Errors with invisible player and crashing pause menu

[Haradion]

Hello there!
I have been working on a Pokémon Essentials game, and have ran into some bother. IIn my attempt to add a new pokémon, Chespin, I followed a Youtube tutorial, but must have done something wrong, because when I added the Pokémon, a crash was caused. The error log didn't make any sense, so I removed the changes, and reloaded it.

And now the game does some weird stuff.

I can't see my avatar, I am invisible. And if I try to enter a building, I get a crash and this error:

---------------------------
Pokemon Shadow Black
---------------------------
Exception: TypeError

Message: cannot convert Fixnum into String

PokemonField:1505:in `+'

and If I press C, I get a crash and this error:

I am quite worried, because I removed the changes, but the crash is still going.

Has anyone ever had a similar crash?

I'm not familiar with Pokemon Essentials specifically, but it's very likely that you either didn't remove everything, or removed something you shouldn't have.

Find the code that is running when the crashes happen, check out any functions or variables that section of code relies on... the usual stuff. Specifically, I'd look at all functions and variables related to displaying your avatar, then look at code that affects your avatar in general and displaying in general.

Or just start again from your last stable build. You did create a back-up or something before doing all this, right? Right?

Did you try doing a new game instead of using continue? (I know this sounds weird but this usually fixes a lot of problems strangely)

 

[Haradion]

Yeah, loading new game doesn't help. However it doesn't load the into screen... Or give the option of starting a new game... I think I might have accidently changed something in the script as to where he starts, without meaning too. However I am a very poor scripter... I can't figure out where or what has changed...

Look at the below post, that would be the answer to your problem.

You have changed the player's starting position. This position should be in the Intro map, which is where the Professor's lecture is given. See also the wiki, which states that there are two things that MUST be done in the lecture (or rather, at the start of the game) - these things define the player character, and without them the player will be invisible and cause both of your errors.
