Hi, Sapien keeps crashing after i try to load a file. This is my log::

03.12.10 12:26:29 sapien pc 01.00.00.0609 ----------------------------------------------

03.12.10 12:26:32 Increasing sound decompression buffer size to 1048576 bytes

I am running a dual core and have tried setting it to only use one core but the same thing happens. Any help is appreciated.

Either you didnt wait long enough or thats not the entire debug.

thats the debug for the last sapien run. this is the entire debug

You were right to only post the last paragraph.
I dont see any errors in that debug.
Are you running vista (dual core)?
My god, maybe i should read what you wrote.
Try running sapien in xp computability.

im running xp though =/

32 bit colors?

Yes

Duo core is not a Vista specific problem. People with XP will also have it as well.

Any one have any clue on how to fix it?

Well, I have this problem too. But I have a solution. Turn on Sapien, but don't select any scenarios yet. Then activate Task Manager, which I believe is activated by CTRL+ALT+DELETE keys. Then, go to the processes tab and find sapien.exe. Now, right-click sapien.exe, and click Set Affinity...
Then just uncheck a box and only one core should be checked. You can pick either CPU 0 or CPU 1. These are your duel core processors. Afterwards, press ok and select your scenario in sapien, and click on it, then wait until it opens it up. I hope this helps your problem.

I've done that and still doesn't work =(

where it says 03.12.10 12:05:39 file_open('data\levels\frozen\models\frozen.jms') error 0x00000002 'The system cannot find the file specified.

try finding "frozen.jms" and put it in data\levels\frozen\models

i dont know if it will work, just give it a try

I doubt that will work, as that's not even part of the problem. That's one of the older debugs in the sapien debug file. The most recent one's at the bottom.

Even if that were true, you're supposed to omit the models folder when compiling. frozen.jms belongs inside the data\levels\frozen\models folder, but in tool, you only type:

tool model levels\frozen

Also, if it's a BSP, you'd use the structure command, rather than the model command.

Ok when i load i file it pops up with the windows error report screen but i can still mess around in sapien for a few seconds before it gets closed.

Is your debug last entry the same?
Does this happen if you open the tutorial.scenario?

the debug is the same and it happens when i try to load tutorial.scenario
