Massive uh-oh in the downloads

Still testing the GUI in French, so far so good. But something's wrong with the FM "Illusionist's Tower".

TDM crashes on me when trying to view the details.

 

Crash on the first download:

ModelGenerator memory: No LOD entries.
pure virtual method called
terminate called without an active exception
signal caught: Aborted
si_code -6
Trying to exit gracefully..
pure virtual method called
terminate called recursively
double fault Aborted, bailing out
shutdown terminal support

 

It's worth noting that the temp file is there. It just doesn't get mv'ed to _missionshots. Subsequent crashes give the following error. Sure enough, the jpg has been touch'ed (previewshot_holetower794.jpg), but isn't the screenshot one may expect:

 

Shutdown event system
--------------------------------------
Sys_Error: Not a JPEG file: starts with 0x00 0x00

shutdown terminal support

 

Darkmod.log after the last crash:

Anyone else experiencing this? Is it specific to the localized version? Is it because it's a png? Do eletric sheep dream of androids?

Please note that the "localized" version is very very experimental :)

 

As for the screenshot, it might as well be that it is a PNG and not a JPEG as expected by the code. Can you try with a v1.06 and reproduce the issue? If yes, then please file a bug report :)

No problem. That's why I'm saying it. I'll downgrade as soon as I'm done with the final save bug. ;)

Issue 2878 submitted. Unsure about the priority and category, not my kind of ticket. ;)

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
