hey all....

i have a new PC since a week or so (with windows 7), downloaded NewGen (here in the forum) and tried to start it to work on my map but it always says "An instance of World editor seems to be running already" >.< i tried restarting the PC but no the same message for me...:( anyone knows why?? or is it just because NewGen isnt working on Windows 7??

thanks in advance

Unfortunately, I don't know what your problem is :(
However, NewGen works fine for me (With windows 7), so there is hope!

Try running as admin or using compatibility mode?

It should work on 7.


Try opening the Joblist (CTRL + ALT + DEL) and click on "Processes" (or something like that, not completely sure)

Then find a process called "worldedit 121".
Just click on the button in the bottomleft to be able to start NewGen.


If that doesn't solve your problem, try right-clicking on NewGen, and select "Properties", then click on "Compatility" and choose "Run this program in compatility mode for: Windows XP (Service Pack 2)"


If none of that works i have no idea.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
