Portal Problem

Hi. I'm not sure if this is the right place for this or not. I'm really new to TGE and I'm using Constructor and MAC OS. I have made a building and exported for .dif. When I import the model into TGE I either can't enter the building at all or I can go through the wall where the door is (the entire wall, not just the doorway) and any opposite walls. I've tried making the doorway a portal and just an opening and I get the same results. I've also tried exporting as map2dif to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I would recommend installing the patch which is available on the Constructor forums and TDN. It does not work on all Macs, however, so backup the existing install.

Thanks for the quick response. I tried the patch. Bad idea for me. I ended up deleteing contructor and reinstalling. (I did keep backup). After the reinstall I had the same problem, but with the perpindicular walls. Odd. Is this a general mac issue?

Nope. It was in the Mac and PC versions of Constructor.

I've had the same issue as recent as last week. Should probably post this in the Bug report area.

@Scott
Were you using a Mac and having Constructor crash?
