I've got a problem with some of my models randomly freezing up Freespace. It appearts to be occuring randomly. Sometimes I can complete a mission and then it'll lockup before I can even jump out and other times only a minute or so into the mission. Freespace debug isn't reporting any errors, and I know the center for each subobject is centered, which I thought was the cause. I'm not sure if it's my models or the way freespace is handling my models or what not. :(
I'm not sure what information you need, I'll post details if you need them.
-
Do your fighters not have dockpoints and you're giving them to allied AI? That's a sure-fire problem, if that's the case, as they need to be able to reload.
-
Yes I believe so..
pof docking $name=rearming dock with one docking point and it has two points
Last time I had the docking error problem it crashed to desktop, this just locks up (except music keeps playing ok) freespace2, sometimes I can bring up taskman with enough view to be able to kill fs2, but not always...
btw i'm using 3/23/2006 build.
-
Ah, a hanging issue. Definitely run a debug build and see what it tells you.
-
If you are having problems with hanging, crashing or other such it might be better to run the FS2 in window..
From launcher: Features -> Dev Tools -> Run in window
-
Ugh now debug is complaining about this:
What is a possible cause of this?
Warning: Unable to find WEAPON_LIST_TYPE string "" in stuff_int_list
Many possible sources for this error. Get a programmer!

Eww. Mind posting up the table entries for your ships?
-
Oh oh... don't like that "eww" LOL
I don't know if this is causing the lockups but it's a good idea to get rid of all possiblities.
This table is quite old, so there might be a bug in it that never manifested itself in earlier builds. Sometimes I think maybe I should have just use the default FS2 weapons.

#END
-
I was thinking ships.tbl actually. You'd probably be better off testing one at a tiime (make sure the ships work with Freespace weapons first, then test the weapons) but the table there looks ok from a quick read-through.
-
How strange... I was trying to find out which ship was causing the problem, the bearcat or the ajax.... when i ran the show off mission (with just that one ship) no error, when i ran it with a modified FS03-06 mission error. Then I replaced Alpha wing in Lion at the gate (like I've done with the other ship models) and no error came up. I'll test to see if the bearcat still crashes on that mission latter tonight.
-
It could easily be a mission bug. The module that reported the bug is the parser and it's used all over the place (thus the error message) so mission isn't at all suprising.
-
Not so good update. It's still locking up on a variety of my fighters, not sure I can be making the same mistake over and over again. I was able to play it in debug mode, albiet less than 10fps :shaking: and it didn't crash on the same mission/ship and I didn't see anything too unusually in the logs, just a bunch of frame too long stuff.
-
Quick question: how many polys are your fighters, and how many maps do they have total? I doubt it could be something as simple as the models themselves, but it's not out of the realm of possibility. In particular, the complexity of the shield mesh has been known to cause issues in the past.
-
LOD's are usually ~2000ish, ~1000ish, ~700ish, ~100-200ish
texturing usually includes 1 or 2 large (1024*1024) res images, and a 9-10 smaller addons (pilot, cockpit, HUD, gun, exhaust..)
now the shield mesh could be causing the problem... Raptor for example has about 900, however if it was the shields causing it, would you think that the problem would first manifest during the first collision test, be it gun/missile or physical collision?
-
If it were the shields, it could happen almost arbitrarily. The older versions of the 3ds plugin was terrible with shields and crashes with them used to be a regular occurance. IIRC, those were really random too. The rule of thumb with shields is that they should be triangulated and be as low-poly as possible (900 isn't terrible, but still higher than I'd like). If you want to test that, just turn the shield off in the tables and run the mission as usual to see if it still crashes.
Also, performance is going to suck with all of those maps, so you really should merge all the trim stuff into one 1024x512 or 1024x1024 map and adjust the UV space to accomodate.
-
I never really got the 3ds max plugin to work very well, usually just crashes...
UGH looks like it's back to the drawing board for all the fighters then with the texturing then. Does it help much that each subobject had only one texture?
-
Sorry to inform you, but I got bad news, I redid the shielding, lower the count, still locked up. I disabled shielding and made all friendlies invun. still locked up. :confused:
I also compacted the misc textures down from 9-10 to two, I didn't notice any speed improvements. :-\
-
Don't like to bump an old theard but...I reduced shield poly down to about 130 reduced textures and I still get random lockups. :(
-
At this point I don't know what to tell you. You've made every optimization I'd ask one to make and it hasn't done any good (though you'll find your time is well spent when you're dealing with a lot of your ships; the slowdown from one many-mapped fighter isn't intense but it does compound). I'd say start with the absolute basics; a clean install of FSO with no extras. Place your model and its textures in the appropriate places and replace, say, the Myrmidon (or a fighter with an equivalent bank configuration to yours) with yours in model only. If it still crashes, then the model is to blame but I would have no idea why. There's also still a chance that this is a table error of some kind, so you might try running a debug build in a window. At the very least, the last line in the debug spew should offer some clue as to what's happening.
I'd also suggest trying the Max plugin some more; it can be a pain but it's worth it to not have to go through Truespace.
-
I haven't followed the entire thread, but maybe I can be of some help to you ? You sure that the missing dockpath isn't causing the problem ?
We could try to run the model through truespace, but I will need a textured 3ds-version to do so. Also I can take a look at your table/pof-data if you wish

A missing dockpath was the first thing I suggested, and he already is running it through truespace. Posting the POF itself may be useful at this stage, because I think we've pretty much ruled out geometry issues,
-
Well I can say it isn't my weapons nor sound table thats causing the problem, I removed them and set the vampires weapons to kaysers only. FS2 debug doesn't report any error dialog windows. Actually playing the game with debug is kinda difficult, especially in window mode, 5fps is a bit difficult to play.
Heres what was included during the last crash:

Can't download it (maybe I'm to stupid to work with that download side). Could you please use our FTP, that makes things much more easier :)

The error, if it's in tables, would be in ships. Things should be robust enough to not crash though. As for the line I was hoping to get out of a debug build, it would have been the last line in that second window that pops up when you run debug at the time of the crash (the only way to see it is with -window, unfortunately) as that would at least maybe tell us where the game was dying.
I can't download the file either, so I presume that site has some nasty bandwidth constraints. Could you e-mail me the pof+textures if you can't find a more accessable upload space?
-
A little bit of good news I hope. I renamed and disabled the media vps and two of the missions I've played so far haven't crashed. Hopefully it's either the way I was using the vp's or the vp's themselves. I'll need to do further investigations, turning each vp on/off to see if they are causing it or not.
*Crosses fingers hoping this was the cause.*
Edit: So far the last seven missions went off without a hitch :yes: I was using some of the media vp's thruster images for weapons effects, dunno if that was the cause or not...
-
I had this problem in MT. I am trying to remember it...
If I remember correctly, which i may not, it seems that the problem occurred when an AI was targetting a subsystem on a Modded fighter, and the pof data didn't coincide with the table data. essentially, you had an ai trying to target a subsystem that didn't exist, i can't remember why it didn't exist though. It was in the pof, and the table, maybe someone more well versed and with a better memory can take it from there.
