Error: STD:bad_alloc while loading Weapon Definitions.

i remember this error from ages ago i think u need to update graphics drivers maybe

[Esch1lus]

No, I have the latest drivers installed, and I've tried with 3 different drivers at the moment.
I tried to create a stacktrace but gdb did not work for me.

[Esch1lus]

Who can help me?

[Auswaschbar]

Did you try other [map|mod|AI]?

[Esch1lus]

I've tried 10 maps, XTA, BA, NOTA, EvolutionRTS, and ALL ais (even void ais)

[Esch1lus]

Who can help me? Still nothing?

[Auswaschbar]

How many memory you have? How much can spring use?

[Esch1lus]

2Gb Ram, for the second question I don't know.

[Esch1lus]

SOLVED: It was a running process. Although I don't know what it is specifically, it could be:

nvmixer.exe, nvidia audio integrated interface;
CTxxx.exe ("xxx" means several processes), Creative Audio related process;
gditray.exe, gdi is a font smoother

[Esch1lus]

Ok, now I got the definitive solution: the problem is ONLY related to gditray.exe.

[imbaczek]

thanks for info.

[hoijui]

yeah.. thanks!
what is this gditray.exe?
maybe it would be worth it trying to find out why it possibly makes spring crash.
I have the feel that it would be good to fill a well written mantis report about this, with one or two infologs, explanation of the whole story, and info about this programm, and stuff about it that may interfere with spring. eg, does it use springs defualt port? (just an example, i guess it wont be as easy as this).

gditray.exe is GDI++, a japanese C++ compiled program designed to smooth windows characters to look like mac ones.

Here's the link:

hmm... this is just a forum with a link to a page where you cna download the binary. doing a short search, i was not able to find a project page or source code or similar. though it was really a short search, and i am tired

[Esch1lus]

Lol, it's really weird. This time I closed gditray.exe and got the error. Then, I closed CTxxx.exe files and it works like a charm. I can't understand why sometimes it's the first files and sometimes the second.
