I was trying my interface designing, went to the kitchen and when I went back I just notice that the engine was showing 127 instances of an error message. So, I try to close all of them, but it keeping increasing, 167 messages errors.
The message was: "Error: Creating memory mapping".
Any ideas why?

Ok, I got to reproduce the problem. I only have an entity with cubic enviroment shader that is turning over a map entity with the action mirror. After 8 to 10 minutes, the entity stop of turning and then appear 67 instances of that error message.
What does this message: "Error: Creating memory mapping", means anyway?


EDITED: I removed the shader and after 10 minutes, the message appeared again. Now, I will remove the mirror action of the floor.

EDITED Again: Only panels and an action with a while loop that rotate an entity. The error message still appears after 10 minuts.

EDITED ONE MORE TIME: Now the only thing that I have is panels, nothing else. And that message still appears.

PS: This only happens if I start and don't make anything else.

Here is a screenshot of the error message. This time, I start a new level with a hollowed block and cbabe inside of it.

Quite strange. This is not an error message by Gamestudio.

A search on MSDN and Google for this message gives no results, so I doubt that it's a Windows message either. Check all resident programs on your PC that do something with other running tasks, for instance virus scanners and so on.

Does anyone else know anything about a program that might issue this message?

Questions:
1. How much memory do you have on your system? If you have very little, you might run into problems. The fix is simple (if this is the case): buy more memory.
2. It seems like you have a lot of programs running in the background that could be draining your memory to nothing. Try closing up some of those programs or removing those that you don't use through msconfig. Be careful with msconfig though as disabling certain startup items could make your system unstable or hard to work with. You can turn off reminders (provided you've already registered), printers (if rarely used) and various other things. The essentials are your antivirus program, antispyware scanners, your firewall, Systray and Explorer. The rest can be turned off without too much worry. If you don't know what it is, leave it checked to be safe.
3. Have you run a virus or spyware scan? There are plenty of viruses out there. I cannot identify your operating system (it's not XP or Win 98 for sure as the styles don't match).
4. If none of the above seems to be the cause, what version and edition do you have of 3DGS?

ulillillia,

I have 512 MB of memory and OS is XP with all the effects turned of.

A lot of programs running?


You are wrong! I only had Wed or Sed, a firewall, and a antivirus when that message appears. Thanks about the information about the msconfig, but I am quite comfortable with it.

Yes, I do that every day.

And to see this error message, I only have to run the engine and wait for 10 minuts without doing nothing. If I move the mouse or play, or do something inside the engine, the message doesn't appears.

Jcl, I will turn of the antivirus and firewall(But I will be off-line while I'll do that. ) and test it again.

But it says on the task bar, acknex.

Ah. That's what I have which is sufficient.

Looking at the bottom left near the start menu makes me think that you've got a lot of programs running. I forgot that that was the quick launch bar and are not programs running in memory. The stuff near the clock, however, are programs running in the background (in which you have few of). Sorry, my mistake.

Automatic scanners obviously....

I was just asking those questions to seemingly rule out memory-related problems. It seems like your issue is more complex and thus outside my realm of knowledge. What's your nexus set to (just out of curiosity)? Perhaps your system specs?

I had a similiar problem with the Glider Demo - cause dby the memory leak which was reported here not too long ago.

After starting the engine once, I used to get endless error messages saying "Der Parameter stimmt!" in bold font, then the system crashed. It was related to this memory leak, and the new Gilder demo did not have this problem anymore.

ulillillia,

I guess the Acknex engine doesn't like or my antivirus or my firewall software, because I turned them off, test the engine for 20 minuts and no error message. I am at the office right now, but when I arrive home, I will test on another machine to see if I can reproduce this over there also.
About the nexus... Default amount. And my system specs... Look at my signature.
But thanks anyway.

By the way, if you want to see if you can reproduce this, my firewall is Sygate Personal Firewall and my antivirus is AVG free edition. Both of them are free. And if you want to try this, just download and run, then just make a new level, put cbabe inside of it, build and run and just wait more or less 10 minuts.

I used to have AVG free edition, but I've always had problems with it. When an automatic scan runs, any time you use the menus in any program, an error occurs and the only way to fix it is to restart the computer. AVG version 6 was better. Version 7 is seemingly unstable (And you can't contact support either unless you have the paid version thus I've abandoned them and went with Norton System Works (not a free version).). I have Zonealarm for my firewall (free version). I don't think I've heard of Sygate. 10 minutes seems like a long time though. Due to an annoying bug with these forums where all forums seemingly are marked as "read" when there are some I never visit (like the templates or Higher Languages forums for example).
