I can't get TX2D to work at all

by John Bura · in Torque X 2D · 05/23/2010 (3:38 pm) · 8 replies

Hello there,

I can't seem to get anything going in TX2D

It keeps on giving me the error message saying it cannot find the schema file.

I set this up with XNA 3.1 and in visual studio 2008. But I also have 4.0 and 2010 on my computer. Would this cause a conflict?

I would really like to start using this can anybody help me out?

create a new project in visual studio then build it at least once.

that should create the schema file.

Hi there these errors come up.

Error 2 Your installation of XNA Game Studio does not support this project (XNA Platform = 'Windows', XNA Framework Version = 'v3.1'). Game

Hi,

did you installed XNA Game studio 3.1 ?

I don't even know if XNA Framework 3.1 and 4.0 can co-exist.

Try this, John. Open Visual C# 2008 and create an XNA 3.1 game project (not a TorqueX project...just a plain Jane XNA 3.1 game) and try to build & execute it.

This will at least tell you if you have a viable 3.1 Framework installation...if not...then Torque X will definitely not work.

For some reason the only thing that shows up in the new project windows is the torque projects, there are no new games. But for 3.0 there are templates. I built one of them and it worked.

Im going to try to uninstall 4.0 and see what happens.

Problem fixed...

It looks like XNA 3.1 CANNOT coexist with 4.0. So if you are using 4.0 uninstall it and use 3.1. It would be awesome to do this in 4.0 but Im assuming Torque Powered doesn't want to spend the time and update every version of XNA that comes out. Although it would be nice :)

Now I can build my game Muhahhah! ;)

They will update to 4.0 the question is when? when 3.0 and 3.1 came out they were pretty quick to update. For those of us who have source licenses anyway.

Awesome I can't wait. I understand that it cost money and time to get that stuff done, so I didn't know if they were going to invest in that.
