When I open a XNA Game Studio Project. The builder just locks up and freezes. I'm not sure if I'm completely up to date with my version of TX. What version should I be at right now?

You have to use version 2.0. It's in the requirements in the getting started tutorial.

Thanks, that did it. Seems like when I resize the viewport it crashes.

Got the same problem, however I am running Torque X 2.0 Pro and the Torque X Builder beta. When I try to resize the viewport it crashes. But also when I am trying simple to load a XNA project it crashed. Well actually it crashes with anything I try to do.

It could be the fact that I am running on Windows Vista 64bit?

I do have a file with debug info, but I am not sure it is smart to post that completely in the forum?

I like what I read about Torque X Game Dev, great work and can't wait!

One problem with TGB beta:
- I lost the tabs that shows the 3d scene, the camera slider and the scene data tab (tabcontrol i think).
I tried it for about 1 minute, just clicked here and there in the interface then dragged a model that was in my scene... then TGB crashed when I resized. Upon restarting TGB the tabs for 3d scene and scene data no longer exist.

I tried uninstall/reinstall including manually deleting folder remaining files.

HP core 2 duo 2.40 GHz, 3 GB ram, 32-bit Vista Home Premium.

Cheers!

I got a problem when i try to import assets to the builder.
The builder throws me an exception. and then quits. That happends when I try to create a new folder to drop the assets. This happends only when I use the Menu->project->import assets, if I use the button on the proyect explorer, everything works fine.

this is the exectption

Regarding the screen resize crash.

I tried to see what would happen if I resize the screen before I load my project and scene. Know I get a blank purple screen and I see the viewport is a fixed size and doesn't expand.

Know I can't see my scene except this purple blank screen. I wanted to see if it will refresh the scene if I resize the window, but it didn't. Also when I resize the window smaller than the viewport is crashed.

but, now I can't load my project and scene without this blank purple screen. So I wanted to see what happen it I rebuild my Studio Prj and run it. And, when I tried to run it, it said the SceneLoader.Load(@"data\levels\levelData.txscene"); was locked, but I was still able to use the [Step over] to load the level.

I close the program and restarted TXB3D and know I'm able to load my scene.

Open a project and try to add skybox, terrain, etc - black viewport
Open sample scene - crash
