Starting the game off via Torsion
Before the game loaded up (when you have the little debugger connection dialog)
I clicked cancel on that dialog and Torsion crashed...
If I manage to replicate it I'll post in your mantis bug tracker -don't want to clutter it up if its just something my end.

Every once in a while when starting my game from Torsion I'll get this message
Quitting Torsion and restarting it will fix it, but its quite annoying when it happens

Found a wierd bug that I can't seem to reproduce reliably (so its probably not much use)Every once in a while when starting my game from Torsion I'll get this message
Precompiling... Precompile failed.

@James - Are you sure that another copy of your game isn't running in the background? I've had this happen when i quit my game and relatively quickly launched it again from Torsion. Although the game window is not visible the executable is still shutting down.

EDIT: Sorry for the triple post, refresh was reposting
EDIT2: Alt-tabbed for a bit and came back and got the error again (going to try a clean install of torsion and see if it clears up)
EDIT3: Nope, clean install, first run got the error, at least its easy enough to clear up (just click Yes, and then it won't bother you again for a while)

Absolutely positive thats not happing Tom, it just reproduced itself, popped up Task Manager to make sure TGBGame.exe isn't running. Got an error dialog saying there are script errors, if I click No to run the program anyway, it will give me the error repeatedly, if I click Yes, it'll usually be cleared up the next time I run the game.EDIT: Sorry for the triple post, refresh was reposting

And it's related to the "preferences being reset". (I know this because I've set the "black theme" to be the same as in Codeweaver and when I started Torsion I got "standard" colors)
Usually, I'm starting projects by launching the *.torsion files directly.
With this release Torsion now looks for preferences.xml file in the folder where the project is.
Before - it was using pref file from the "install folder". Okay, I copied the preferences.xml to the folder where my project file is.. and now all my preferences are "good". But I can't do any compile : Precompile failed.
But if I start the Torsion by launching it from the folder where it was installed to - no problems at all. I can even remove the preferences.xml file (leaving it in Torsion install folder ofcourse), and I don't have precompile problems from now.

@bank - I already found and corrected the launch issue with .torsion files... it was a installer bug. So that should also fix this precompile failed issue as well. Thanks for the heads up!

The fix without reinstalling: (in windows explorer) Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types -> Scroll down to Torsion (Torsion Project File) -> Advanced -> Edit... ->
Replace the value of "Application used to perform action:"
Now it works :) thanks again!

Just set up bank's solution, I'll see if I get any precompile failed errors today

Had no errors yesterday, that seems to have fixed the problem (though I had to reassociate all the torsion related icons which was a mild nuissance)

I just installed the final build and encountered a small bug. I just installed over top the old one and it seems to have broke the icon association for the Torsion files. The odd thing is the icons appear as normal via the open/save dialogs in Torsion.
#20

@Scott - Maybe you need a reboot... i've seen that sometimes it needs one before the icons go back to normal. Also if you changed the icon associations manually at some point the installer doesn't try to change them at all... this is to keep from messing up other .cs associations.
