I've used the tool successfully in the first year of my league after following the various steps laid out on this thread:

1 - Make sure the program is actually installed at c:\Program Files\OOTPfacetool\
2 - If it is, open the file configuration.ini
The second line of that file should read c:\Program Files\OOTPfacetool\

If you've checked both of those, and they are both fine, then try the following:
1 - Go to Settings->Control Panel->BDE Administrator
2 - Look for the Alias "FaceTool1", and delete it
3 - Go into c:\Program Files\OOTPfacetool\data and delete everything that's in there except nations.csv and facialhair.csv (basically, delete anything that ends with .db)
4 - Delete the file c:\Program Files\OOTPfacetool\configuration.ini and the file c:\Program Files\OOTPfacetool\errors.txt

For some strange reason, the tool does not work when I try to run it in the 2nd year of the league. I've followed the same exact procedures, but to no avail. I am getting an INVALID POINTER OPERATION no matter what I do. I've even atttempted reinstalling the application several times. Does anyone have any insight into this particular error or how to get this tool to work consistently? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
