Hi all
My PC died so I had to get a new motherboard to fix the problem.
Reinstalled the OS and UT ofcourse!
Tried to open UED but get the attached error message.
Help?

Re: Cannot open UED - crash message
Alright let's try out a few things.
Have you tried opening different kinds of maps? Default maps?
Have you tried setting compatibility settings?
...google the error?... lol that's all I got from top of my head atm.

FIXED!
All by myself.
Sort of.
Win 7
Right click My Computer > properties > advanced system settings (on left menu) >advanced tab > performance settings > Data execution tab.
Add unreaded.exe to the list and reboot PC.
Done

Re: Cannot open UED - crash message
^^ Glad you got it solved that way.
It's set the same here for like more than a year after I first got that error, sometimes I think this has to do with the updated opengl renderers I installed back then for ut99.

Re: Cannot open UED - crash message
heliumcat, UEd2 completely ignores the new renderers and you are stuck with SoftDrv.SoftwareRenderDevice.
...unless you edited the ini files and swapped the window renderer to a different one.
I have this in my UT ini
[Engine.Engine]
WindowedRenderDevice=D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice
and in the UnrealEd.ini
[U2Viewport2]
Device=D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice
Using new renderers in UEd means you can edit with compressed and hi-res textures
If you are having a problem with UEd, I recommend keeping a dedicated mini install for editing, and play UT from your full loaded folder.
I use this handy repack called "Unreal Editor 2.1 Extended Standalone edition"
http://hof.entre-okc.com/forum/topic.as ... IC_ID=2466
UnrealEditorv21Setup.exe - 291MB
http://www.ut-files.com/index.php?dir=U ... eveloping/
http://unrealtournament.99.free.fr/utfi ... eveloping/
You can add the folder locations of both installs in both main ini files, so you don't have to duplicate files.

Re: Cannot open UED - crash message
Changing rendering devices here didn't fix it sadly enough and UED21 got flagged as "malware" by Avast here unexpectedly:

Re: Cannot open UED - crash message
I suspect Avast is seeing it as a false positive, as it cannot have unpacked it remotely.
Unfortunately the file is too big to check with VirusTotal
I do know however that all uploads to UT-FILES.com are scanned for malware.
I just rescanned and unpacked the copy I have, with the next Avira Pro (I am a beta tester), and it passes as clean.
If you are happy to trust Avira, then perhaps you may want to try downloading the copy I put in my MS Onedrive

Someone needs to report it to Avast.... *Done*
https://blog.avast.com/tag/false-positive/
I gave them your screenshot and some info
