Basics sprites and tilesets to build a platformer game or prototype
  • Just checking if anyone else is experiencing this as of late?

    Either after C3 crashes, or sometimes for no reason in particular, I'm getting a "Failed to Open Project" on my current game. It's happening for me almost daily, sometimes multiple times per day. The way to clear it is to empty my browser cache cookie data (using latest version of chrome) then reopen c3. This is annoying bc then I lose all my backup settings, etc.

    I'm really starting to think something is funky with my project file because I'm getting tons of crashes, especially with the instance bar, but it's a pretty standard project (using events and saved as project folder, no add-ons, most recent stable). I'm struggling to recreate any of it on a simpler c3p to create bug reports. I really want to figure it out though bc it's driving me crazy!

    Figured I'd put this out there and see if anyone else is having the same issue so we can try to diagnose.

  • Try disabling any browser extensions you have installed. Often the cause of mysterious crashes and glitches are due to browser extensions interfering with Construct.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • Thanks Ashley -- I disabled all my browser extensions, reopened Chrome, and then C3 threw the error my first try re-opening! Lol.

    The 'EH' TypeError is actually the same error I'm seeing when the instance bar crash happens. Can share the crash logs if helpful.

  • It looks like it might be something to do with the Instances Bar. Unfortunately it's usually impossible to help without more details, so I'd recommend filing an issue following all the guidelines as we generally need all that information to be able to help.

  • Will file when I get the chance! Having trouble recreating on a smaller project.
