Repeateable crash with save game

[i30817]

I was experiencing hardlockups sometimes, so i changed the affinity of the wine process to 1 processor only in the hope that it could solve it. It could be one of any: doom3, darkmod, mission or wine itself.

 

So i played some more and didn't experience any crash, until now... Luckily (?) just after saving.

The mission is beleaguered fence. Reloading crashes almost immediatly here. (1 second)

 

I zipped almost all of the things in the mission folder except the mission itself, in the hope it is useful to you:

Hope it helps finding a bug.

Are all of these savegames corrupt? Or is it a specific one where it starts to go bad?

[i30817]

It was just one. It's the quick-save, there isn't any other in the zip. Before i set the core affinity, that lock up was happening without pattern. Now it appears to have happened after i saved (but it is the first time after i set core affinity, it might even not be the same problem).

 

Notice that the save game loads (image appears, music starts, can move viewport for 0.2 seconds). It just locks up afterwards. Tried to go to the main menu, but it locks it up anyway.

I have a dual core, 64 bits if it is important.

 

"Linux XXXX 2.6.35-24-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 2 02:41:37 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux"

And am using the Ati fglrx drivers.

Ah, I see you saved immediately after a lockpick attempt? The idEvent::ServiceEvents() method is firing an assertion due to a NULL object - maybe I can find the reason for that.

[i30817]

So, it is not the same problem (the others freezes were nowhere near a lock). If confirmed, it would appear that setting affinity fixes those).

I've added an item here: http://bugs.angua.at/view.php?id=2502

 

This situation will be fixed with TDM 1.04.

Is there any setting in the tdm_updater to get code inbetween major versions?

[greebo]

Nope.
