Hello,

I was playing the PQ demo recently, and although it worked fine at first, I got a message today that said 'failed to open main.cs'. Could you please explain how to fix this?

Thanks.

Does this happen every time you try to play the game, or only after restarting from a crash? The latter would make sense if you're running on Mac OS X, and is unavoidable in that case.

Code:
function clientcmd12dothepq() { commandToClient(LocalClientConnection, '34onthedancefloor'); }

Happens every single time. Also I play on a PC, not a Mac.

Alright. The other possibility is that one of the plugin dll files is missing. It may have been removed by an antivirus or similar.

Check your game directory; you should have:
In the same directory as the exe: ogg.dll, openal32.dll, PluginLoader.dll, vorbis-real.dll, vorbis.dll
In plugins: FileExtension.dll, FrameRateUnlock.dll, GraphicsExtension.dll, MarbleGhostingFix.dll, MathExtension.dll, MBPlatinum.dll, MovingPlatformsFix.dll, ScriptCrypt.dll, ShowExtension.dll

If you're missing one of these, it could cause the game to not load like you mentioned.
