Mission editor crash

by Lars Ricaldi · in Torque Game Engine · 06/06/2002 (9:22 am) · 5 replies

I'm having problems with the editor, after pressing F11 there s no problem, I can sometimes edit for 10 minutes sometime for 2 minutes and my computer just freezes, there is nothing special that I do that makes it crash, it happens anytime, torque demo runs fine, everything runs fine except the editor. I have releadse 1.1.1 Does anyone have this problem?

The only thing that would normally freeze your computer would be a driver crash. The editor makes use of different OpenGL rendering paths, it's very possible that your video driver has a bug related to something the editor is trying to do. I'd recommend making sure you have the latest and greatest for your video card first.

Well I found out that it doesnt crash when I use full screen instead of windowed mode

What video card do you have, and do you have recent drivers? If it works full-screen but not windowed, it's definitely sounding like a driver problem.

Ok, thanks for the info Lars. I'm not sure what we can do about it though, since 3Dfx is not longer around.
