ceramic pot crashes dmap


grayman

Recommended Posts

I added a boatload of entities and models to my map yesterday while decorating. Afterward, dmap crashed.

 

It took an hour of debugging to determine that decorative/vases/pot_ceramic_open was the culprit. I created a new map with a single room and this vase in it, and it crashed dmap.

 

Is there a list of known problems such as this?

 

Or is this a surprise?

 

dmap crashes right after the message "FixGlobalTjunctions".

As far as I know, it is not yet known. Could you please add it to the tracker: http://bugs.angua.at/my_view_page.php

 

Thanx!

Well, I went to add to the buglist, and I don't see a "new issue" button. So I assume I have to log in to file a new issue. Tried to create a new account, but the visual check thingy doesn't work. In Firefox, two words with a total of 14 chars are presented, but the form takes no more than 5 chars, which isn't enough. I tried using IE, but that didn't even show the words to enter.

 

So either someone needs to explain how I do this, or someone needs to do it for me.

 

thanks

I think the module that does captcha broke when Mantis was updated a week or so ago, certainly doesn't return anything to me.

 

For now I'll just verify the issue over here and try get some more details, else I will get the info from you. So should be a ticket in a few minutes :)

 

Edit : Just tested, crashes when dmapping, report going up now.

 

Thanks for the report!

So it crashes for you too when you have that pot in a map?

I remember having a similar crash last week. It seemed to be related to DR-autogenerated inverted end caps, the ones that are so useful for archways. I created only two, copied, rotated and resized them a few times wich chrashed dmap.

 

Rebuilding them manually out of a normal patch fixed the problem. Twice. Just reporting this in case it is related.

 

The "FixGlobalTJunctions"-message was not the part where dmap failed -- it just took very long there (minutes). Waiting revealed it was actually a malloc error.

Fixed that problem. The captcha generator was referring to TTF paths it wasn't allowed to browse.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
