When I start up FPSCX10 and, WITHOUT loading a level, start building a game, everything goes fine while editing the menus. The downside? It removes all glass and posters from the final version. When DO load a game, though, and try to edit the menus, it crashes when I hit okay. The upside? With this, glass and poster load. The problem is it keeps crashing and if I want them, I have to use default things and I spent so much time getting pictures and music, not to mention that 2 levels rely entirely on posters and/or glass. WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY COMPUTER?!

Have you updated to the official 1.11, and run the FPSC-Cleaner.exe? It is likely that the files are corrupt.

They work in the Preview just fine. Also, the glass is from the Holez addon. And yes, I am fully updated. I don't know what FPSC-Cleaner is. Would it delete bad files or repair them?

EDIT: I do not have Mystic Mod

EDIT #2: I actually think I did update my Graphics Card a few months ago to something really good. It helped me run Metro 2033 and Red Faction: Guerrilla

FPSC-Cleaner deletes the .dbo and .bin files that are created when the game is tested, so your models are still there, it just recreates the temp files at next build.

Quote: "Also, the glass is from the Holez addon"

I think that is the problem. I believe that someone else had crashes with Holez.

Huh. The holes from Holez work just fine unless you put them right next to each other.

Whats the point to FPSC-Cleaner if it does nothing important?

The point to FPSC-Cleaner is, as budo said, used to remove the BIN and DBO files, deleting any which may be corrupted. Therefore, when you run the test game, it automatically creates new DBO and BIN files.

If the files are corrupted, then X10 will crash when it tries to make use of those file.

The glass shows up in the method I mentioned in my first post, so I know it has to be supported. Also, the posters would vanish, and that's not related to the glass.

EDIT: What do the dbo and bin files actually do?

They are the files that DBP uses. The reason that they are used, is because they can store lightmap data, without requiring extra files.

So if they are corrupted, what does it do? Remove lighting?

If they are corrupted, they might be missing important information, such as shader data, and cause FPSC to close, because it can't interpret everything that is requested.

Once you update, it should ask if you want to run it, but you can also find it:
c:/program files/the game creators/fps creator x10/bin
(If you have the folder "program files(x86)", then use that instead of just "program files".)

Did you make sure that your files are in the correct FPSC X10 folder, so that they can be copied over during the build?

What do you mean by "correct"? They're all in the X10 folder...

I don't know what stock entities are. Like I said earlier, they are all from HoleZ. They have worked fine in the built games before, but I am having problems with them and the posters you make with the poster maker in FPSCX10. There is nothing wrong with my computer, but I don't know why it is doing this based on the conditions described in my earlier post.

They may look fine in the editor, but because this glass was meant for dx9 it will not work with x10, I have downloaded holez as well. That pack is not 100% compatible with x10. Lot's of problems with it. Only a few things will work. Glass is not one of them.

I've had it work in built games. See the conditions previously for what they were.

EDIT: Should I reinstall?
