So it makes the .swf? The file size isn't 0 is it?

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

...Oh motherfuck, it IS 0! Goddamnit.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

I remember having this problem once too, but I don't remember the fix. Try some Google-fu maybe?

Check task manager when you're trying to compile and see how much memory java.exe peaks at.

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

Hrm. Well, here's my output log, anyway:

It says there's an error during initializing, so... That's weird. And so far, google has been unhelpful for finding anything; three years ago, some people had the same bug, but that bug was supposedly patched.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

How much RAM do you have on your system?

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

I'm on an old Surface Pro 3, with 4GB of RAM. I'm pretty sure I have enough RAM, but... well, obviously I'm wrong about something.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

4GB would definitely be cutting it close. The compiler can realistically use around 1.8GB by itself. My system with the compiler running, a few chrome tabs going, FlashDevelop open, and Word open is using 6.2GB.

OH! One idea that might work. Go into task manager and kill java.exe. Now try to compile again- it will say it succeeds but it won't. Now here's the magic, try to compile one more time without doing anything fancy.

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

Task manager doesn't show java.exe, or anything Java-like. Also, worth mentioning, compiling happens in less than a minute. Which I think is very definitely not supposed to happen.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

Make sure you hit "More Details", and if it's not under the "Processes" tab try the "Details" tab, and click the "Memory" column to sort by memory usage.

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

Already did, still not there. This is weird as hell.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

I agree. How much available memory does task manager say you have?

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

1.6GB out of 3.9 total. I'm gonna try restarting my computer, see if that helps any.

EDIT: It did not. I'm gonna uninstall Java and re-install it, see if that helps.

EDIT 2: It did not help. Fuck it, I'm gonna go write the flavor-text for this project.

TayJK · Jun 10, 2017

*Buys Horizon a Keurig so he can have some Java*

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

The time you got the really long output I think was the closest you've been to having it compile.

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

Alright, I altered the jvm.config for the other SDK and switched over to that. Now the error is with TiTS.as in Classes. It says I can't nest packages, and also that there's an issue with line 2. Which contains a single curly brace.

I'm gonna turn off chrome for a bit, see if I can clear up some memory for when I get this shit working and compiling; probably gonna need all the RAM I can get.

EDIT: The issue became "Java ran out of heap space, at 384MB." I changed the jvm.config to allocate a single gigabyte, just to see what would happen, and so far it seems to be working. Still compiling right now, though.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

It should work with 1GB, just take longer than with 2GB. I guess if you don't have 2GB and that makes it error that's your best option.

That one's easy. It can't find your flash.swc.

Horizon The Transient · Jun 10, 2017

Alright! Well, after a lot of trial and even more error, it works! And, naturally, as soon as I compiled the .swf and opened it up, I discovered that exactly none of my modifications to the code did a goddamn thing.

Upcast Drake · Jun 10, 2017

Gratz! If you make any files in the /includes folder you have to manually import them in TiTS.as. Other than that, I'm not sure. I'm signing off for tonight though.

Nenawisc · Jun 10, 2017

Following your backandforth I have also been able to solve things on my end.
I can now compile the basic code, yeah^^

Now to fuck it all up when I try to make changes

That's your flash.swc not being configured correctly. You should post in the main thread tho, this one just had a few possible fixes from before.

DrunkZombie · May 9, 2018

If anyone else is having the issue with the file size being 0, set FlashDevelop to run as administrator, that fixed it for me.

Also had to use 1024 for the jvm config instead of 2048 even though my laptop has 16gb of ram. A limitation of the x86 Java version maybe.

Oh neat, Google says the 32 bit is limited to 1.6gb, the more you know.

Hi, so I've recently tried going through your "Guide to Using TiTS Source Code" as well as this article and keep getting errors when I try to "build" the game and I am unsure these errors are happening. They look like this...

Did you download and add flash.swc or w/e the extension is to your FlashDevelop?

Krypto · May 30, 2018

Upcast Drake said:

Yeah, I have the flash.swc file (Right from the forum post) and believe I have it set up correctly in the Project properties under Compiler options and then "SWC Libraries". I grabbed the file path straight from the search bar of my file explorer and then double checked again to make sure it was correct.

EDIT: I eventually found out what my problem was... when I was changing the SWC Libraries I thought I should replace the file paths that were already there. Upon realizing "Hey wait, that was a dumb mistake, why would you do that? It was probably there for a reason." then after adding back what I deleted everything worked fine for me.

Thanks for helping me out anyways though

Nyseron · Mar 13, 2020

Tried following the guide but got stuck.

"Install it, then when you first open it there should be a window called "AppMan" with a bunch of optional stuff to install too. Check "Flex SDK + AIR SDK" and allow it to download."

However, there are no options anywhere on the AppMan program. It's blank.
It says "Item list could not be loaded" and I can't figure out what's causing this.
