Problem running demo..

by Anthony Parkes · in Torque Game Engine · 06/21/2004 (9:48 am) · 7 replies

Hi... just had to get a new computer... winXP sp1, 1GB RAM, 256 MB fx5500 Graphics, all latest drivers installed

and of course i had to rinstall torque, but im getting an error when i try to run the demo

' user breakpoint called from code at 0x77f75a58 '

any ideas what is going on??

I forgot to mention this error was debugging in VC++ 6

when i try to run the debug.exe a message window opens saying torquedemo_debug.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.

worked fine under win 2000 for me...

cheers

Tony

Have you tried running Torque in the debugger and seeing where it's dying?

I dont know enough about debugging to say exactly where, but the line of code i am on reads


77F75A58 int 3

You should check the call stack, that'll give you more information. Sometimes people fill memory with int 3 so that if code is executing there and it shouldnt be it'll break and launch JIT debugging.

Ive done a complete reformat, and fresh install, still the same problem..., does not load..

interstingly,i have a similar problem with unreal tournament 2004, that does not start past the splash screen, are there any common files between these 2 programs that could be missing or corrupt.

I did get torque demo going for a while but something has obviously changed somewhere.

this is what i get from the call stack

DInputManager::enable() line 67
Input::init() line 105 + 18 bytes
Platform::init() line 1066

DemoGame::main(int 1, const char * * 0x01182980) line 424 + 5 bytes

thanks for any help

Looks like it's failing trying to initialize DirectInput, which UT would use also. Maybe it's a corrupt DirectX install, or a driver for your joystick or something like that.

I'm having this same problem, and I've already been through the process of wiping a drive and doing a complete reinstall as well. I cannot get a compile of TGE to run for anything.
