i have a sapien problem like when i open sapien it closes by its self does any body know how to sove this problem

In halo ce root directory there is a debug.txt
copy and paste the last paragraph here.

exatly whair is the picture

Right click on sapien - properties -> and turn the compatible thing to windows90 or something.. Whatever works :P

I think you should do what Maniac1000 says. It's a tag problem i think. Some tags are not where they are suppost to be. To help you whit that we need the debug.txt from your haloce root directory.

How can you know it doesn't work if you never did it? Plz just post the debug.txt file from you hlao root directory and leet me solve this for you! It's prebly sapien that sucks far mor tha guerillia. The debug.txt wil DEFENETLY give us a new clue...

POST EVERYTHING U FIND IN THAT TEXT FILE RIGHT HERE. copy paste.

I love how it's been 4 days, you're cursing Guerilla, you have no clue what's going on, and this lovely piece of advice is still ignored:

you are wierd gamma but my debug txt is very very long and i can't copy and paste

I specifically said just to paste the last paragraph.
Yes you can copy and paste, select the last paragraph press ctrl+c then make a new post here and press ctrl+v to paste it .

try this.start sapien but dont load a map. press alt, ctrl, delete and bring up the task bar. search for sapien in processes. right click and select "set affinity" uncheck the last box, should say cpu 1 and then hit ok. sapein hates dual procecers.

if you are runnig win7 or vista;
1.open your halo directory where it has tags and maps folder 2.
on the top bar above all thefiles should be a compatibility files button click it
3.u should find debug.txt,
open, copy latest paragraph and paste on this forum

OK well since he won't I will, I'm having a problem very similar to his, I open a .scenario and it'll open but then close randomly. I'm running on the craptacular Vista. Thanks for any help in advance.

You need to run sapien with just 1 core, i think there are different ways to do it, that should work.
Also set it to work in xp compatibility, something like that.

OK! I got it to work with that... had to make it run on 2 core and run it in windows 95 mode to make it stay open. Thanks guys.

thats what i said, sapien hates dual procecers, so set to use only 1 of the 2, it worked for me

I know thats what you said, thats why i took the time to quote you :)
