Hi
When I hover over the flux capacitor in the construction, I see the picture and cost, but when I click on it I get a Stream Read Error.

Sounds like the portrait image is missing or corrupted... Try finding the portrait image in the se4/pictures/components directory and opening it up with a program such as IrfanView and saving it again. There's a known issue where portrait images saved with Photoshop can be seen by the game as corrupted...
(You'd think Fyron or SJ or somebody would get around to fixing the imagemod, though... )

yeah, what ekolis said. There are actually a fair number of these. Death Temples and War Temples (both unique finds) do the same thing. There are some others too, but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Speaking of the temples, why are the unique ones temples and the racial ones shrines? I'd think it would be the other way around, given that a temple is usually larger than a shrine, and thus would probably be more powerful in its effect...

No other reason than the stock game called them shrines. And now, if you are a religious race and manage to find a temple, you end up with War/Death/Time/Fate/Nature Monastaries!

Is this one of those errors I have to start the game over completely to correct? Please tell me I won't have to start over!
I ask because I viewed the pics in paint and did a save as to be sure the files were overwritten.
Thanks guys!
What a great mod!

No, you just need to save the image in such a way that normal file headers are inserted. Your savegame is not in peril.

I tried using paint, but that did not seem to work.
I downloaded irfranview and when I save with that, the game works!
