Error: Gaming file corrupted

Post by Camila »

Hello,

I am getting the following error only when I try to run a model in Game mode, otherwise it works fine:

ERROR: Unable to open the file x.vdf.vdf.
ERROR: Gaming file x.vdf corrupted.

I don't know why it has an extra ".vdf", the file is created by Vensim, not an existing one...
can you help me solve this?

Thank you.

Also, is this a venapp, or just a model? If the latter, the first places I'd look would be (a) the simulation control dialog (Model>Simulate menu), Changes tab, Based On field, (b) simulation control Advanced tab, Data Sources field, and (c) the filename passed in GET VDF functions in the equations, if there are any.
