Chapter Four Not working
by Wilson · in Torque Game Engine · 02/27/2007 (12:44 pm) · 4 replies
I Have Reached Chapter Four in the book, and typed in all of the code however when I click the icon it just pops up with a loading box but nothing else happens. I assumed there was just an error in the code swo then I went to the place where all the code was typed in correctly(3dgpai1>resource>ch4), but that did not work either. it seems like it is just not reading the code. Any answers?

I tried that but it still just opens with a blank dos-looking loading prompt even with the correct code.

Make a duplicate folder of your files, and then import or copy/paste his files/folders into your duplicate folder and test it.did you have any logs in your folder such as a console.log Example

also look at the console log it should point you in the right direction often giving you the exact file and line for errors it should be a text doc file it your folder. or ~ when in game window, it has been awhile since I've done the chapter
