Multiplayer CTD Server/Object issue?

SEE · #1 05-09-2012, 02:32 PM

I can manage but just around 5-10 minutes on ATAG No1 then freeze and LE crash with multiple 'object Null' errors generated in the Log file.

Switch to Kampverband13 No 1 server and I am able to to test the alpha patch without problems. This server uses the Channel map and lots of AI but few players and weather is clear - no clouds.

It would interesting to see if others with MP CTD problems find this server less problematic.

SEE, maybe this:

I'll add, I think what he means by defensive programming is that the exceptions should be 'gracefully handled'. The program shouldn't just CTD. It should have an error handler and back out/unwind to the point before the error occurred and continue onward.

I have tried everything believe me except SSAO so will give that a try. But I don't have to do anything regards settings for Kampverband13 No 1 server (not No 2, I CTD on that one).

I just did it SEE, went in ATAG and had a massive brawl with 5 hurris/spits... Fligth was about 30 mins... No CTD.

That´s really weird, SSAO is just a client side graphic effect, it is present in Single player too but the CTD is a multiplayer issue.

But seeing the bugs unveiled by the new graphic engine maybe the SSAO code is doing something that it should not (while is off).

Doesn't SSAO kill fps though?

Buchon · #9 05-09-2012, 04:07 PM

Yep, but SSAO its a very intensive GPU effect usually so I'm not sure if the performance drop is linked to the problem.

Amazingly it seems to be working, no CTD yet.
