LoadMyMission(); --->crashes

by Jeff Loveless · in Torque Game Engine · 06/16/2006 (7:53 am) · 4 replies

I've gone through the "getting started" tutorial, and gotten to 1.4 of it. I have the done everything exactly as it told and now i want to click the "start" button to test it out. Every time i do, torque gets an error and has to shut down (like when a program isn't responding sorta).

I never called anything MyMission in the creation so far, so is it loading something that doesn't exist? The tutorial wanted me to name my mission as "GameOneMission.mis. I tried that in the command field and it made the start button do nothing.

If anybody can help me, that would rock.
Thanks

Are you talking about a book ?
if so you'll probably get better responses posting in the forum specific to that book.

I'm talking about the "getting started.pdf" file that comes with Torque indie. (C:\Torque\SDK\example\getting started.pdf). It is the guide that walks you through making a simple world with a few hills/textures/and the gui screen. it basically makes a little mock up game example using the resorces of the "tutorial.base" folder's files. if you follow the directions of the getting started.pdf file you will understand. it is basically like making a real game (as you would make) but it is very simple. After running your game .exe file, on your starting gui screen, if you have a "start" button to begin the game you just made, you'd have set the command for that button to "loadMyMission();" or whatever you put in that field to make your game run. That is where i get the error message (in windows, not an ingame error provided by torque). if you have torque, you should have the "getting started.pdf" file.
