My 3D Editor won't open anymore. When I double-click on it, it begins to open, starts showing the editor, and then closes. It pops up an error messages that says, "The application 3D Blades of Avernum Editor has unexpectedly quit." It gives me the option to submit a bug report to Apple, and then it gives this description:

I'm running Mac OS 10.3.9. I'm using the latest version of the 3D Editor, and reinstalling doesn't help. Nor does restarting or closing all other applications. I can't recall installing any system software recently, but I may have had some sort of auto-update or something.

 

Any ideas?

 

EDIT: And oddly enough, no version of the 3D Editor will open. They all do the same thing.

 

EDIT 2: What the heck? BoA won't open either. Gah, time to try re-downloading that.

 

EDIT 3: I did download a demo of BoA and install it to check if VoDT had been fixed, which seem related. It was installed in a completely different folder, and I'm not opening that copy, though.

Sounds like a corrupted resource file, although I could definitely be wrong. Check if the demo of BoA works.

Do you have the original editor? If so check if that works. (It shouldn't.)

 

Other than this, I'm pretty much at a loss. If both BoA and the editor don't work the problem is either with the files they share or any calls to Carbon they share. If no other programs (except those relevent to BoA) fail, then the problem should be with the files they share.

 

Can you build the source to the Editor?

Kelandon,

 

here is a real dumb question for you...

 

Was the 3d editor working the last time that you used it? If so, try to think what you were doing when you closed the editor. Was the file(s) saved correctly?

 

Please ignore -- thinking out loud..... :p

 

Did told you it was a dumb question.......

The original editor does not work either.

 

I have Xcode, but I have very little idea how to use it. With detailed instructions, I could build the source, but I wouldn't know how to do it myself.

 

The last thing I did with the editor was check the demo's version of VoDT. I chose not to save anything. It was working fine at that point.

What files do BoA and the editors share, exactly? Given that two separate copies of BoA, in separate directories, both failed to work, it can't be anything in the BoA directory itself. A corrupted preference file seems the next obvious suggestion. Try looking in your preferences folder (Users/apple/Library/Preferences) and moving everything with "Blades of Avernum" in its name into the trash. If everything works again after that, the preferences were causing the problem; delete them. (Note: this will unregister BoA.)

The editor does not use this file, but it does need the graphics from BoA. According to the crash data, the editor stopped upon entering the function load_sound(), which is incredibly odd, and suggests that OS X, did something wrong. Did BoA or the original editor give data when it crashed?

I've never used XCode, but from the tutorials on apple.com it seems pretty easy to use.

Here's the Quick Tour Guide:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/XcodeQuickTour/ index.html

First you should get a copy of the Mac editor's source. I can email it to you if you can't access it from the CVS server. I'm not sure, but I think the XCode project file is in the editor, so if it is, open it. If not, you'll have to create it. After that you should just have to compile/build it. All of this should be in the first section of the quick tour guide.

After you successfully build it once, we can figure out exactly where the editor stopped working.

Okay, so this is what I did:

 

I downloaded the source from Sourceforge. I looked through and found a .xcode file, and I figured that'd be the place to start building it. I opened it in Xcode, which popped up a promising-looking window. I went to the Build menu and chose "Build." It gave me this:

 

Quote:
Compiling EdFcns.cpp (2 errors)

error: `UCHAR' undeclared

error: parse error before `.' token

Build failed (2 errors)

When I try to open the resulting application, I get this message: "You cannot open the application '3D Blades of Avernum Editor' because it may be damaged or incomplete."

 

EDIT: After a conversation with Khoth, I did a find-replace of "UCHAR" for "unsigned char," at which point the build worked. Now what?

 

EDIT 2: It appears that my computer has some sort of serious internal error. Thanks guys, but I don't think we can solve it here.

Well there's some good news in that. Since you can build the editor's source code, you should be able to get rid of sound in the editor (I can tell you what to do if you want to) and get that to work. Also, you can manually go into BoA's preference file and turn the sound off (with a Hex Editor) to get BoA working. This might help, in case fixing the bug takes longer than expected.

Okay, Apple has now claimed that sound resources are "third-party software," so they cannot provide any technical support. Additionally, because the operating system CDs that I have are scratched, I apparently have to buy the CDs over again in order to re-install my system software.

 

Other than blowing eighty bucks for a fix that may or may not actually change anything, anyone have any ideas? Like, for instance, who might actually offer technical support on this?

 

The problem is that sound resource files no longer play properly on my computer. SW games crash, and EV's sound is completely jacked up. I listen to sound resources in ResEdit, and they sound staticky and bad.

 

EDIT: Actually, it's all sound in Classic mode. I finally managed (on the third try) to get someone at Apple tech support who knows what he's talking about. This ought to be interesting.

The sound resources aren't corrupt, the part of OS X that loads/plays them is. Fixing this is Apple's responsibility. Perhaps you should explain this to them.

If they still refuse to help, I googled OS X Support, and got this site:
http://www.macosx.com/

Seems promising.

Okay, WOW. My computer is messed up. After determining that it was all sound in Classic mode, not just snd resources, they decided that they could help me, and I just spent the past four hours talking to five different tech support people who made me do everything from re-installing Classic to running a Disk Repair to screwing with every possible aspect of Quicktime, and it still doesn't work. They're sending me to the higher-ups in the Apple tech support world, the people who don't normally even speak to customers.

 

My SW game-playing may be somewhat reduced for some time until they can figure this out.

Yeah, I thought the same thing when I first tried it. It was in a couple of obscure posts on the Classic tech support forums at Apple. The method might seem silly, but it also seems to work. Perhaps the tech support guys at Apple should read the forums more often. :p

Isn't life wonderfully ironic?
