RGSS Player Not Responding on Windows Vista

[crzyevilpandagirl67]

ok,  i've got a number of RPG games on my laptop,and for awhile they worked just fine, but for the last few months everytime i try to run the program (any of them,even as an administrator),it would say "RGSS Player not responding" and shut the entire thing down.  So far,  I've already tried to alter the command script to fix it, but it didn't work.  Someone wanna give me some advice before i pull out the sledgehammer?

Hmmm....What RPG's are these?

[crzyevilpandagirl67]

ummm...I'm not exactly sure what you mean but this happens when i try to run games on my computer like aveyond 1&2, and they worked just fine a few months ago

He means what games are these ? ?

[crzyevilpandagirl67]

these are RPG games that are downloaded on my computer legally such as: Eternal Eden, Aveyond 1&2, and Ahriman's Prophecy.  I don't have a backup of these games on any CD

Yeah fixed it on my pc the games are made with rpg maker xp I'm actually trying to do this now on another machine it involves adding or changing 1 file on ur c drive as soon as I find out which file I'll post again on how to do it.

[Lumpy Hippo]

Ok here it is ..... In the folder with the game there is a dll file called game.ini double click it or open in notepad. One of the lines should read Library=RGSS102E.dll or Library=RGSS100J.dll which ever one it is switch it to the opposite.

[crzyevilpandagirl67]

Finally someone gave me a new idea!!!  Just wish it would work right.  Okay the game screen is now actually showing for a few more seconds than usual when i changed it to RGSS100J.dll but now it says it can't locate the file....ughhh *censored* vista

Download it http://mystro-games.tripod.com/downloads/rgss100j.zip there. (For future reference if say this post is 2 years old and this link is dead just google the dll file and you'll find a download for it.)  Yeah for some reason the rpg maker installation forgets to install this file. Technically it doesn't need it but if you are playing a game that was made on a version b4 the official translation (Like Emu or Postality Knights or the Japanese version) it will look for 100J instead of 102E.

BTW where do you get these games from b/c I've seen people make cool scripts and stuff for the program but I've never seen anyone actually create a full complete game w/ it.

http://aveyond.com/  all the games were made by these pplz.  thanks sooo much for your help!!!!

[crzyevilpandagirl67]

ok I give up!!!! This is ridiculous!!! I downloaded the file thing and put into the game's file and changed the notepad thing again, and the program's window showed up black for longer than it normally would, but then the whole "RGSS player not responding" thing again!!  My computer revels in my frustration I think.

Ok I downloaded the game and it works for me. We have the same exact OS version and game version. I was looking at the files that install with game and I realize that they comes with a the RGSS102E.dll file so change back any game.ini files that you changed to RGSS100J.dll and if you removed the RSS102E.dll put it back in.

Right click the Aveyond 2 Icon (The one with the sword) and goto compatibility tab and under Compatibility Mode Check Run as 'Windows XP SP2'
and under privilege level check off run program as administrator.

If this works do this for any other games you have in the mean time I'll try and recreate the problem.

[crzyevilpandagirl67]

ugh, I guess I forgot to mention beforehand that I've already tried changing the compatability of the programs without success...srry dude, I don't mean to shoot down all your genius ideas so far...my computer just chooses to drive me insane

[Lumpy Hippo]

Ok dumb question but I should get this out of the way now did try reinstalling the games?
Also are all if the games causing this error?

Also I was looking at the error report and the Fault Module name : StackHash_1703 is the name of he file causing the error.
I checked and I dont have this file on my computer I have the creator used to make the game and aveyond 2 and neither of them have the it would have to be one of the games unless it was a shared file which was accidentally deleted. The only other solutions I can think of would be cleaning your registry wit something like Ccleaner (free download)

But search your computer especially program files for StackHash_1703 so I know where the problem is coming from.
