Basic 1.2.3 issues

Post #1by UncleSpam » 27.03.2002, 14:48

I just downloaded v1.2.3 and installed it yesterday. After the fresh install, it ran, however, after adding a higher resolution texture of Mars. The program started crashing on startup. No other changes were made.

I took that texture out of the hires folder and the program kept on crashing.


This makes this latest version of the program useless to me.

Regards,

Bogdan

I have done a bit of experimenting...

Installed a clean copy of Celestia 1.2.3, ran it (it ran just fine), and while running, I copied a higher resolution image to the high res folder. Using Shift-R, I was able to use the high res image (beautiful) and then I quit the program.

It started crashing again after I restarted it.

BTW, my config is: Dell Inspiron 8100 1.2GHz, 512 MB RAM, nVIDIA GeForce2 Go 32 MB, 1600x1200x32bit display, running XP Pro.

Sorry for the previous double-posting.

After some testing, I have discovered that I had a "renagate" copy of the 1.2.1 executable (elsewhere on the hard drive) and for some reason, IT was causing the interference.

Deleted it and now things are running.
