I Have A Terrible Problem And Need Help!!!

Post by metal_head » Mon May 26, 2008 8:06 pm

My PC broke down,so I put my game's files on a portable Hard Drive and Worked on them on my laptop.On my laptop I patched my game folder with the newton physics and it worked great,but now when I fixed my PC and put the files back RF won't start.I think I don't have driver or something.When I start RealityFactory.exe it throws me out of the game and gives an error. What could be the problem.I'm serious about my project and I don't want to loose everything I managed to create.I think it's something with the physics engine or I don't know because I have the older copy of my game without the physics and it works great.It doesn't even lets me in the game menu just black screen....and than throws me out.... :cry: :evil:



OH,Yeah,also I copied the old RealityFactory.exe from my unpatched version of the game without the physics and replaced it with the one from the patch and everything worked except for the physics....

-check if the graphics driver is installed
-check if the sound driver is installed
-what error gives it to you?
-which version of RF is the 'old' one?
Everyone can see the difficult, but only the wise can see the simple.

well the old one I called the version of RF before I patched it because in he patch there's another version which is 1.89 MB and the one I was with before was 1.87 MB Everything should be installed because all my files are there and I don't really understand what do you mean by graphics driver and sound driver because everything should be installed and as I said the "old" version is working fine. Here's what says the log file:

Code: Select all

If you showed both (the patched and the unpatched) versions' RealityFactory.log, we would know which versions of RF are the 'new' and 'old' ones and that would help alot.

BTW that looks similar to the problem ardentrest has:

There's another thing I think it's my computer because I sent the game with only one of the levels I made to a friend and he didn't have any problems the laptop also doesn't have problems with this version of RealityFactory (the 0.75 NGD) only my computer seems to have it but if I don't fix that I wont be able to finish my game.I'm not allowed to touch the laptop anymore.
