jcsnider Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 IF this was EO, we would tell you to install the run time files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 @Rydo:> So basically your saying if i had the exact same problem with EO you would help?Stable has a shit-ton of bugs which were never fixed. If I wanted I could go around helping everyone who uses ES to fix these. But I don't have that much time.Instead I made EO to replace ES. It has none of the problems associatied with ES. As such anyone using ES is on their own. We support EO because it's the only one which isn't bugged to high hell and we don't want to spend our time walking people through fixing problems when there really is no point.I mean seriously, what's the point me fixing this for you when your game is permanently gimped from an unstable socket system?
