Pete
Yes, that is why someone suggested I look at a previous thread and try this solution.

Re: Returning to Links

As has happened to many guys before you, one of your .SKY files is corrupt. The only way to find it is to take all of them out of the folder, and add them back one at a time , starting Links after each one. That's the only way to find it. Pete Thanks, I'll try that tomorrow.

Re: Returning to Links

Adelade, I tried the sky fix as suggested, and the default sky works. But when I move my sky files back, the problem returns. So, not a long-term solution. I don't understand why I had no sky problems years ago, but now it seems to be permanent if using custom skies. And I've tried 15 - 20 different...

Re: Returning to Links

[...] I had a gnawing feeling that we had discussed another cause for the power of 2 texture crash in the forums in the recent past, and yes, I think I found it. Follow the advise of this post by Andy: https://linkscorner.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=2876#p2876 and the crash will likely go away. The c...

Re: Returning to Links

I am using an HP desktop - screen resolution 1600 x 900. Links is set at 800 x 600 x 32 bit. Two questions: 1) Can you go to ''Options/Graphic Settings" and set "Display Mode" to 1600x900 x 32bit and "Full Screen"? 2) What model # is your HP desktop (for research purposes)?...

Re: Returning to Links

Adelade,

My computer will not allow me to download those two files. I get that message and then I cannot find a way to download them.

The crashes have occurred on every course (6-8 so far) that I have tried. When I play, I have no other programs running at the same time.
