yeah, that always happens when you try and play that game in the BG from a crash save, its very old and someone should update it. Anyone willing to try?

Addressing quite a few issues:

Thanks, I always love to help out to those who cannot compile themselves! I'm always glad when my work is appreciated.

Rubidium wrote:Yup, that happens because it isn't compiled with MSVC and as such doesn't have the whole crash handler. Not to mention that it will only work with MSVC, and not with GCC, because the crash log/dump doesn't contain that much information; it's the 'pdb' file together with the crash 'dmp' that provide the useful information. GCC can't make such a 'pdb' file and is thus totally useless.

I've yet to get MSVC working with compiling OpenTTD, I've followed the guide, but I get some errors.

Well, that's probably because of a NewGRF. Can you try again without loading the NewGRF?

Not possible, like I said, that ALWAYS happens when attempting to load the opntitle map from a crash save. its using no grfs so I dont know why it does that, it works in older versions of openttd

So at some point it at least tried to load some newgrfs. If that was when the game started it shouldn't be the problem. Otherwise it's another case of changing newgrfs during the game. I'll have a look at it.

Well, I haven't changed any newgrf's. And please note that it changed in the menu when I clicked (I believe) economy in the advanced settings (it's possible to verify this @ included auto-screenshot). I guess the fact that it crashed in the menu decreases the chance that the game crashed because of cargodist, but since it's a cargodist build it does belong here.

Is there any win 32 compile with this using the latest openttd and latest cargodist?

petert · Post by **petert** » 24 Nov 2009 19:56

Sorry, fonso hasn't updated the carogdist diff, so I can't make a binary. *hint hint*

huldu · Post by **huldu** » 24 Nov 2009 21:37

I see what you mean, i just installed VC++ and tortoise, in an attempt to try compile it myself. Apparently the patch does not work with the latest source of openttd? When i try apply the patch only white boxes appear. When trying to apply other patches file listings etc appear. Such a shame, was really looking forward to trying this out.

petert · Post by **petert** » 24 Nov 2009 21:40

Well, I'm using MSYS so I get "failed hunks", but I'm glad you're compiling yourself. You can also just use my most recent binary.

Tortoise doesn't eat patches from anything else than subversion, in particular, not from mercurial nor from git.

Here is the latest patch of cargodist for SVN:

fonso · Post by **fonso** » 25 Nov 2009 10:43

tsjook:

Please give me a step-by-step description how you got that error in the menu. When I load and unpause the crash save you posted the game immediately crashes because of train 9 having an invalid length. I can't get back to the menu from there.

I don't quite know how you arrived at that "invalid length" state either. It's strange that you have somehow loaded two trainsets (2cc and dutch) while the "multiple newgrf engine sets" setting is off. That shouldn't be possible. Do you remember how you did that? It's also strange that those two industry grfs are disabled for no apparent reason.

Is that both the same for you if you load the crash.sav yourself? You can check if you open the newgrf/advanced settings before unpausing.

petert · Post by **petert** » 25 Nov 2009 17:04

Hello all,
Here is a updated binary against the latest trunk as of now (r18286). Also, here is an svn diff against r18286. Enjoy.

fonso · Post by **fonso** » 25 Nov 2009 17:24

tsjook, I'd really like to know how you got that crash.sav . Obviously it's the title game. However, it's loaded with about 20 grfs, among which are 2 train grfs. At the same time the "multiple engine sets" option is off. Furthermore one of the trains is also listed as a tram in the savegame and as a truck in the vehicle list (train 9/ rv 20).

Gremnon · Post by **Gremnon** » 25 Nov 2009 17:34

That, to me, smacks of A: Conflicting sets, more so because of the multiple sets switch off and B: a modified title screen.

Beday · Post by **Beday** » 25 Nov 2009 18:34

Once again I did encounter a problem. Once again with AI's. I think it has to do with the AI, because the game with the AI killed does work fine.

Hopefully it is of use for the development.

good luck!

I'm not completely sure, but I think the pax and stations are affected by the underlying tools of CargoDist.

If you want people to help you, you should post a savegame. Without. there's nothing people can say...

Did you install CargoDEst or CargoDIst? They are not the same thing.
