As I said earlier: Consult the old problems thread and post the exception data.
Whats the issue with your SVN client? Are the resources checked in or something? The HEK should open the tags as read-only and work fine still (as long as the operation isn't write-related, ie importing)

for the SVN client, I never use it, I installed it for when i was working with a UT3 team a while back, and never uninstalled it when I left. This is the first time it's ever interfere with anything, my normal HEK tools work fine, it's just any of the OS ones which gives me a problem.
Kornman, Masters told me on AIM that the file which was giving him problems is msvcp90.dll. I don't see how it could be a conflict with another app, though. I didn't ask if he installed the redist package yet.Quote:

Right click > View technical details. Copy everything and post it in a quote. (Edit: Oh wait Kornman had that in his post.)
Visual C++ won't open it and mentions somthing about different versions of Visual C++. Has Kornman used a different version to the 2005 version that was required for the 20081116_1350EST.rar release? Kornman stated which version of Visual C++ you needed in his release post then, not so this time.
I guess I should say thanks for the shout out?
:D
Excellent work :D. Plenty here for people to bug you about.
Had a problem with the shader_postprocess_collection in guerilla, as adding a second effects block made it crash with "error: couldn't resize tag data" in the debug.txt.
Also the "afxres.h" header file included in Halo1_CE.rc isn't included with VC++ Express as it doesn't support MFC (apparently), so is it a necessary header or can it be omitted?
EDIT: If CheApe has a project open and you close OpenSauceIDE it asks if you want to save your project twice and exceptions with the following in the debug.log:
It doesn't do this if you close CheApe first and then OpenSauceIDE.Code:26/08/2009 22:14:32 OpenSauceIDE 1.0.0.0 ----------------------------------------------

You need VS2008 to edit the source. I'm sure you can edit the solution and project files back to the 05 format without too much hassle.
Change shader_postprocess_effect_source_code_data's "isTextData" attribute to false (or just remove it) and rebuild your CheApe project. Of course then you'll have to use that old TagInterface lib if you want to do anything with those tags...I'll see if I can figure out whats causing the problem and if I can fix it later.
Yes, you can exclude the .rc and afxres.h from your project. The only reason I had them setup was so you could include version information in your DLL.
Coincidently, the only way I ever exited OSIDE when testing was by closing CheApe first...guess subconsciously I didn't want to face the pending doom lol. I'll fix that case for the final.
Just checked my code and realized the import process only was checking for my library's own internal base Exception type being thrown, so I'll be sure to extend it to check for any type of Exception.
EDIT: also (to anyone), if you're receiving ANY problems with the tools, please include exception information. If you can't copy the exception information, at least to a print-screen of the message. It's the only way to help me track the problem remotely or try to reproduce it to debug it!
Check bottom of the first post for an updated test DLL.
Now instead of squashing in another direction, the hud just moves about 4 pixels. No change in shape or size.
As for the .dll itself, it works fine with basic CE, but if I use a shortcut with -vidmode 1680, 1050, 60 it loads with only the fog color as the screen. I.e. the library ui is a solid dark blue with the menu choices, and maps are light gray or so on.
