Torque 3D Crashes when i try to do most things

by Philip Loyer · in Torque 3D Professional · 04/16/2010 (9:16 pm) · 7 replies

I just bought Torque 3D and whenever I try to load one of the existing projects in the world builder or play the project the selected project crashes (I.E. Physx.exe has encountered a problem etc etc when I try to load the the FPS demo. However I did notice that the web player does work. I have updated the my video card drivers and I have the newest version of directx. I am running Windows 7 32-bit and I am running the toolbox as Administrator. Considering I just bought this its very frustrating. Thanks for your help guys.

Installing the PhysX runtime build should solve your problems while you wait for them to approve your registration.

I installed the runtime and the latest directx sdk I still seem to be having that problem, do i need to maybe uninstall Torque 3D then reinstall it?

That PhysX regsitration could take a month or more. I know someone who waited months. Nvidia, please pull head from rump.

They have fixed whatever they had broken, i registered last week and was emailed back in less than 4 hours.

I think they have issues with some of the answer they get from the form at times.
