Comp causing crashes

08-13-2006, 06:24 PM

would it be possible for a certain computer to have a map crash more often then others

for ex.

the map i am working on, seems to crahs on me every third time i test it or so, and i only test it for a few minutes

where as my terrainer, has tested it a lot on his comp, and it has never crashed once** NVM he just got one

i dont understand y this would be

** so scratch my first question

another question

could attaching things to units cause crashes

for ex.

local unit u = GetTriggerUnit()
lolal string s = GetAttachableTable(u)

call SetTableObject(s,"fx",AddSpecialEffectTarget("none.mdl",u,"chest"))

could storing those and retreiving them cuase crashes

because this map seems to crash very often, and i have never had another map or spell like this crash on me in single player before(and i have made an ass load of spells), and that is the only thing I can think of that I am doing differently

ive even gone though and un nulled all my triggers, and use th 15 sec delay to destryo

the crashes only started once i started putting abilities into the map, and my upgrade creeps trigger, so it is one of the two...

which is:

i have reason to believe this could be the cuplrite, but ive no idea y

vile	Whee, more crashes with GC. Welcome to the club. I'm quitting the club tomorrow, no more GC for me.

emjlr3

i dont think it is GC

granted the 8 abilities I have made r 8 of the most complicated and in depth I have done, that should not be an issue

as i have said, i have made probably 200+ abilities, easy, and none have ever had a crash problem in single player

the crashes started after my first two abilities, and the upgrade creeps system I made, all of which i imported at the same time

the last two games I played, 10 minutes each, w/o the upgrade system on, did not crash

which leads me to believe that very well may be the problem

but liek I said i have no idea why, if a few ppl may read over that trigger, and maybe suggest possible reasons, or might find out why, It could help me isolate the problem

but if its not this, then well....GC is bugging the hell outa my map then, which it has never done before, so I see not reason for it to now

little help anyone...?

for whoever reads it, you can probably ingnore the function research_Actions , that only runs when an upgrade finishes, and when I test I never upgrade anything

Vexorian	It could be related to quantity of lan. We also know that different windows versions have different effects some times. If you are testing it in singleplayer, it could simply be that your cache file is full. You may also have a bad RAM chip... ..that happens and causes random crashes , seriously

08-14-2006, 11:52 AM	#5
emjlr3	hmmm i either dont understand what u r saying, or ur misunderstanding my issue i thought u could only get full cache if u make thhe 256 or whatever diff caches, I use only one

08-14-2006, 01:43 PM	#6
Vexorian	Well in theory if one of the 256 gamecaches has a lot of content it is another limit. You can simply try to brute force the exact reason of the crash, you are, afterall destroying the trigger. Try replacing DestroyTrigger with DisableTrigger in the DesTrigger function
