Odd Error... EDIT--Nevermind, disregard

Help is GREATLY appreciated here. On wednesday, I could run Torque without a problem. Then I added a change and compiled today, and I got an error message as soon as the window was drawn (before the garagegames splash screen would show) that said "Allocating a FrameTemp with less than one instance" and crash. I removed the change I made, compiled, and I get the same error message. I tried every one of my older torqueDemo.exe's, and that error message keeps popping up. The only time it works is when I use the original, unchanged torqueDemo. Has anybody gotten this error, and more importantly, can it be fixed?

Try deleting your dso's
then try running the game.. also look in the console for any errors

I've deleted those, still error...It only happens when I use a modified tourqueDemo.exe. It all worked last week, and the only change I made was adding the getAnglesFromVector() replacement resource. I'm probably going to end up re-downloading starter.fps and replace my files with my old ones. I'm convinced that this error is a link error that the compiler isn't catching, so maybe the graphics portion (or frame allocator) is missing from the program somehow.

You can also try a "rebuild all" one time before throwing in the towel...

Done it....This is the most frustrating problem I've ever seen, why won't torque work?!?!

I dunno ... search the source code for that error string and use your 133T debugging skills '-)

I did a Rebuild Solution and just about every item is failing to compile because it's missing an engine_DEBUG.lib file. Any suggestions?

Okay, fixed....I don't know what happened, but I copy-pasted the contents of my original starter.fps folder into that folder of a fresh sdk download, and did the same with my engine code. She works now, thanks for the help anyway, everyone.
