A Bug in Windows Version Server?


(xG -Abit-) #1

cmd 3326: cs 24 “\allied_desc\Secondary Objective:**Stop the Axis from constructing a Command Post.\s1\0\s0\0\axis_desc\Secondary Objective:**Build your Command Post for improved charge times.”

ClientDisconnect: 17


ERROR: G_SpawnString() called while not spawning

Hunk_Clear: reset the hunk ok

Not sure what that means, just wondering if anyone else has seen this?
Please do tell. :eek3:

I saw it once and mentioned it in IRC, I think they said its fixed for full release already :slight_smile:

On my windows (2k pro) dedicated box its crashing at least once an hour, nothing dodgy in the logs except a LOT of “WARNING: msg overflowed for xxxxx” (like half the log is taken up with this from a couple of players). Windows message is “ettest.exe was generating errors and has been shut down”. I got the same error message when i was running two wolf servers and had a typo in hunkmegs setting so they were taking up 150% of ram :o :o (since changing to proper setting the rtcw servers ran very well).

Yup, we’ve fixed that.

Hi djbob,

This server crashing business is terrible for those of us who run Win2K servers.

My server sometimes crashes every 5-20 minutes, regardless of what I adjust, tweak or change.

  1. Can you suggest Anything I can try to minimize all the crashing??

  2. If you have corrected this problem, can you please, please, please release a patch for the ET Test to fix this while we wait for the final version.

Many thanks for the game, all my regulars simply LOVE it (which makes the frequent crashing worse).
