OK, just a few hours ago I was toying with my Eversion map, and UEd was running smoothly. Actually, the only time it has crashed on me today was when I tried (both times) to run my map in the In Editor Game (although I think this is a map problem, I ran other maps- both stock and mine- and the In Editor Game ran fine. Also, I was getting this problem a while ago).
But now, UEd won't start at all. I click the icon, the splash screen comes up for some time between 5 and 30 seconds (it varies), then simply closes. In the Task Manager, I notice when this happens, the UT3.exe process ends and Doctor Watson debugger pops up momentarily. There is no error message thrown by either UT3.exe or Drwtsn32.exe.
I have not installed any programs since I last ran UEd. When I ran it the last time, I edited a "hellfire" emitter and re-published the map to see it in-game. I then closed UEd and opened UT3 to play the map- I noticed the fire emitter had not been updated when the map was published. I gave up for the moment and hung out on Hedsteem for a bit (I don't have the map packs, so UT3 DLs the maps/mods as they're selected- this may make a difference). I played UT3 for a few hours, then I exited UT3, moved ny published map file from the published maps directory (in case UEd wasn't overwriting it during oublish for some reason), then tried to open UEd- which is when the problem started.
So, tl;dr:
The only changes to my PC that I know of were:
-whatever automatic updates (for instance, an Avast! virus database) that were downloaded- I don't think there were any
-whatever was stuck in the RAM after a long UT3 session (shouldn't make a difference)
-some downloaded maps/mods from Hedsteem
-I moved my map out of the published maps folder. (I moved it back in afterwards, and UEd still didn't work- also, if this is actually causing the problem, UEd is retarded)
It would reeeeeally help if I had an error message, or at least a call stack, so I could see WHERE the fracking thing's stopping.
I've got to go to bed now; early class tomorrow. Hope to see lots of useful replies in the morning
[EDIT] Forgot to mention: a reboot does not solve the problem.
