Title: Help - A noobie keeps crashing! (the game, not my ship! :) )
Post by: Thrawn123 on January 31, 2009, 11:05:59 pm: Hello,

I hope this is the right place to post this. I have recently purchased FreeSpace 2 from gog.com and am using the freespace open mod to get the awesome graphics, but am experiencing random crashes. FYI, I think I've done all this correct:

I've installed the 3.6.10 mediavps to a subfolder at C:\Games\Freespace 2\mediavps.
I am using Launcher 5.5d
I am using nightly build 3.6.10 from 1.29.2009 currently

Basically, randomly, I crash to a pure white screen where the OS says the game has stopped responding. I have a feeling the video driver is crashing, but could be wrong. Once I close the application, I am back at my desktop.

I am running Vista x64, q9450, 8 GB RAM, 8800 GTS 512 with the most current video drivers and a Creative X-Fi.

Any ideas would be appreciated. This game looks to kick MUCH ass (makes me remember tie fighter and X-wing), but it's a ***** having to try a simple mission 6 times just to get thru it without crashing. ;7

Thanx in advance.

Post by: FUBAR-BDHR on January 31, 2009, 11:18:36 pm: Try downloading the MediaVPs again and doing a manual install: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,58230.msg779019.html

If that doesn't fix it run the debug build and post the fs2_open.log from the data directory use the code tags or attach it under the additional options

Post by: Thrawn123 on February 01, 2009, 12:10:37 am: Thanx for the quick response. I cleared out the mediavps folder and redownloaded. However, I am still getting crashes. Here is a paste of my fs2_open.log

Thanx for the quick response. I cleared out the mediavps folder and redownloaded. However, I am still getting crashes. Here is a paste of my fs2_open.log

*snip*
Nothing really strikes my eye in that log. The MediaVPs should be okay, because corrupt MediaVPs would cause the game to crash at specific points and not just randomly. I'd recommend making sure that all your drivers (most importantly graphics and audio) are up to date.

Could you be more specific? How does it not start up? Does it crash all the time? If yes, where? And is there and error report? Does the game just freeze? If yes, at what point does it freeze?

Post by: Jeff Vader on February 01, 2009, 07:10:27 am: Nothing? As in, it doesn't even go anywhere from your desktop? Could you take a screenshot of your \freespace2\ folder and post it here? Preferrably so that all the files can be seen.

Title: Re: Help - A noobie keeps crashing! (the game, not my ship! :) )
Post by: Jeff Vader on February 01, 2009, 08:07:37 am: Open your \freespace2\ folder.
Adjust the window size so that all files (or at least all .vp files) are visible.
Press Alt + Print Screen (may also be written as Prt Sc on your keyboard).
Open an image editor. Even the basic Paint will suffice.
Press Ctrl + V .
Save the image.
Post the image here as an attachment.

Okay but am I missing anything?

EDIT: Didn't work. It's running according to my task manager..but nothing shows up. Freespace encountered a problem and needed to close.

No.

Which version of the Launcher do you have? 5.5d is available through the link in my signature. Also, what does your launcher6.ini say?

Post by: Jeff Vader on February 01, 2009, 03:17:38 pm: Disturbing indeed. Where'd you get your FS2? Also, you could try running the debug build (the one starting with "fs2_open_3_6_10d"). If it can generate a log to \freespace2\data\, we'll know that the game starts at least up to some point. If not, there might be something wrong with your operating system / computer.

Hello,

I hope this is the right place to post this. I have recently purchased FreeSpace 2 from gog.com and am using the freespace open mod to get the awesome graphics, but am experiencing random crashes. FYI, I think I've done all this correct:

I've installed the 3.6.10 mediavps to a subfolder at C:\Games\Freespace 2\mediavps.
I am using Launcher 5.5d
I am using nightly build 3.6.10 from 1.29.2009 currently

Basically, randomly, I crash to a pure white screen where the OS says the game has stopped responding. I have a feeling the video driver is crashing, but could be wrong. Once I close the application, I am back at my desktop.

I am running Vista x64, q9450, 8 GB RAM, 8800 GTS 512 with the most current video drivers and a Creative X-Fi.

Any ideas would be appreciated. This game looks to kick MUCH ass (makes me remember tie fighter and X-wing), but it's a ***** having to try a simple mission 6 times just to get thru it without crashing. ;7

Thanx in advance.

I've been having this same problem. I have all the up to date drivers and latest version of FSOpen. No one has really come up with a reason or solution to this problem.

I also have a 64 bit OS and 8800 GT SC It could be the 8800 though, lots of people have problems with these cards.

Post by: --Steve-O-- on March 17, 2009, 02:19:10 pm: i guess this is where the fist shaking occurs so here goes....

just tried plugging in the newest batch of 3.6.10 stuff, (MVP and execs for build #5097 from the nightly build ) and when ever i try to load up some missions in Fred the thing panics and spews all this gibberish at me.
now these missions worked just fine with MVP 3.6.10 beta and one of the earlier 3.6.10 exec betas (pre build 4893 i know that much) so i just want to know what is going on here, and how do i correct it.

Post by: karajorma on March 17, 2009, 02:25:28 pm: That one is probably my fault. I'll take a look at it now.

EDIT : Try this build (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,61214.0.html) and this one (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,61232.0.html). The first one will probably work while the second one fails.

Post by: Circ on March 17, 2009, 10:33:26 pm: This is happening a lot now. FS Port crashed a few times but Silent Threat Reborn is crashing like crazy. I've had to redo almost every mission at least once or twice. Same thing every time, something is crashing my video drivers.

Post by: chief1983 on March 20, 2009, 01:37:09 am: I have a X3350 Xeon, which is basically a Q9550, a 8800 GTS 512 (same as the first guy, but which is probably a different chipset entirely from the 8800 you have, so again it's probably not related), and 4GB of ram running Vista64. I also have the latest 185.xx drivers, and I don't experience any crashes like you guys are referring to. You could try tweaking the options to see if a given combination causes it, specifically try disabling glsl in the launcher settings under Troubleshooting, and pick and mix the graphics options too. Also Circ, run the debug version of the exe (something like fs2_open_3_6_10d*) from the launcher, and post a copy of the fs2_open.log from the data folder.

I created a back up of the original missions done on the build i was using befor i tried to upgrade. when trying to save the missions failed on a certain build i would dump them and import a new copy of the backups into the missions folder and try again with a different build.

on a similar note, i just tried using the recent release candidate build for fred to see if maybe that would resolve my problem. nope. fred would open the missions (a new copy of the backups) but when i would try to save them....error message.

so im figuring that salvaging older build missions is a no go, unless i go in and manually replace the lines FRED is freaking out about. Any pointers on that?

Post by: karajorma on March 25, 2009, 12:26:41 pm: I think I'm going to need to see one of the missions. PM me a link and I should be able to solve this pretty quickly.

EDIT : All three missions worked perfectly well in FRED for me. I got some complaints about missing ship and weapon mods but no crashes. I'd suggest removing the ;;FSO 3.6.10;; sections with notepads search and replace and then trying again.
