why is my game crashing?

General_DisArray · Post by **General_DisArray** » Thu Mar 27, 2003 4:22 am

help. everytime i test my map(by myself, noone else in it) the dang thing crashes when i through a grenade, smoke grenade, or even when i initiate the trigger for my wall to explode.

at first i thought it might be something i scripted in my map. but i took all of it out. no luck.

i have done the logfile tons of times and get similar error messages. if there is anyone who can decifer this file, i would appreciate it. i have posted something like this in another forum, but still no luck in finding a solution. i have a couple of these qconsole files that i can email out.

i am at the end of my rope right now. i am 99.99% done with this map, and DO NOT feel like starting over. NO, I REFUSE TO START OVER, there is a simple solution to this problem.

thanks in advance for the help. and i apologize for the steven king like novel of a thread!!

You don't have to restart man! Just check the console if there's any errors. Or try removing custom pk3s.

i have looked at the console. i have no idea what a lot of it means. that is why i have saved the logs to see if anyone can tell me what the heck it is saying and how to fix it.

check this out though... i think(crossing fingers, knocking on wood) i might have found the problem. i took out some func_crate(s) out of my map, and it didn't seem to crash. at least yet.

have you encountered any trouble with this entity?

it is weird, the map would crash after i threw two grenades at the same time. after i took out the crates, i threw 2 grenades, shot the mg and blew up a wall and it ran like a top.

this is definitly a scalp scratcher.

Post a screen of the console, write down what it says.

yer console is the way to find out, it's usually pretty coded but it generally gives you an idea of what is hapeneing, like last time i compiled my map it loaded about 3/4 of the way then exited to main menu, so i opened console and did it again, and found it was a faulty door, so i removed the door and i haven't yet had a chance to get it compiling again (takes 2 hours, and this is a pretty small map really, it's my first major one that is really going to be any good at all, but it's a start, but anyway, i agree with rox, look in console, take screenshots or write it down, also one thing to try is exactly what happened with my door: instead of going through the proccess of drawing a new door and all i just copied the brushed, functions are very particular when it comes to copying, so if it is the crates (could be possible) redraw them them individually if you have not alreay done so

Do you have any custom pk3s in your main or mainta folder?

General_DisArray · Post by **General_DisArray** » Thu Mar 27, 2003 5:53 pm

custom, as in other people's maps or sound modification and skin mods.

i have a couple of other people's maps. and i think 1 sound mod. and yes i tried taking these out, but it still crashed.

General Specific · Post by **General Specific** » Fri Mar 28, 2003 8:58 am

here are the things that are most likely to have caused the crash, in order of the likliness of it causing the crash (i.e. the ones i think are most likeley to have made it crash are first)

1.:RE_RegisterModel: R_AllocModel() failed for 'vsssource_new.spr'
2.:LOCALIZATION ERROR: 'blew up' does not have a localization entry
3.:LOCALIZATION ERROR: 'NPCS: Allies 0(0) Axis 0(0)' does not have a localization entry
4.:Error, no script should be loaded before loadout.scr.

most of them are based on the fact that MOHAA can run on a warning, you can usually get away with ignoring warnings, but when MOHAA displays the word <b>error</b> it is serious.........

the final cause could be ananomous as it may have caused the crash before the console had time to record the error.

mohaa_rox · Post by **mohaa_rox** » Fri Mar 28, 2003 9:23 am

As we stressed many times, localization error doesn't affect anything.

Post by **jv_map** » Fri Mar 28, 2003 1:47 pm

Error 4 is also nonsense, so it should be error 1. (never seen it before)
