Game Crashing?

Hey guys, so this morning when I load my game in the viewer it would get to "compressing game assets" (almost to the very end) and then Gamesalad crashes. It doesnt even load on my phone, the whole program goes down. I figured it was just gamesalad, but then I opened an older build of my game and it works fine? I only added a few actors since then....any certain way to debug this?

    Nope, still goes down. About to enter extreme panic mode :-/

    Its weird because the rule works fine when you play within gamesalad and seemed to work fine last night on the viewer, I have no clue whats going on here.

    Yes, two m4a sound files and a few .ogg sound fx.

    My total ram usage was under 20 last time I ran it, I cant imagine these three actors blew it up over....9000!! But thats what it feels like. :-/

    Save as a new version.

    In the new version, start taking out the three actors one at a time and testing after each one is out.

    When your game restores to normal, you've found your culprit!

    Elementary, my dear Watson!

    QS :D

    Just got a confession from my wife that she was messing with my project this morning! She said she accidentally changed something, and I told her under no circumstances to change anything! And of course she does and now my game is crashing out the wazoo.....ugh.....lol I have some damage control to do when I get home.

    You let your wife make a fee graphics for your game and then they think they should just program it too!

    Ugh.....she says she thinks so. I sure hope so. No Starbucks for her today!

    If worse come to worse....is there anyway I could zip my game file and have one of your guys take a peek under the hood? This is my first game and I've learned a lot but I'm not a pro yet. I might need an outside hand to check it out if I'm not able to fix it today.

    I feel like my house just burned down lol. I've been working so hard on this game for a week :-(
