Fiesta Fan Forums

So I went exploring Outspark's tech support for an answer to this problem I've been having. Outspark tech support's usually pretty good with problems - relatively responsive and somewhat thoughtful though not informed. Except with this one. My problem is that Skype keeps closing down whenever I'm using it with Fiesta. It just closes, as though the process is being forcibly ended by task manager. It's really strange. I assume it's X-trap since both Blackshot and Fiesta share it, and the problem is experienced between the two as well. Surely not a coincidence.

As you can see, I'm not the only one experiencing this problem. Unfortunately all the replies are all the same. The guys just shield themselves from any responsibility in relation to it, and say it's the users fault or Skype's fault - not X-trap nor any of their clients.

It's bewildering but funny too. Here are some of the more inspirational posts I found.

This is Bug Reporting for Blackshot, not Skype. If Skype has a problem running with other programs I suggest you report it to them.

um, x-trap doesn't block skype. CSR Joker uses it all the time while playing with the GL's.

this issue is most likely caused by skype itself or windows. since skype is malfunctioning, you should ask the skype tech support for help.

just a guess, but i think you probably have a sound card that can't support both programs at once so it is shutting one down.

it sounds like you are having a skype issue, not a fiesta issue. i doubt that fiesta is closing skype, it's most likely skype itself or windows doing that. have you tried contacting the skype tech support? since the issue is with skype, that is where you should start your inquiries.

I think it's the MB or GB you have in your computer...because if it's not so strong, it may not hold both at the same time. Just in my opinion but I'm not quiet sure...

Okay so maybe a few of those were okay - but Outspark could at least look into this a little more thoughtfully rather than turning their heads the other way.
