KS Manager crashes as soon as I open it.
« on: August 07, 2010, 01:16:52 »
I've tried opening it from within the KS editor and from its location. I've tried running it in compatibility mode and normally.

Yes, it's in Knytt Stories/3rd Party Tools/KSManager. It worked fine until just now... any suggestions?

Can you give more inforation on the crash itself? A screenshot would be nice of the error, if there is an error.

I fixed this specific error, actually, by deleting the KSManager.temp inside the folder of the level I'm working on. It didn't seem to contain any valuable information...

However KS Manager still crashes every two or three screens I open, with the same error message. I can't seem to trigger it right now but it's very common. It says "Macromedia Fusion Stand Alone Application has stopped working. Windows is looking for a solution to this problem."

It's definitely tolerable, just a little frustrating.

EDIT: Here's a picture.

This error usually comes when the pathname is too long. Can you try moving Knytt Stories to C:\Games\Knytt Stories? (or similar)

does the solution work for this...
After you save the KSManager on the screen, it will take a long time
before you can close it without making it not respond.

Antikythera confirmed to me that it solved his/her problem.

Just waiting for the program to respond is not going to work though.
