RC1: Hang on Project Load

by Jay Barnson · in Torque Game Builder · 06/04/2006 (12:27 am) · 2 replies

I've got a hang on project load - T2D becomes unresponsive.

I can email the project if needed. It's very small. I was using TorqueDev (Codeweaver) to handle scripting changes, so there could have been some problem with using the two tools in combination.

If by "hang", you mean that you get a white screen for 3-6 seconds during engine initialization (before any of your own scripts load), and you get no error messages; then I've got it too. [Thought keyboard input works. If I hit a function key to bring up an editor during the hang, the engine will obediently launch the editor after the white screen goes away and the main menu gui has been loaded.]

I develop on a Mac, so Codeweaver (Windows only) isn't the issue with me.

My project is medium-sized, 37Mb packaged; and has been in development since Beta1 (where it does not experience the hang).

I mean hang as in it never returns AFACT. It just freezes.
