Which version of windows are you using?

Does this happen with other builds?

Try the build Sticks released for the white blocks problem. It's newer then this one. If that build works, this isn't a permanent problem and only build related.

It's while in Fred 2, not the main Freespace 2 program.

Sorry for that, I didn't read too well.

I'm assigning this to Goober as it's a FRED bug, and FRED seems to be his baby now.

I'm not the models guy. Sounds like an OGL problem, in which case it would be Phreak or RandomTiger's department.

try the newest fred build:

I haven't noticed this so i'm not going to be of any other help. Also make sure you're running with -fredhtl since you may have had hi-poly models loaded.

Ok, I've tried the new build, 08282005, but still get an application error everytime I turn on the model. I did fond out that the farther (approximately 14000 meters) away from the ships I am, the problem goes away. I have also been thinking, could this be due to having too many ships, or textures in a view of the mission? The reason why is I have noticed that when I reach a certain point in adding ships, where this problem accurs. Thanks for your time, BTW.

Forgot about one thing, I do have C++ as my debugger, would it help at all for you to know what is going on in the code using C++?

I think you may not have -fredhtl as a fred command line. theres not a launcher option so you're going to need to create a shortcut to fred and add "-fredhtl" at the end of the "target" box

That seemed to have worked thanks all for you help.

ok np. I'm going to add a popup warning if -fredhtl isn't found that will warn you that using high-poly models may cause fred to crash.
