Crash when joiing TE/Campaign MAP in MP when using IVC
-
Hello,
I have a issue that when I’m playing in multiplayer, everything is fine if I don’t use the IVC. I can join a map and fly.
But if I join a MP session with the IVC connected, the game crashes.
Anyone have the same issue ?
How can I troubleshoot/fix ? -
No repro case, no logs, no crash dump,…
No help…

@MaxWaldorf
sorry for not providing a log straight away
here it is lol
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZrXzNjY9ufiq3WmFyob0O6SK9hGsTW6O/view?usp=share_linkI made a video to show what’s happening:
-
@Snax cannot access the linked files
-
@Tumbler31 I edited the access, try now if it’s good
-
@Snax thanks, could you supply the full dump file (see https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/20866) and what is your sound setup/config like?

This post is deleted! -
@Tumbler31 ok I’ll do that in a bit !

@Tumbler31 hi again, here’s the crashdump file
https://drive.google.com/file/d/15zU9sI5Qfx7vr4KH7IubCtvj3Zb0bBfD/view?usp=share_link
my sound config is a ONIKUMA K8 and a 2.1 stereo both with jacks (no USB).

@Snax – very helpful, thank you.
If I understand this correctly you are using a voice server on your local system. There are no other players connected to that. You are the only player connecting to the network game, using the local voice server at the time of the crash. Is this the correct scenario??
Also, the one thing I see in the dmp that looks “odd” is that the log book name for the local player appears to be blank. What are the settings you have for pilot name and callsign in the logbook entry that is in use as you connect to the network game in this case??

@Boxer Hi, yes indeed I was alone for the test (I didn’t test with my wingmates, thinking the same would happen).
All was done on the same machine.In my logbook, It’s not a new one, it’s an old one I have for years, used from 4.33 till 4.37. In there both Callsign and Pilot are “Snax”. I have selected my callsign and the settings associated with it (like volume and) were loaded.
Edit: now that you’ve said my pilot name was blank, I had an error with Weapon Delivery Planner saying “couldn’t load pilot” or something like that.
I went to reinstall BMS, now WDP loads successfully (but the issue with the IVC remains the same :/).I also see in regedit.exe that the registry for BMS is “bigger”, the line “initData” was missing before.

@Snax ok great. We’re eliminating possibilities as we go then
Would you mind creating a new log book entry and trying the process again – doesn’t matter what the name used for this is – just something newly created.
If that crashes the same way, the next thing I’d ask you to try is to turn on logging for IVC connections. This you can do with the -mono command line flag on the exe before you start it and the following in your cfg file:
set g_fXMonoprintFilter 0x200000
There should be a file in the User\logs directory, something like today’s data, time and xlog.txt on the end for the filename.
Output from that may help narrow down the sequence of when things go off the rails.

I went to reinstall BMS, now WDP loads successfully (but the issue with the IVC remains the same :/).That’s not definitive but it is a little suspicious. With luck the “try a new logbook” entry experiment might rule out issues there.

@Snax – one other thing to try and eliminate issues.
I see you are opening a save game called RKR110-TR
Is that something that has been edited with external tools?? You mention WDP so…that seems possible maybe??
If the other things above didn’t run for you and it’s still crashing, I would also ask if you experience this crash with all save games or mission starting points?? Perhaps try a fresh new campaign or one of the stock TE files that can be used with multiple players…just some save file that hasn’t been edited since it was installed from the original game content.
I do also see some strange “game” related data in the dmp but I can’t quite tell if that’s just the dmp being incomplete or if there’s a something whacky lurking there. Again trying a new or at least unmodified starting file for the MP game you try to join may help eliminate this as an avenue of inquiry.

@Boxer The mission was made with the TE Builder but wasn’t edited with an external tools like Mission Commander. I’ve used WDP to read the .tac file and generate the kneeboard files then.
And ok, I’ll make a new logbook to try tomorrow.
Thanks for your kind help y’all !
