Bug ID: 1139
Summary: Client experiences random crash (violent crash)
Product: Odamex
Version: 0.7.x
Hardware: x86 (Windows, Linux, etc)
OS: Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P1
Component: Client
Assignee: odamex-bug-reporter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Reporter: watermelonst@xxxxxxxxxxx
This crash appears to be random, and while uncommon it has been experienced by
almost every player (if not every player) in the WDL who plays actively. Today
in priv, multiple people crashed at different intervals. It appears to be
completely random, so we can't pinpoint anything that might have triggered it.
The crash itself is a REALLY violent crash. It locks up windows almost
completely and makes it impossible to do anything. If you press ctrl + alt +
del, it takes usually 60+ seconds for the command to even register. The mouse
chokes really hard and performs an entire move every 10-15 seconds (of all the
movement).
The only way to recover is to be lucky enough for getting to the ctrl/alt/del
menu and select "log off", or just power down the computer.
Getting it to appear is not easy, its possible to play 8-10 rounds of priv (~2
hours worth) and it wont happen, but when it does happen it pretty much takes
the whole computer with it. If this occurs during a league match it will
completely destroy the team who is playing.
If theres any way I can add some code to capture it or be prepared for such an
event I will. The main problem though is it almost always takes the whole
operating system with it... so debugging this looks like it'd be hard anyways.
