I am creating a brick breaker game from one of the books and Ive tested my game through out the process. Its loaded everytime. Now i just put the finishing touches of sound and powerups. Fixed all errors DB found and when i tell it to compile and run the screen goes black for a second and then bounces back to DB. I assume maybe i have an error DB isnt seeing???

As far as I know the only thing that will cause it to do that is the END command. Go through the code and make sure it isn't hitting an END or getting to the end of the code, or it will close. You could also put some debug readouts (have it print stuff at certain times) to see where the problem is occuring.

Hmm, your best bet is to comment out your recent additions and see if it runs.

You may find that there is a model issue (if a 3D model has errors, it can boot DBPro out as soon as it is loaded)

Post some code and we'll see if we can spot the error.

Thanks guys I found the error, in the main game loop. I had the loop command but forgot the DO command. For my first game I only had that error and some mis-spelling. I guess i cant complain.
