iTGB Crashes now when started...

by Ecliptic · in iTorque 2D · 03/21/2010 (1:27 pm) · 7 replies

Hey guys, I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out since I thought it would have been a simple fix. iTGB on my PC has been working fine but last night it crashed on me when I tried running the game. Ever since then I can not startup iTGB.

When I try creating a new project it crashes as soon as it gets into the editor and does the same when I try to load a project. I have removed everything related to iTGB from my PC and reinstalled but the issue still remains. I am running it on a Windows XP machine and like I said, everything was working fine. I am assuming there is a file that is saved somewhere that I need to delete that probably got corrupted but I can't find anything. I tried seaarching but have not found an answer yet.

Anyonw have an idea?

Thanks
Dane

I ran into the similar problem a few days ago. To fix, I copied the following files from good versions and replaced the ones in my project that was crashing.

iTorque2DGame.exe
iTorque2DGame_debug.exe
project.t2dProj

I can try transfering something over from another computer... Problem is, it isn't with a specific project it is iTGB. I can launch iTGB and get to the screen with the create project or open project option. No matter which I pick, whenever it loads the editor, it crashes and the console.log doesn't show any reason why it should crash.

Thanks for the advice I am going to try it anyway though. Worth a shot at this point.

i would start by clearing out the configurations potentially you messed with them before the crash and they now take place and kill it

I tried but still didnt work. I am just trying to get iTGB working again at this point. Everything is a clean install on the PC and there are no torque files left on the comp. I can't even get a fresh download of iTGB to create a project... Once inside the editor it instantly crashes. Is there a hidden preference file that is somewhere else on the computer? Not located in the T2D_iPhone_1_3_1 folder?

yes there are files actually :)

torque writes its configurations where they are meant to be which is not the install folder.
They are in the app data folder actually which is hidden in your users folder

I think he is talking about the global settings for gargegames. Check this url for how to delete them. The iphone version did not work until I deleted the old settings.

Thanks, this is what I was looking for. I knew they existed somewhere but just couldn't find out where on the PC. I usually work on my laptop to use torque but lately been trying on the PC. This fixed the issue right away.

Sorry for the trouble.
