Crashing Related to Fireballs?

Open gusphan opened this issue 5 years ago • 6 comments

I have the VR mod plus all-in-on + ultimate HD texture mod. I was able to play the first few chapters without issue (other than the loading new map problem). However, I think it's the 3rd or 4th chapter, but now I'm getting frequent crashes. I believe it happens when an imp tries to throw a fireball. Odd thing is, it's not all the time. But now, I'm lucky if I can play more than 10 minutes without the issue happening. Any thoughts?

This seems to somehow be related to some of the hi-def texture packs, but unfortunately I haven't had the time yet to identify what the issue is. It's on the list...

I crash sometimes when imps throw fireballs but im not using a texture pack.

The same issue.. but for me the crash is not random but happens every time, so I'm stuck :( Enpro Plant - there's an Imp near a big round room with an elevator at the back. Game crashes 100% when it throws a fireball. The same happens if I try to avoid him with noclip and use the elevator... or if I just try to run past him with ai_think 0.. there's something bad with this particular room.

PS: I solved my problem by completely reinstalling the game, deleting savegame folder, reinstalling just the game and BFG VR w/o any additional crap. And re-playing everything from the beginning... yeah, not the best solution, but hey - the game is fun! I still got occasional crashes often when Imp throw fireballs. But at least now they are not repeated all the time and I was able to finish that damn level finally.

TL;DR: Don't use any "HD texture" crap with this mod, kids! It's bad for your health!

Which version did you use ? Did you try my release ? It may fix these bugs

@NPi2Loup yes of course I used your version, it doesn't fix my crashes.

I identified the possible culprit here: #371
