Crash due to body material not being available on start

[Nutomic]

I'm just running into one error after another here. But this seems unrelated to my previous problems, and I didnt find any open issue for it either. This is with Gothic 2, and running on Manjaro Linux, plus latest master (408a0db0f06155470014d4b8d5bdf605e152210b).

I am getting this error after running ./REGoth ~/workspace/gothic2/ with an empty cache:

[INFO] [GameWorld] Insert Character PC_HERO at STARTPOINT

Interesting. Looks like the players body material has not been copied. That error is also thrown for handles which did not ever point to a valid object, so most likely Destroyed is not correct here, but that's an other issue! :smile:

Can you delete bin/cache/* and try again? Maybe the player model got corrupted because of a crash while caching resources...

I'll take a look at it when I get home!

PS: I would suggest changing the issue title to "Crash due to body material not being available on start" or something...

[Nutomic]

I already retried it with a cleared cache a few times, but the same error always happens. And I updated the title, but you can also do that yourself ;)

[ataulien]

There are some other executables, such as REGothCharacterMovementTester. Does that work?

[Nutomic]

I tried REGothCharacterMovementTester, it has the exact same error (with cleared cache). REGothWorldCacheTest, REGothWorldMeshViewer and REGothCharacterViewer seem to work (there are no errors).

EDIT: Looking into a little closer. Commit e08094825f6a10d5240897d0c62030ae36faf407 was a bugfix so it works from cache, but the two lines in VisualCharacters onInitialized are always executed even if the objects are not loaded.

I am running into the same problem. From my quick research at the point where setBodyTexture is called https://github.com/REGoth-project/REGoth-bs/blob/408a0db0f06155470014d4b8d5bdf605e152210b/src/components/VisualCharacter.cpp#L40-L46 The mSubRenderable has not been initialized yet https://github.com/REGoth-project/REGoth-bs/blob/408a0db0f06155470014d4b8d5bdf605e152210b/src/components/VisualSkeletalAnimation.cpp#L26-L38 I dont know enough about the component, but maybe it is enough to call buildObjectSubtree in the onInitialize function.

[ataulien]

When onInitialized is called, the Visual does not even know what it should be drawing if I'm not mistaken. The subtree is only built after a visual has been assigned. We should rather guard the calls which set the textures by whether a head and/or body mesh exists IMHO.
