Did you install any mods recently? Where did you download it?

Holy crap that was fast, I downloaded it from http://appsbay.net/?p=6378 So it comes with DSL 2.0

I'm at 90 % now so.. This version that "JoeBlo" Will crash? D:

G.K. · « **Reply #8 on:** March 15, 2010, 12:06:37 PM »

Only the second one. The DSL one should be fine.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #9 on:** March 15, 2010, 12:11:22 PM »

its worth a try as I use that one of S32's all the time ?

G.K. · « **Reply #10 on:** March 15, 2010, 12:12:51 PM »

Oh ok, I remember reading that it crashed somewhere.

kcdowdy · « **Reply #11 on:** March 15, 2010, 12:15:04 PM »

Question.. If both files (JoeBlo's And Sages) Are both 89.0 MB exactly, Then.. What exactly doesn't crash them?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #13 on:** March 15, 2010, 12:23:01 PM »

changes within the program files (we do it a lot) or corruption

also what error message are you getting ?

kcdowdy · « **Reply #14 on:** March 15, 2010, 12:42:08 PM »

Well, I deleted it, 90% again so, I'll tell you when it's done in about 2 minutes.

Weird, I just downloaded that S32s version and it worked fine, the funny thing is that the URL of S32s link is the same as the one I uploaded.

kcdowdy · « **Reply #18 on:** March 15, 2010, 01:48:21 PM »

So, Screwed around with a bot, And i'm back from 5 epic battles, So.. Can anyone teach me on DSL? =3

Take screenshots and make a showcase. That is the easiest way.
