). I also know there's been a few people that've reported problems with it. I've since uninstalled the game and deleted my entire LucasArts/Jedi Academy folder from my Hard Drive, restarted and done a fresh install, then added some mods back into my Base folder. However, I've yet to try and run the game again and try to start a new game.

Has anyone else encountered this problem, at any point and have a fix for it or a way to resolve it?
Any help or info would be appreciated.

It's not related to any particular mod, just having a large collection of mods that add NPCs.

There is an NPC limit that the game can handl, as @@Raz0r said. You can either remove some of the NPC files from your mod pk3s or try the following which came up via a quick forum search:

Figures it ends up being Rosh.

It usually ends up being a certain amount of npc mods you have in your base folder.

@, I've had this occur to me once due to having mods installed that had their curly brackets missing in their NPC files. Every NPC in "ext_data/npcs/*.npc" needs to start and end with a curly bracket. Make sure they do. If this is missing somewhere, it can cause the game to get confused and load "too many NPCs" where it's actually loading none past that point while reading the NPC files in.

 

The best way to find the culprit(s) is by a process of elimination. Remove all your mods from the base folder, try the game to make sure it works, then add the mods back in a bunch at a time, and find the faulty bunch, then the culprit PK3(s) in it.
