1) you need to provide more detail 2) nobody is going to debug your entire project for you 3) nobody is going to download and open a mystery zip file

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

im not asking for someone to debug the enitre project i have no idea how to fix the error its giving me

Jimmacle•13mo ago

you didn't actually share an error just the line it's breaking on

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

thats all its giving me XD

Jimmacle•13mo ago

it's not

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

yea it is

Jimmacle•13mo ago

StackOverflowException is the error there should also be a stack trace showing what code lead to the error

Gipper•13mo ago

This is just a wild guess so take it with a sizeable amount of salt but in C# stack overflows are frequently caused by an infinite recursion somewhere so if you can think of somewhere in your code where that may have happened, examine it closely

i did i cant really see anything

thos are my 2 scripts idk where that is

Jimmacle•13mo ago

you have infinite recursion your Form1 creates a Settings which creates a Form1 which creates a Settings and so on until your program crashes

Gipper•13mo ago

I am big 🧠

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

so how would i fix that im still new to C# XD

Jimmacle•13mo ago

you need to get rid of Form1 form1 = new Form1(); in your Settings class specifically the new Form1() part you probably want to reference the original form that opened, not create a new one

an image with no context does nothing for me

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

please just help me i mean idk how to do it and im tired

Jimmacle•13mo ago

it's the exact same problem you just had with the other piece of code

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

the problem with the other code was i didnt put a "1" but when i do it with this script it gives an error

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

Jimmacle•13mo ago

you should probably start with a simpler project something that doesn't involve a GUI framework that's doing things behind the scenes and confusing you

PhoenixXeme•13mo ago

maybe your right ill just delete the project

Gipper•13mo ago

dont delete, put it aside and come back later when you know more
