Weird bug to do with tracks and folders

Post by MattyG »

Generally crashs when a track or many tracks are not in a folder. I think its the misc folder. But when i move the track to any folder in the tracks folder it works. I dont get it?

Sometimes other files not being *.trk can cause this problems.
Tracks with some special charactes can also cause some problems like that.
Or only a new GR.exe ;)

Or you can move all the tracks to separate folders
if you have much tracks in a single folder, GR can crash too.
you can organize it by 25 tracks in each folder, or 50 if you want to. ;)

I don't have problem with this, I got folders with over 500 tracks in them, and nothing happens. But as we could see before, sometimes only a few person got some weird things happening, so well... Matty should check this too.
From my experience, I have to agree with XYY. Eg. one of the latest tracks - Tarumã by Santana caused my TrackTool to crash at startup! Renaming it to simply "Taruma" helped.

The Main thing that happens is when i create or download a new track, and then the track goes in to The main track folder but not in any folders like circuit or street or what ever you have in there. It just crashs. But Thd names of The tracks are normal. So still dont get it. But not to worry, i will just make a folder and put them in there :) thanks for the though guys
