Snow Leopard: Official build crashes on loading [SOLVED]

Hello! I am new to Spring, and I am trying to run the latest official Mac build (84.0). The game launches just fine, so I downloaded and installed Balanced Annihilation v7.60 and one map (Delta Siege Dry). However, whenever I start the game, it crashes on the loading screen immediately after "Loading Radar Icons".
I looked at my log file, and here's what I found:
Code: Select all
[f=0000000] Loading Radar Icons
[f=0000000] Error: Segmentation fault (SIGSEGV) in spring 84.0
[f=0000000] Error: Stacktrace:

Changing the AI script a couple times did not seem to do anything. Is this a problem with the game/map I installed, or is this a problem with my install of Spring?

Try to put this on your .springrc file (in your home dir):
LoadingMT=0
It should work.

Yes, that did work! Thank you. :)
So then (apparently) multithreading is not yet supported on Mac/Snow Leopard, and must be disabled before the game will launch? Seems like MT should be disabled by default on the Mac version, if it's not supported yet.
EDIT: I actually changed the setting from the Spring main menu, instead of editing my ".springrc" file. So apparently changing the setting in Spring works as well. I changed the "LoadingMT" value to 0 in the settings panel, and successfully started the game without Spring crashing.

side-note:
it is only loading-MT, which means, you will have single threaded loading. this setting has no effect as soon as you are in-game. it is a rather unimportant thing.
there is spring-multithreaded, though even that only separated some drawing stuff into an other thread, and is not as stable as single threaded spring.
-> you dont miss much.

Ah, I see. I thought it was going to affect more than that. Good to know, thanks! :)

85.0 crash in the beginning of the battle
Zero-k
infolog.txt
apple.log
.springrc:
InputTextGeo = 0.480042 0.805000 0.02 0.300000
LoadingMT = 0
ShowPlayerInfo = 0
Version = 5
I think it is because of the second graphics card. Intel

I think he got it out from the crashreporter. If a program crashes, you get information about it and can send it to apple, to improve the programs.
I don't know how Apple wants to improve the programs of third party developers, but that's another story.

You can install windows on your mac. Windows works well with this game!

this development build should print more useful stacktraces:

(can't try for myself)
imo installing windows is no solution...

Balanced Annihilation works fine, but there is Sync Error:
unitsync.log
infolog.txt
Zero-K crashes:
unitsync.log
infolog.txt
apple.log

the desync is expected, because its a different version. sorry, should have said that you can't use it for online play :-/.

hmm, but hoijui says that if spring minor version changed you can play without desync. so, it is 86.0 not a 85.0.1

as the docu sais, yo ucan do string equality test with versions to see if they sync, with the versions returned by GetSpringVersion().

Thanks hoijui for correcting me
for now
GetSpringVersion() returns 85.0.1-112-g69ac7c4 for that build
previously
GetSpringVersion() returns 85

I have the same problem with Zero-K and Cursed with the game just crashing.
