Game crashes immediately after loading

10.8 doesn't work, putting water to basic doesn't work, nothing in this thread works: http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=23874

I'm at a loss, don't know what else to try. help would be cool.

I got similar crash. http://pastebin.com/wqbZ5Tja
It crashes when in windowed mode.

Also when I want to host a game it crashes immediately. http://pastebin.com/BZHTSt39
NAT port forwarding set properly... ofc

Using TASC 0.87

[Hobo Joe]

Still happening...


Also, this did not happen in .82.1

[losbellos]

Hej, I dont know if its exactly related but the latest version of spring crashing all the time for me. It is very rare that I able to finsih the game without crash, I try to roll back the driver to 10,7beta. THat worked after all.

Only thing working for me is 10.8 but with 10.8 i cant play videos on youtube and flash keeps crashing.

[losbellos]

Rolled back to 10.7 beta, same thing happened but at least I played some rounds. Seems to be less unstable with the 10.7 driver

[losbellos]

okay, I decided to put aside the game for a while. I feel bad about that it when I wait sometimes half an hour and it is crashing again and again.
I will check in time to time. Thx.

[Hobo Joe]

Found out the crash was caused by clouds. Random, but glad it's working now.

[losbellos]

what options do you use for the clouds

edit, it seems to be better for me too now with the dynamic clouds, and the high resolution clouds off

[Super Mario]

How dose the clouds render exactly?

[losbellos]

Well, until now...
hehe...

[losbellos]

seems that dgun crashing it in some moments

I just knew the crash for ATI can be map specific. I'm still on old Catalyst 10.3 and running FolsomDamSpecial gives me a crash. But for once! Next run was ok.

[Gota]

OK i installed 10.8 deleted all my codecs and codec packs and ran ccleaner.
Now flash works and i can run videos fine and of course spring also works.

by the way windows xp 32 here with ATI 4850

[losbellos]

just wait a few days, and see.
Me still crashes but I had one successful rejoin which I never had before.

I posted this in a few threads but need to let people know.

Try disabling AA, it worked for me and 1 other, think it could be another Spring specific ATI bug.

[hoijui]

it is not spring specific, but ATI OpenGL.
that you have other OpenGL games that do not crash, does not mean that it is spring specific, but that these games likely use other gl techniques (for example, no AA, or no AA in combination with X).

[liamdawe]

Sorry choice of wording poor, i know about OpenGL being a bit buggy on ATI i meant that it's just another issue.

Didn't mean to say it was springs fault.

But at least for people getting the crashes i have found out exactly what causes it.

[Machete234]

I fixed my crashes by setting everything to default in springsettings.
However now i dont have any textures on the models. (grey)

Use Cat 10.7 ES2 beta or Cat 10.8 WHQL.
