Strange initialization problem

by Viktor Rumanuk · in Torque X Platformer Kit · 02/01/2008 (5:52 pm) · 2 replies

I'm getting a really weird error involving the platformer starter game. I create a new project and run it, no problems here, the sample scene with the five platforms and dragon is played. Now if I go into txb, open up my scene and save it, changing nothing, and run it again an error comes up saying that "idleMaterial" cannot be found. I don't have any idea of how to figure out what is going on here. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Viktor

Still haven't figured this out. Saving the project and not the scene does not trigger this. Looking through the errors it appears that none of the materials can be found. I am also getting "SceneContainer requires a SceneGraph", "doh! no material for animated sprite data!", "doh! no frames in the image!", "no animation frames to generate an animation from", "failed to create an animation. These last four repeat for each animation, then the window loads up and I get another error saying that objects without a material cannot be rendered. Something is going very wrong here. This doesn't happen with StarterGame2D, I'll check if it happens with anything else.

Wow, sorry about my stupidity. Guess I should check for updates before I create a thread.
