edited 2009 Dec 31 in Technical Support
Hi

Some days ago i installed Windows 7. After that i of course immediately went to http://www.dengine.net to download beta 6.8. i installed it and tested it, and it worked fine. Then today i downoaded another version (Beta 6.4) to run use as... actually i don't really know why i installed it... But i didn't saved the game as the default "Doomsday" folder, i renamed it to "Dengine". i thought it was smart but when i tryed to start any of them they came with the
    Sys_criticalMessage: Main window not available.
message, when i press "OK" the message repeats 2 more times. When i press "OK" 3rd time it says
    Error creating main window.
. I uninstalled the dengine version and deleted the remaining folder, i went to the "Doomsday" folder and started Snowberry. In pressed play and the message is still there...
i have the verbose message at level 2 but there is no "Doomsday.out" file...

          • Sounds like you have ended up with user config files from the earlier version being used with beta6.8 What you will need to do is look in your user dir and delete them manually:

            Delete the following directory
            c:/users/<user name>/Documents/Doomsday Frontend
          • I'm sorry but it doesn't work... i've tryed several times but the only change is that i need to go through the setup wizard again...
          • As I am unable to see your exact configuration and what files have ended up where; the best course of action I can suggest to you is to completely uninstall all versions of Doomsday on your system and then install beta6.8 again.
          • it still don't work... i deleted the "doomsday" folder the "Doomsday Fronted" and used the "windows uninstall a program" function...
