Hello, relative FRED noob here.
I've installed TBP 3.2, 3.3 and 3.3a in that order, i also have openAL.
Problem is, i cant get the game to launch with ANY build except the 367 build. And when that launches, i have some serious game 'hangtime' as one user put it who had a simular problem. What i mean by hangtime is that the whole game lags up for about 30 seconds to a minute, even 2.
When i try and run ANY recent build through debug mode, it stops at the openAL.. and then i get the whole "has encountered a problem and needs to shut down."
I spent the last 2 hours trying to figure it out, i searched through your forums for any problems related to mine; only finding one mention of the mouse 'hangtime'. That user seemed to fix it by choosing another build, i cant seem to get any of them to run.
My specs are
AMD 4400
nVidia Ge Force 7900 GTX 512
Win XP Pro
I do have the Freespace Open Build installed, but since TBP is a standalone, i dont see why there would be a problem on that end..
any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
