    • Error message


      I haven't been around here in a while (Within a day here I got my karma lowered for the first time, heheh) and a quick search showed me the movies Stark has uploaded for PoG which I never got to see before.
      I downloaded them to my computer and watched them seperately. (Kind of overhyped, aren't they?) I added them to my date folder like the readme said to and started playing. I got up to the point where I get to enter the Learning Tree for the first time. The movie began playing, but after about 2 seconds into it an error message popped up (I didn't bother reading it) and the game quit itself.
      The worst of it is that it didn't save and I had been planning on saving right after I got into the Learning Tree. Ironic, huh?
      Anyways, I only lost about half an hour of playing time since I last saved so it didn't bother me too much (Still annoying though) but I'm worried about the movie.
      Not knowing where to post this message I decided to put it here on the boards.
      I know the best solution for my question, which is how do I get it to work, would be to take the movies out, but I wanted to see if this question had come up before. (I wasn't sure what to search for, so I'm innocent on that count) I also thought it deserved a mention for possible a future update or something.

    • It would be important to know what the error message said. Perhaps you do not have enough memory set aside for PoG to run the movie. It works just fine for me and I think it's kinda cool. Try it again (save before getting to tree) and tell us what the message is, then maybe we can help. ~RD

    • I am running the latest version of PoG. I'll get back to you later with what the error message, but it can't be due to insufficient memory because I'm running on Windows.
