Editor crashes when attempting to run it?

[RisingEdge]

Everytime I attempt to run the editor, I get the message:

UDK.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

I clicked to view the error report:

AppName: udk.exe AppVer: 1.0.5860.0 ModName: kernel32.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.5781 Offset: 00012afb

I am attempting to run this on an XP laptop.
Any solutions?

Thanks

Check your launch.log file, located in /logs. It should have some pertinent information.

[Solid Snake]

Ensure that you meet the minimum requirements, particularly in the GPU department.

Also reset your PC after installing the UDK. Helped me out ;)

C:\UDK\UDK-2009-11\Engine\EditorResources\FaceFX\Logs?

That is the only log folder I can find, and inside is only a placeholder.

[Daniel Vogel]

There should be a UTGame\Logs folder that holds a Launch.log file.

i have the same problem, except i get
ModVer: 5.1.2600.3541
think it is because my computer sucks, but is there anything I can do besides get a new computer??

i have a similar issue when i try to run the editor. my os is vista 64

I get this same error on vista 64 as well... can someone find a solution please?!!?!?

[antila]

I have the same problem. The editor crashes as soon as i launch it. It just says "UDK.exe stopped working" after a few seconds.

I'm using Windows Vista Business SP1.

Here's the error from my Launch.log


Critical: appError called: Assertion failed: wxXmlResource::Get()->Load( *FString( GetEditorResourcesDir() * FString( TEXT("wxRC/UnrealEd*.xrc") ) ) ) [File:c:\depot\UnrealEngine3\Development\Src\Launch \Src\LaunchMisc.cpp] [Line: 118]

Well since my thread didnt get any replies..
I'm having generally the same problem, only mine says 'Kernalbase.dll' is the fault.
I dont even have a log file, trust me. I've looked and used the search for it. Its just not there.

[Linkinworm]

restarting didnt seem to help, guess this being beta sounds about right

This would infer a bad download or possibly a bad .NET35 install. Have you tried verifying the md5 checksum?

This relates to your video card/drivers - if your GPU is up to spec, try updating the drivers.

Big thanks :)

I hope it's ok that I post here, as the problem seemed very similar.
It's been crashing for me aswell, once the UI has barely been loaded up.

Yes, a re-install solved the problem for me, even though I tried that before and the md5 for the file i just downloaded and my old install source were the same.

Maybe it had something to do with the install paths. Maybe that call doesn't like hashes in it or something.

Old:
C:\dev\#lib\UDK\UDK-2009-11

Working:
C:\UDK\UDK-2009-11

Anyway, thanks for the help John!

The link is now http://files.aoaforums.com/I3199-setup.zip.html

This should have been installed as part of the prereqs - did you skip the 'official' install?

i have a similar issue when i try to run the editor. my os is vista 64

I got the same problem ,anybody knows the reason?

[desigpa]

Also reset your PC after installing the UDK. Helped me out ;) restart? is that what you mean? I'm not sure resetting the the computer would be any good.

[Benny]

I have this very same error :



Error loading .xaml resource dictionary from file
c:\udk\udk-2009-11\binaries\win32\..\..\engine\editorresources\wpf \resources\contentbrowserstyles.xaml];
reason[The tag 'dropshadoweffect' does not exist in xml namespace

Running vista 64 , same as the others with this same problem . It still occurs with this new beta 2 version . Turning off the virus checker makes no difference , nor disabling UAC . The .net framework installed is 3.5 sp1 . All the pre requisites all loaded in ok. There isn't much in the way of applications that could interfere with it at the moment , it's on a new hard drive with a new Vista re-installation , definitely has no game installations on there to cause it to go wrong .

[Benny]

I fixed the problem . It is a .net 3.5 issue . Some .net verification applications report you have it installed ok, others report you do not . So I found an app that required .net 3.5 sp1 and tried to run it and it wouldn't work. Proving it definetely wasn't installed ok . So I took out all versions of .net on my computer and re-installed them over again . Now it runs ok , no errors reported.
