That's usually caused by having extra copies of the zzz*.saf files in subfolders under either of your MX Simulator folders. The only zzz*.saf files should be in the install folder which defaults to "C:\Program Files (x86)\MX Simulator". If you find any others remove them.

i found a file named zzzttestzz.saf, could that be causing this problem?

You don't need that file, but if it's in the main install folder it shouldn't cause problems either.

I still cant figure out what my problem is, and you were right, removing the text saf didn't work. Here's a list of everything that is in my Mx Simulator folder.
zzzz.saf
zzzy.saf
sx2011.saf (I'm guessing this came with the game?)
zzzt.saf
zzzu.saf
zzzx.saf
then there is the mx.exe and all the old snapshot versions (6 in total)
zzzv.saf
uninstall.exe
credits.txt
zzzw.saf

Thanks for helping by the way.

You're missing zzzs.saf. If you have a recent snapshot installed you need 1.10 installed as well.

You have to install in the same folder that you have version 1.9 installed in. The default is "C:\Program Files (x86)\MX Simulator".

If you have all the files you probably have an extra zzz*.saf file somewhere. As an example, it you have a sub-folder with zzzz.saf in it, the game will find that and use the older files from it instead of the newer files from zzzs/t/u etc. Type this in the game's chat screen:

/listfiles generic_frame.shp

It should show you where the extra file is located.
