i'm having a serious problem ... :-\
i imported the RON GUI instead of the old one , and when i tried to open my game i got this kind of message with an exclamation mark next to it : " a duplicate sprite folder was detected ( folder "defaults has multiple parents ) AGS has now repaired the problem "
then i get a "send error to microsoft " message , and then the editor CRASHES !!! :o
what is happening ? what can i do ? is all my work lost ? ???
the strange thing is when i try to create a NEW game i get this message: "select the template to use with your new game " with a white space below it .
and when i try to input the name of the new folder i get this : "cant open template "
should i email chris about this problem ?
thanks for any info ... i'd hate to lose weeks worth of work
EDIT:
and when i try to run my game with the executable, and then i close it , i get this : " an internal error has occured .
ACI version (2.56.627)
Error: FIND GUIID: no matching GUI found : gui may have been deleted
Thx for the help .
hmm ...maybe this should be in the tech forum ... but i cant seem to be able to delete it to put it there ...
anyway the template problem is solved , i deleted stupidly the "blank game " from my folder .
but the MAIN 2 problems remain :
- i cant edit my game in any way
- and when i leave running the executable i get the "internal error" message
Is this still occuring?
well i uninstalled the AGS program .
but before doing that i managed to back-up All of my rooms ... which constitute maybe 80 % of the work time ...
then i installed AGS again and loaded the rooms one by one .
but i had to do again the dialogs , the general scripting and importing all the sprites and characters ....
took me about a day to fix everything so its not as bad as i feared it would be at first :)
