Is there any kind of crash report?

by Matt Delph · in Torque X 2D · 08/30/2010 (3:30 am) · 3 replies

I've been working through the tutorials, and noticed that sometimes when I run the game it crashes even though Visual Studio doesn't find any errors. I know the problem is somewhere in my own code, but I'm not sure where. Is there any kind of prompt I can enable or log I can look into that might tell me where I messed up?

They way I've been doing it involved deleting the line I thought to be the problem, re-building/re-running the game, realize that line wasn't the problem, and repeat until frustration ensues.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

You could try using the debug feature. To do this, click the gray area to the left of the code, it will add a red dot. When the game gets to that point it will pause and return you to your code were you can view current values by hovering your mouse over the code.

This has helped me find errors.

Are you running the game with debug? Are you using source or binaries? According to your profile you do not have either licensed.

@Aaron I'll give that a try, it may not solve my current problem, but it'll definitely help out in the future. (As you can tell by my recent posts/threads, I've been trying to figure out how to use the camera & set up a HUD using the GUI template... It hasn't been going well...).

@Henry I've been using the 3.1.5 Trial, and I have been running it in debug.
