Yikes! You need notepad++, and it is free...

http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm

After getting that program, open the file with that, then paste 5-10 lines or so. I want to know what in the world caused that huge file!

sorry to pull a 1up on you, but i've just got this;



[PS:] no, it's not 'shopped, and i didn't fake the file either. i'll happily provide it as proof if challenged (but it'll be *.7z'ed, as there's no way in hell i'm uploading it raw).

can you open it? Im no programmer or anything but I deleted mine as it took up alot of space.
btw how can an error report be bigger than the game?

Ouch. I've never seen an error file that big. That's almost like the math errors I make at school.

Could it be that one of those "infinite loops" went out of control?

i'm pretty sure it's because the trunk i'm using is missing textures (maps are plain white with decals littered about the place). my FPS is also an order of magnitude lower than before.

i haven't yet been bothered enough to look into what i've done wrong.

[PS:] i tried opening it with VS2009 but it had a cry, i'll try Crimson Editor now and see if it'll fare any better (it won't).

[EDIT:] CE died as it hit the 2GB addressable memory limit.

I didnt use the trunk

use this - he posted that for a reason...

I believe TextPad is known for its support of large files. It's proprietary, but it has a free trial: http://textpad.com/

I'm pretty sure Notepad++ can't handle files that large.

well - i have used notepad++ to open very large txt files.... it takes awhile - but does work very well.

"Very large" is relative. In the multi-GB range, I believe Notepad++ starts to have some trouble...

Then again, everything has problems opening plain text files in the Multi-GB range.

Unless you make a special purpose editor.
Don't give me any ideas

No, I think TextPad works fine in that range. That's why I recommended it.
