Game exe crashes [FIXED]

[demosthenesk]

Hi, i need help for a game crash issue.

I implement a game prototype for a future game that runs perfectly inside Shiva3D engine but after as an exe crashes.

I have produced the windows zip file with the exe from Authoring Tool with no error.

the project is the following


In Win7 just crashes, in WinXP there is an alert window that says it can not read from a memory pointer

Doesn't crash here (Windows 7 x64).

please make sure you are using the current shiva 1.9.2 stable with the stable version of the authoring tool (1.4) - using e.g. a beta / previous version of the Authoring Tool may produce something like this.

i have Shiva3D 1.9.2 and Authoring tool 1.3.1 i will try to upgrade the Authoring tool and we will see...

[broozar]

yes that will lead to crashes. not only have the engines evolved, but the file formats for models etc. inside the editor and subsequently the STKs have changed since 1.9.1/1.3.1 times.

ok it was the Authoring Tool, old version, now with 1.4 all are fine.

Thanks

no, exes from ancient eras work just fine normally. you need to have a couple of things in place though:
- up to date graphics drivers for your card incl. openGL
- DirectX 9 SDK from 2010 - which is also required if you wish to play older games http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... px?id=6812
