Make sure there are no files in your "userlib" directory.    .....\AHedit\userlib

If there is remove them and see if that fixes it.
If all the other editors are working for you under Win7 the the Object Editor should as well.

empty folder, nothing in it.

Went through this checklist just now midi everything is there the object editor will instantly freeze up with a object editor has stopped working. The other 2 programs will 'eventually' work until you go to actually do anything then it will lock up.

The odd time I will go back with new updates and try this stuff again, I can tell you that the object editor has never ever worked for me thats with vista and windows 7.

MrMidi I think when Oak is saying you should make it user friendly what he means is it should actually work, not how it is laid out. The other editors even the film viewer sometimes although to a lesser extent you get the feeling they are all teetering on the edge of locking up when you use them.

all fixed with new editor. life is good again! thanks to everyone for trying to help.

[captain1ma]

i was wrong, i went away for 2 weeks, and now it doesnt work. all i did was leave my machine running.

[mrmidi]

Even after rebooting it?

uninstall, reinstall. uninstall aces high and editors reinstall. reboot after installing every piece. uninstalling all, cleaning registry, reinstall. nothing works! its the frigging weirdest thing.

[captain1ma]

ok, next episode in the saga. i reloaded aces high on a D: drive by itself. object editor will come up one time and one time only. when it does come up, there is nothing listed in shapes. i dont know if this matters or not. it also does it on my windows7 machine at work too. yes im running windows7 -32 bit. also made sure none of them were "read only".

[mrmidi]

OK have you run the fix that adds the object shapes for the object editor.

Also  You do NOT have to reinstall the editors AND the GAME  they are independent of each other. You can build a terrain without having the game installed.

still dead even with the fix. installed a new drive, and downloaded it to that. still no worky. this is very frustrating.

That editor just dose not like you, Jeager.

[captain1ma]

installed it on a different machine. dell dimension 4500 pentium4 3.0, 2gigs of ram, 320 gig harddrive. windows7. did not work.

reinstalled windows XP on same machine. all set now. works on XP machine.  just kind of a drag to have to use 2 different machines.

[captain1ma]

i know its been awhile, but i finally fixed this problem. for some reason it didnt work on win7-32 bit. i just reimaged my machine with win7-64 bit and it seems to work fine. very goofy but it works! yaay!

Yayyy!
