      I wish I knew why this started happening to some folks. I havent changed anything that would make it fail like that. The code in question is the same code I have been using since SP version 1 like 4 years ago.

      As far as I can tell it thinks there is a group with absolutely nothing in it. Which might be possible if you really tried. But it should NOT just start happening on a known good model. Argh!

        It's not happening to me and I have XP sp3 like javixp. How are you downloading the file. Are you using firefox too.
        Did it happen right after you downloaded the modified controllercommands file.

          When i downloaded the controller commands, it worked, now though, SP just stopped working.

              Can you make your own models. Or did sketchyphysics just quite working absolutely.

                I can make my own, but whenever i save or open a model, it does an error.

                  I have the same issue, and I can only make my own models (not download)... CPhillips, maybe it is 'cause it isn't saved in the HDD, as I understood.

                      Something good happened, download Hobbnob's tank and turn hidden geometry on, delete the two rear hidden boxes, turn hidden geometry off. Play the animation, it works. 😄

                        JaViXP, go to Window>Outliner, and double-click all the objects names'Group', then, when you get to an empty one, click on the background to get the SP working 😄

                            Well... To be honest I didn't do anything and it worked 👍

                              The code might not get rid of the problem forever, but at least you can download and play other models

                                Mr. Planet's problem has been fixed. I was able to help Mr. Planet locate the "empty group" using the outliner, and i was able to fill that group using ruby code. This may work for Javixp. You must find the name of the group, which in this case was "----". simply put this code into the ruby console.
                                ----.entities.add_line([[0,0,0],[1,1,1]])
                                the '----' should be the name of the empty group.
                                Thanks to CPhillips for pointing out to me that it was indeed an empty group. And thanks for showing me how to make a group using ruby. i was able to decipher the code and i figured out how to put something in a certain group by specifying the name of the group. By locating the group's name, i could easily fill it. Problem Solved.

                                  Yeah, I downloaded your "Scripting Fun" and it didn't work, but I opened the Outliner and it did... 😄

                                    Ok. We finally have a clue about this. But I still cant figure out the problem. When I load the simitar model and look in the outliner I cant find a group that doesnt have anything in it. Did you fix the model?

                                    I need a model that fails so I can find out why it doesnt fail for everyone. Then I will be able to sleep nights.

                                      I don't believe that the scimitar had a model error. Mr. Planet's problem was caused by the plugin, loft(chris fullmer). I'm not sure why, but Mr. Planet sent an error report. I'm not sure if JaViXP's problem was caused by loft, though. All I know is that there is something that creates an empty group.

                                        Here you go Chris, hope it helps (Model by Platypus5, i just added an empty group.)

                                            Why did you repeat something Physicsguy already said. Anyway, outliner may have deleted that group (I believe it checks each one) due to it having nothing in it.
