Torsion 1.0.558 corrupting my files?

by Kaya Dogan · in Torque Game Engine · 05/07/2006 (8:20 am) · 6 replies

After editing some of my scripts with torsion 1.0.558 (I created a project first), I noticed that my game won't run anymore...when I start it, I only get screen artifacts within the window and the cursor leaves tracks etc.
Any idea why this happens?

Are you running from Torsion or running the exe from explorier or the command prompt? Does the console.log show any errors?

First time I ran it from within Torsion, later on I ran it directly by doubleclicking the icon...the logfile doesn't show any errors...I wonder what's wrong...deleting the DSO's doesn't solve that problem either...does torsion modify the torqueDemo.exe in any way?

Torsion does not alter the .exe but it but it does add to the main.cs "// BEGIN TORSION" with some code and then ""// END TORSION" you could try removing that if it exists, but I really don't see that as causing you problems.

Hi Kaya.

Could you detail what changes you made to the scripts?

I just added some comments I forgot to create earlier and saved my work. So nothing special...

This is a great example of why it's good to use a source-control app like subversion even if you're the only developer on a project. it would show you real quick what had changed since your last working version.

but, that aside,
try tracking down where it's hanging.
eg by running in debug and pausing/breaking the app when it's hung and seeing where it is.
