segmentation fault

Post by lost_soul »

I keep getting a segmentation fault error. The game randomly crashes and the command line reads "Segmentation fault"

not sure how to get more debug info.

You could show us the logfile. You can find it in ~/.tmw/tmw.log

  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.

I was going to post the log file, but i think the problem has ceased, I think it may have been something to do with the major over-population of monsters, but the server has since been restarted, and I no longer seem to be having the issue.

Actually if a high enough amount of entities on screen segfaults the client, that is quite alarming.

We should look into this.
This message used to be meaningful.

I doubt that it was just the number of objects on-screen that caused the segmentation fault. Not only the monsters but all scripts were executed twice like warps triggers or npcs. Something of this might have caused the problem.

But like every bug: When you can't reproduce it we can't fix it.

I keep getting it too, today. Here's the end of my log file:

Segmentation Fault

Post by omegamormegil »

I'm getting Seg Faults rapidly (3 seconds) after logging in. The end of my log says:

[20:56:13.64] Warning: no action "1" defined!
[20:56:13.64] ResourceManager::release(graphics/sprites/hairstyle1.xml[1])
[20:56:13.64] ResourceManager::release(graphics/sprites/hairstyle1.png[40x40])

[20:56:13.64] Warning: no action "1" defined!
[20:56:13.64] Warning: no action "2" defined!


I don't know if it's my character, or something else. If you want to test it, you could try logging in as me.

You are still using 0.0.23. Update to 0.0.24 or take one of the hairstyle*.xml files from the updates, rename it to hairstyle0.xml and put it into The Mana World/data/graphics/sprites.
