Aaarrggghh!!!

Hi all.

I just got the game and I love it. Love it I tell you. Anyway, I was starting the editor and figured and play around with it. Before I get a chance to try even the simplest thing, like putting down a person or making a house, or even change the view from ISO to Top down, the freaking thing locks on me.

I am pretty sure that it isn't the editor, since I get message stating that I have a Kernel32.dll error. I figured it have something to do with Direkt-X, so I reinstalled it from the game-CD. No luck.

Does anyone out here know what a Kernel32.dll error is, and how to fix it?. I am at a loss here.

Also, I DL the modmaking 101 and have been reading it. Damn, that looks hard. All these scripting and stuff. This leads me to another question.

If I am to start a completly new MOD. I add the number of sectors and stuff. But do I still need ot open up a bunch of other files before I can add objects to the game world? I mean, Can't I atleast just put down a few objects and then open these scripts and stuff.

I surely hope anyone out there can help me with this.

Unfortunately, with Windows, this can mean pretty much anything. I would, however, suggest you make sure there are no other programs running in the background, and then try again.

 

Hey Mr. Calis.

I do have a few programs running. Mostly those in the tray. I found that my anti-virus program really took a big chunk of my computer, so I let it do a quickscan and then turn it off. The other only program I can think of is Firewall. I'm not sure if that have anything to do with it, since I haven't experienced any problems with speed or errors. I will try at turn it off and see what happens. Thanks for the info.

Ok. It's me again.

i have tried everything I can think of to get this problem solved.

1. Re-install Direct-X 8.0a = no change
2. Re-install Arcanum = no change
3. Re-install Windows ME = no change
4. Updating with the latest patch = no change
5. Turning off every prog. in the tray = no change
6. yelling at my computer = no change
7. Scouring the net for any info about Kernel32.dll = no change (Didn't find any info)

Anything else I could try? Is it possible that the disk itself is damaged?

I really would like some answers to this, since I would love to get the MOD building a try. Also Anyone knows how to scroll on the map. The few times I get it to work for more then a few seconds, I try to scroll, but nothing happens. I have the scroll speed to realy fast, but I could have it off for all the good it is doing me.

I sure hope that troika will get a userfriendly MOD manual ready soon. Maybe with some tips on how to get started.

Try here

I dont know- but I found a web site dedicated to the Kernel thing.

Thanks for the link.

Still haven't found it tho. These errors are for other programs, and they don't have any for world-ed. The error message is different now. Before it reported a page error in kernel, but now it only says that world-ed have caused an error in Kernel32.dll

No other program is bothering me, they all work fine. I am startig to belive that the editor is faulty on my cd. Anyone knows if it is possible to get hold of a new version of the editor? Rather then exchanging the entire game.
