I´ve found another problem. Any time I click on the station shown bellow I get the game reset/crash to OS. I am posting an error message as well.

Please help.

p.s. Sorry for an error.png file as it happens to be as a download option Patchman. Couldn´t find the way to post it as a screenshot.

We'll need savegame, configs, and crashlog too.

I've jsut enoucntered the a problem with r1184. I noticed a traffic jam near one of my bus stations(non drive thru). at clsoer inspection, the busses in the traffic jam had their speeds increasing exponentially. A highest I saw was about 400mph.

I've been having Whitehand's problem as well, with all sorts of RVs. Speeds go up to the triple digits, but the RVs actually start to stutter and only move a tick a second when they reach 80 mph.

The problem has nearly been identified... turn off aRVs which indirectly causes it... the actual cause is a little out of my league.

This has nothing to do with TTDPatch, until or unless Andrex himself says that it does. Re-report it in the TTDXC thread, and be sure to also upload your switches.xml.

In the meantime, I recommend TTDPC or notepad instead.

I know TTDPatch can generate ttdpatch.cfg with French comments, and there may be a way to get TTDPC to do that too.

Sorry, not that crashlog. The latest CRASH###.txt file in your TTD folder.

I can reproduce the crash, but my debugging settings seem to have disabled crashlog generation.

I get an error using r1192 - also happened w/1190. I delete ttdloadw.ovl and id doesn't help. It's probably something simple that I'm overlooking, what's going on?

Sounds to me like GameGFX.exe is broken. Try copying American.exe from the installer to your game folder, and removing GameGFX.exe.

BULLETIN! This just in!
* Dreaded RV Disease Claims Another Victim *

Another ambulance has just arrived at the emergency room. The victim tonight is r1202 who was declared dead on arrival, having come in contact with the rampant RV disease. It is hoped that researchers are working to come up with a cure. Stay tuned for further developments.

EDIT #1 - Additional information:
I just tried it with all grf's except the basic one #Disabled# and it happened there too.
EDIT #2 - This happens in all four buy lists

Happens in r1168 Oct.29
Does NOT happen in 2.5beta9 (r1170) Oct.29/30
Happens in r1173 Nov.2

Does NOT happen when vehicle is stopped in depot
Happens when vehicle is stopped or not stopped elsewhere.

Crash r1199 and r1200 and now r1202

1. Open the RV list window.
2. Click on any RV in the list.
3. Enjoy the crash.

The attached zip contains:
2 crash logs ... its repeatable.
1 save game.
1 grf configuration file.
1 patch configurayion file.

The documentation is from r1199. I just installed r1200. It happened there too.

[Failed to find string [...] olddoestrainstopatstationtile ...]

Same with r1202. What´s that "olddoestrainstopatstationtile" var? ttdovl, unaltered .exe etc, o/c.

procs/newstations.asm:117

Code: Select all

codefragment olddoestrainstopatstationtile
	cmp dl,0
	jb $+2+9
That code has not been touched since alpha 67, so my guess is that the fault lies with some other switch. Have recently either enabled or disabled any switches?

I think the problem can be traced to me in this case :(

procs/adjacentst.asm:101

Code: Select all

mov eax, [ophandler+5*8]
mov edi, [eax+40]
add edi, 0x4B+(0x1C*WINTTDX)
storefragment newclass5vehenterleavetilestchngecheckfunc1
This overwrites the very same bytes being searched for (_CS:0014CF27 in American DOS version: Class5VehEnterLeave) and the previous four, in the DOS version, not the windows version, so I never noticed the overlap.

I will try and fix this ASAP.

Sorry...

EDIT:
Very experimental commit fixing bug made, not tested under DOS, (works fine under windows).

I successfully collected version info from the American DOS version with r1203. Although not a guarantee, it is a good sign.

OK. The fix in r1202 seems to work but instead now I get a crash ...
