SpikeOnUr6 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I'm experiencing several CTDs: during medikit healing; after a shot; simply clicking to do action while another action is still ongoing; on other occasions which I can't really identify with an "action". None of the CTDs is replicable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dranak Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 @Silencer - A Scout has been able to take two Avalanches for a long time. Two Alenium Torpedoes does the job though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacticalDragon Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I have a temporal solution for Medipack CDT, Listen carefully! Only put Medipack in hands if your soldier is facing UP! or NORTH!, heal in that position and change Medipack without changing that posture.

I don't know how you calculate long time period but I remember needing 1 sidewinder for small scout and 1-2 avalanche for scout. And it was somewhere in v21 too.

Medikit CTD did seem sporadic as i have managed to heal just fine once or twice and had a CTD twice. Now I think about it both times it was successful was with a solider facing up. Last CTD i had was with him facing to the right. Had some sporadic CTD when switching from the barracks screen to the solider equipment screen, only happens if I go directly there. Other than that, pretty stable so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caaygun Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Can anyone else confirm the medikit heal CTD?We were hoping it wouldn't break saves, but looks like it has. Ah well...that's probably going to happen quite a bit over the coming eight weeks given how many fixes we'll be doing. Heres two versions of it with attached save: 1-Load: [ATTACH]3199[/ATTACH] first 2-Select Sgt. Mads Thomsen, he's the guy at the door of the Ufo at left. 3-Turn south to the soldier behind him. 4-Enter inventory 5-Drag Medipack to his gun wielding hand, pistol gets moved into belt 6-Heal (for 20, pack has more charge) A7-Immediate CTD B7-Medipack vanishes into thin air B8-Enter inventory to see for yourself the empty hand B9-Exit inventory, CTD happens while inventory panel cannot disappear Now, I couldn't manage to reproduce version B after creating a new save with the error causing soldier selected to make it easy for testing. After I did that, only version A (immediate CTD) was reproducable. Before I created a new save, every single time version B occured, but after creating a new save, testing by loading either saves only reproduced version A. Here's the new save I created with the error causing soldier selected, only A (immediate CTD) is reproducible: [ATTACH]3200[/ATTACH] GC 1.sav GC 3.sav GC 1.sav GC 3.sav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have run a XML structure validator and found that 22 files don't match with the strcuture or point to nonexistent files. Maybe a issue with soldier images?

Chris Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I'm not getting the medikit crash, actually. I just tested it in the Steam build and it seems to work fine for me. Can you guys try Validating Files on Steam, then see if the crash is still occurring? TacticalDragon - if you validate files and try it again, feel free to message me the list of "broken" files. It's probably worth me looking into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caaygun Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) I'm not getting the medikit crash, actually. I just tested it in the Steam build and it seems to work fine for me. Can you guys try Validating Files on Steam, then see if the crash is still occurring? Validated files, still crash with the saves I uploaded. Still only the (Immediate CTD after heal) version. Let me note: In the save file, error causing soldier faces southeast when healing. Facing him northeast also crashes after heal. Also of note: I always play windowed, WinXP, I run the local exe when playing but running from steam also crashes. Edit: Another one occured as with the situation B in my above post: Medipack vanishes, CTD on inventory exit. This time I tested an interesting situation: I moved the healer without entering inventory, though the medipack still disappeared from his hand in UI. Then I selected another soldier, entered inventory, CTD happened on inventory exit! This time without even the windows error log. This is one crazy bug. Edit: Here's a workaround, move the medipack to the hand, save, exit, load: no crash and you can heal your wounded soldier.

crusherven Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Does the amount you're healing matter? I wasn't able to reproduce a medic CTD no matter which direction my soldier was facing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairyscreech Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 It might do, with hindsight every time I have seen this crash it has been more than 1 point. However I am sure that was the case when it worked as well. Testing the patch now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalDragon Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Does the amount you're healing matter? I wasn't able to reproduce a medic CTD no matter which direction my soldier was facing. Is possible that your playing game structured V21, check the version. V22 exp B2 has some wrong paths of file finding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairyscreech Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) Just tried that fix, CTD healing south at 2 or 3 notches. Save file here: http://www.filedropper.com/1_23 Medipack is already in the guys hand. Edit - Typical, it works fine if you load the file but crashes if you do it without a save load. There is something in that. Edited April 5, 2014 by Hairyscreech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arghy Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I validated 4 times in a row off my clean install and ran into the same CTD at the end of my first mission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalDragon Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Try the nexts steps: 1- Go to steam and put right click on Xenonauts and properties 2- Search "Validate Files option" 3- Put the patch that I upload 4- Try to load a game when your on Geospace.

Amiga4ever Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I started again NEW GAME and again after missed shoot with Sniper Rifle game crashed:/ First time I missed on the field second time inside the UFO.

Hairyscreech Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Amiga4ever - I seem to be getting an inconstant CTD when firing into the UFO, generally at the moment something smashes, the door has done it two or three times as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalDragon Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 People please, I just found the error for Medikit, be patient I'll catch the other errors. Promise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feckless Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Hey TacticalDragon. I could still reproduce the CTD medkit bug. I found out that it potentially links in with the CTD bug on completion of mission and that the CTD on mission completion may not actually be separate from the medkit bug. Here's a link to the save file for the V22 build 2. To recreate the crash, simply load the game and heal Emma stone. It won't crash, but after killing the last two sebillians (one inside UFO, one just outside and to the left of UFO entrance) it will go to mission complete screen, but will crash when proceeding to global map. Now here's the interesting part. Reload the save, but don't heal Emma Stone. Proceed to kill the aliens then proceed to the global map. You can. It doesn't crash. This is why I think it's linked to any healing done in mission. This is with your hotfix on page 4 after both verifying data integrity and then patching over the soldierimages folder. I have only tried healing Emma Stone with her to the north, and the healer to the south (healing upwards to the north). Feel free to experiment with other angles to see if a crash can be avoided/replicated. Hope this helps, and thanks so much for all your awesome bugfixing! We really do appreciate it ya know. https://mega.co.nz/#!XsYSHDLa!nXNGM5GR5T2yS8escBlzLMBB7SVubqu1d3rPhsg-sbM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalDragon Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Feckless many thanks for your report, I'm working right now in the weapon and bullets interaction that cause other crashes. I'll recreate the "Emma's Case" and look for answer. Keep watching until I try to upload other fix patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalDragon Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Feckless, I try to recreate "Emma's case" without success. No crash in my fixed version. Try reinstall the game and apply fixes. I had test lot more minor erros of the version but folders with erros is too huge to replace it... Can you upload a video with the crash?

Feckless Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 I have already overwritten the save file but i'll download it again and try. I have never done video recording before, but i'm...'acquiring' fraps now to give it a go. Give me half an hour and I should hopefully have it uploaded and ready for you to see.

Feckless Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Ok, strange. I couldn't replicate the CTD. When I originally got the crash, I loaded the save, tried healing Emma again, killed the aliens, then CTD on mission complete. After that, I reloaded the save again, DIDN'T heal Emma, killed the aliens, and no CTD on mission complete. But now, after inserting the save file back in, then reloading, and trying to replicate the original CTD, it doesn't work! I am a bit confused, as loading the save earlier still resulted in CTD, but now I can reload the save and it's fine? Very strange. I have still had trouble with crashes since my first report here. All to do with the medkits. Either CTD on heal, or CTD on mission complete, after heal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
