crashes when browsing textures on desktop

Post by CyborgPrime »

Hello-

I am running ts7.61b on 2 computers - one has XP-32 the other is XP-64.

If I browse for textures from the Material editor with the Win-32 version, I can select the desktop and get textures from there.

However, if I do this from the XP-64 version, it crashes.

Any ideas?

more info : if I set it to run the ts7 program as administrator then I CAN browse the desktop.

My personal account is set with admin privs - I wonder where I am going wrong?

fixed it...

Right click the desktop shortcut
In the TARGET box enter: runas /savecred /user:administrator C:\trueSpace761\tS\tS7.exe

You will be asked for administrator credentials - they should be saved an you will no longer be prompted.

Please post if you have a better / more elegant solution.

Thanks!
