Topic: Error "Could not find DPs_base.ini"

I can not slipstream. The options tree is missing. I have manually created the DPs_Base.ini, however it does not load when selected. Also the options part of the ini that I created seems to get erased if I run DPs_Base. Any suggestions?

Attached is a copy of the log file
