I cant start a new project in Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express edition to work in TXB. When I try to create a new project I get this messege:

"Project Template Wizard

A problem was encountered creating the subproject 'Game'. The project file C:\Documents and settings\............\Temp\ox0m5ljx.kwb\Temp\Game.csproj cannot be opened

The project type is not supported by this installation."

Anybody know what the problem could be? I think I have intalled all the nessesery softwares so I dont understand why it says "not supported by this installation".

Are you trying to create the project from Torque X Builder or from Game Studio Express? Also, are you able to create a generic XNA game? To try it, open Game Studio Express, then select File > New Project and then choose the Windows Game project template. Does the game project load, compile, and run? Reply back with the results of what happens.

Hi

Im trying to create the game from Game studio express, just as the TXB-documentation is telling me to do. I go to File > New Project and then Im trying to create a game by using the Torque templates, but then Im getting the error messege. It works fine though when Im creating a game with the Windows Game-template, it compiles and run without problems. The problem only appears when Im creating a game using the Torque templates.

Do you have to create games with the Torque templates to be able to open them with TXB? Im new to TXB, as you can see, so I dont know much about it yet. Thanks for the help.

Yes, you do. And it sounds like you are doing everything correctly. What operating system are you running, XP or Vista? Also, did you install XNA Game Studio Express 1.0 or 2.0? Currently only 1.0 will work. I'll keep thinking about this because you seem to be doing everything right.

Im running XP, but I did install GS 2.0, so that has to be the problem then. Ill try to install 1.0 right away. Thanks.

I'm glad that worked out. Your website looks great - time to start brining those games over to Torque X ;)

Happy Holidays,
