I've got a problem thats a pain in the ass, but im pretty sure somebody here has the answer for me.

I recently started switching computers. First, because my brother and dad always wanted to use my computer to do work, and so I was constantly getting kicked off. I switched computers.

So, I got onto a g3 imac, things went well, i got new forms, and then we got a new computer, and got rid of the imac. I emailed the forms to myself from my imac, downloaded them, and they work fine on my new computer (a mac, running OSX).

However, I tried to play on my old computer, the one my brother and dad used to kick me off of, and realized my forms sucked. So I downloaded the email on this computer, uploaded the forms, put them in the formations folder in local, it asked me if i wanted to replace, I said yes, and I thought that would be that.

When I tried to use my forms, they were the default formations. Normally I'd just open fear and make formations from there, but every time I try to open fear I get a message that says "An error of type 12 occured blahblahblah." I would just reinstall fear, but I can't find my myth CD.

So Im on a g4 power mac running os 9.2 and OS 10.3 on seperate discs. I play myth on 9.2 because OpenGL runs slowly on os 10, so I can use the RAVE engine instead.

anyway, whatever, im not being very on point.

I'll try to sum it up.

I emailed myself forms from my g3 imac running 9.2, downloaded them from 10.4, they worked, downloaded them on a different computer in 10.3, put them onto my os 9.2 disc, they didn't work. Downloaded them from 9.2 and they still didn't work.

ANybody know what to do?

first off all, install myth on the 10.3 :) not on the classic part of that comp

second,... no i do not... sorry :(

on the faer issue: i used to have the type 12 too i think, or another error that appeared every time, even with a fesh fear install from my cd, also in osX>classic, while it worked in os7-8-9 from that cd. The way i solved that was have haravikk mail me his fear application. After that it worked. You might want to try that. Once that works you can do your formations on that computer directly....
