Player validation & crash when

What does it mean by:

Quote:Validation required for shape: fps/data/shapes/player/player.dts

I have a HEAD version from last week, and I want to debug it. So I have a breakpoint in guiShapeNameHud.cc and I click on F5 (Go).

When I try to start a mission, the program crashes with:

Quote:First-chance exception in torqueDemo_DEBUG.exe: 0xC000001D: Illegal Instruction.

It seems to be happy so far with find the right files in the right directories. This is a virgin copy of the Torque demo, so to speak, meaning I haven't changed any files. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Edit P.S. forgot to finish the title for this post! :P

It's a basic anti-cheat system that's built into Torque. When a client connects to a server, the server makes sure that it's using the same model files.

I see, so for some reason the server thinks that the client has a different player script file?

Thanks for the help.

No, that's just the progress message. It says that for every file that the mission requires that requires validation.
