I'm getting random exception errors with U6.6 and the latest PhySX drivers (7.11.13)
Anyway, there is no fixed pattern for them, and all parts of the program work ok.
This happen to anyone else?

Post your program (compiled). I'll see if I have any problems.

Ok. I guess it uploaded ok.
The idea is just to have fun blasting the colored globes. You have to match your target color with the color hi-lighted
on the panel at the bottom of the screen.

No problems here. I killed about 10 spheres, spammed shooting, and walked around really fast, but didn't get any PhysX exceptions. No problems at all. Nice game, actually.

What are your system specs? If they aren't a problem, have you tried reinstalling your physx drivers? Latest video card drivers, etc...?

Thanks for trying it.
I'm using a XP 64X2 Athlon/ 1 gig with 6100 integrated graphics, but I get about the same performance you report.
I'll try your suggestions, and see what happens.

Thanks BillR and culmor30.
On my system, the error occurs in darkphysics.dll, so I guess
thats the TGC component, and maybe needs updating.
Glad you like the game.

JerBil,

I noticed that my version of PhysX broke when I installed the latest DBPRO update (6.7), not sure if it was anything to do with it, I just re-installed the PhysX driver and everything works as it should.

Thanks, Virtual X, but I found the problem.
It seems that when the game was restarted at the end, it needed to be completely re-initialized or it would crash. It's fixed now, and I'm working on some improvements as well.
