[r279] Crashing with the latest internal build of Stronghold

Post by **Tormentor667** » Tue Dec 30, 2008 19:12

It crashes after starting a new game and where it should switch to STR01, crashlog attached. By the way, I get countless DECORATE errors of missing actors that I didn't get some releases before, what has happened there?

What has happened? Quite simple: I greatly enhanced the error checks of DECORATE code to find such things. Previously they were silently ignored.

Okay, that's of great use

I found several bugs now that I haven't even been aware of

The crash happens in the SBARINFO drawing code but I can't reproduce it. The game starts fine.

EDIT: On the FTP I can only find 185. Where's 200?

That's strange... I haven't even defined a SBARINFO. Conc. 200, looks like it got lost, I will just upload the latest build that still produces this bug

Irony.

Anyway, I put r281 online earlier today. It might be worth checking to see if it still shows the problem.

Works for me, except that a few maps grind my computer to a crawl. STR30 is particularly bad and the fast scrolling sky makes it worse.

Tried it with r281 of GZDoom and b213 of Stronghold, no difference. The problem seems to occur when I switch from one map to another, for example at startup, TITLEMAP is running and starting a new game switches to STR01. If I launch the game with -map STR05, I can play STR05 until I finish the map and would automatically switch to MAP99, same crash. This also happens with "map" and "changemap" in the console.

New crashreport attached.

It's just too big, Torm. Just too big. *tease*

In any case, yeah, it does work perfect with previous versions of GZDoom.

The crash occurs when the statusbar tries to draw weapon info but the player doesn't hold a weapon. I fixed the immediate cause but what I don't understand is why it doesn't crash for me.

EDIT: Crash only happens when ZDoom's original fullscreen HUD is active. I never use that.
