Howdy, gamer,

Please Include the RealityFactory.log file contents. This file is found in the root installation folder for RF. IE: C:\Reality Factory\

Cut and paste the text of that file into this post so folks can see what's happening when the program crashes. Thanks!!

Yep, that is the log file.

2 things catch my eye.

1) Reality Factory 080 test build? I'm not sure where that came from? Have I missed a build?

What version of RF do you have?

2) The other is the endless stream of dspotlight lights being added. In the rftechv1 file I have, there is only 1 dspotlight in the whole thing. It's as though it is stuck on that entity, or you have add about a hundred more dspotlights?? It looks like it's being overwhelmed by that entity and just crashing.

WOW that's a lot of Dspotlights!!

Post by **Jay** » Wed Oct 11, 2006 4:12 pm

I think he has just a couple of DSpotLights, because i noticed RF does say every frame that it added a DSpotLight...so to me it looks like it's running, but at the same time it's crashing...very strange. Maybe it crashes but then works in the background.

I saw the RealityFactory080 TestBuild thingie a while ago, too. I wonder why everyone but me seems to have RF080 and then when you ask they have 072...

If the log file you posted is from your current installation of RF you definitly have an older version (test build 0.80 was RF072 or RF072A if I remember correctly).
I suggest you download the latest full installer (RF075A) and patch it with RF075B. Try running one of the demo levels first. If the problem still occurs please post again.

Oh, so the one labeled 080 was actually 072 or 072A? Whew. I was sure I'd missed something.
