crashing question

Sat Jun 12, 2004 7:02 pm by wrathofachilles

I'm having a reall irritating time trying to find a crash in a minimod I'm working on, I've added four ships and several weapons, things I've done fine before. Now I can buy the ship, equip the ship and take off but when it tries to load between planet and space it crashes. If I'm on multiplayer it kills the server, if I'm on sp it kills the game. I've been checking for about 2 days for the source and am no closer to finding it, any help is seriously appreciated.

There is a whole thread dedicated to crashing issues that i wrote in the tutorials forum. of course, there are links to this thread from that thread that says its got everything.

However, you have probabily made a mistake somewhere. Did you give them to NPC's to fly?

originally I did, then I removed that because I thought this was the problem and I still get the crash, I read through your crash forum and found nothing that explained my crash

you may test your mod using standard fl ship and let the npc use your ship instead, this will resolve your crash if it is model specific... Launch to space and take a good look of your ship that the npc uses... if they don't move the problem might be your engine... if you crashed again... there might be missing header or mispelled name... in the case of npc loadouts make sure it is equip = not addon =.

Have you done a complete reinstall of Freelancer - as some crashes happen for simply no known reason, but complete reinstall and deletion of all files (including saves) sometimes fixes the unexplainable.

I sorted it thanks, It was something to do with the levels i set to buy ships at in the market_ships.ini

man I tried everything before I found that...
