Blit3D keeps on saying : "Error Writing File : 'C:\Path\Blitz3D\tmp\tmp.bb'"

If you have not saved your source code anywhere then Blitz uses a default location. This is normally a file called tmp.bb in a folder named tmp. The full path and name is usually something like C:\Program Files\Blitz3D\tmp\tmp.bb, but can be somewhere else. In your case Blitz3D is looking for C:\Path\... Does this actually exist? If you can't get this default behavior to work then save your code manually. You would have to do this anyway with code you want to keep.

No. Path = Path to Blitz3D root directory.

Did it used to work? When did it start producing this error? Have you or perhaps some errant utility deleted the Blitz3d\tmp folder? If so just create a new folder called tmp.

was your blitz dir dragged from cd? is your config file's write protected, i had same problem after backing my blitz dir to cd. think its that folder. if not check your other dirs, for write protected files.

try setting the readonly tag to off on the blitz files, when dragging files from a CD the files are transfered as readonly for some reason.
