Initiating DocGen crashes server.

Initiating [DocGen crashes server. This happens before and after installing VNc. Error stays the same:

If you are using the latest ServUO with the new BOD system, it will crash every time. Docs.cs isn't set up with the new BODs, just the original 2. It needs all of the new BODs w/ rewards added in to work.

Ah, excellent.

Thank you for the information!

Years ago a cool dood named dat99 posted something about this after releasing some popular systems....

Checking my notes I see this:

8. When I use the [docgen command my shard crash, what can I do?

• 
  There isn't a permenant fix for the [docgen crash at this time because I don't have the time to look into it and found a good fix.
  There is a small workaround that you can do as follows:
  • 
    If you REALY need the [docgen then you can replace this line in the docs.cs file:
    • 
      rewards[16 + CraftResources.GetIndex( rkit.Resource )] = true;
    with this line:
    • 
      try { rewards[16 + CraftResources.GetIndex( rkit.Resource )] = true; } catch {}

This comes from his old webpage located here:

Hope this is some help.
