Crengine 3 SDK sandbox editor Crashes [FIXED]

[Tisky]

So, i decided to learn some newer technology so i can start working on my portfolio. Installed Cryengine 3 SDK and launched the sandbox editor but it keeps crashing!?

Does anyone know why? I run Windows 7, 32-bit and i get this error message when it crashes:

Can you attach the Editor.log file that you'll find inside the SDK folder? That other error doesn't help really, but the content of the log should

[Tisky]

Don´t know if this is right but anyway:

I believe its 64 bit only, may not be true.

Edit: C2 SDK was 64 bit only, so CE3 SDK should be fine. Ignore me

The log is not reporting anything interesting, which could mean it's not a problem with your SDK setup, but rather with the drivers. What drivers do you have installed? I found this in the release logs of the latest SDK build:

"NOTE: The 32-bit version of Sandbox/Launcher may not run with the latest NVidia graphics drivers. We apologize for this problem and recommend you use the 64-bit Editor/Launcher if possible. If you'd still like to use the 32-bit executables, you can download the compatible 275.33 drivers for 32-bit Windows Vista/7"

Dannit, ill try that tonight. I got a new gfx card together with battlefield three, gtx 570. Got the latest drivers so it might be the problem .

[Vilham]

reinstall?

[Tisky]

reinstall?

Well it kinda didnt work ever so i dont think its the install.

[Tisky]

Well, the driver installation failed.I´l probably install UDK instead, don´t have time for this

[Teto]

Hi!

Before you quit : Is your sound device in 5.1 ? In this case, don't seek further, and change it to basic stereo. Crytek's team is working on it.

[Tisky]

Wasnt the sound .

[Teto]

So... what ?

[Tisky]

So.. today it worked. I have no idea why though! :DD:D:DD:D:D:D:D Now i gotta send naked pics to HP so he gets me the Eat3D dvds for free.

[Teto]

Pleased to read that !
