Fatal Error:Invalid Connection ObjectID

by Joe Melton · in Torque Game Engine · 11/09/2002 (9:11 pm) · 4 replies

I get this error anytime I change anything in a mission.

First, I made a map in QuArK and used the map2dif on it to make it work with Torque. I put it in the correct directory. When I attempted to put it in the mission, I got that error, and Torque crashed.

Next, I did Desmond Fletcher's skybox texture tutorial on his website: http://holodeck.st.usm.edu/vrcomputing/vrc_t/tutorials/surrounds/

When I made changes to the .mis file, saved, and attempted to load the mission, I got the fatal error, and it crashed. So I decided to make the same changes to the scorched earth mission. Got the crash again.

I can't figure out what's going on. Has anybody else had this problem before? Anybody know the cure?

Thanks

Look really closely at the console log. Something is awry and it will tell you. I get that sometimes and console tells me why. Also delete dso files.

Great.

For the map, I hadn't moved the textures to the proper location.

For the sky textures, Notepad didn't give me the proper file extension, so I pasted everything in TribalIDE and saved it as .dml and everything worked.

Thanks for pointing out that logfile to me. For some reason I never thought about that. =)

Yet again Torque's log file has saved the day!
