Just like the title says. I figured having a single place to put v1.1 bugs might be handy for PR and Ghost. If not, please delete. thxs

feld

ps. PR, Ghost...it seems unfair that you guys are giving me this great mod for Christmas...and all I got you was a lousy bug tracking thread! Apologies

Ok then my exeption that I got while playing skrimish with CSA, 2 rebels and Empire. I was Rebels.

Great work on the 1.1 release!

Are you starting a new bug report thread?

If so, move this to it.
I've got one in the core world campaign,
did nothing special, just building and researching...

Here's the code, without the stack dump:

Really f**king slow on GC. Really, really slow. I seriously hope that you guys forgot to remove an anonymous line of code somewhere and that GC isn't slow as hell due to all of the cool stuff in it.

Right now I am because I can't play your awesome GC.

Same for me also, running a 2.4GHZ Quad core with 3 gig of DDR3 and a Nvidia GT 8800 and it is so slow as to being unable to play :(

[TheEmpire]

You want to have atleast 3.0GHZ. A quad core does not make a difference for FOC.

[Kitkun]

3.0Ghz Core 2 Duo isn't really making GFFA much better for me. Shadow Hand is real smooth, though.

Anyways, the loading screen description for Caprioril has a typo. Amazing find, I know.

[coinich]

Good news: loaded GFFA in 7 minutes or less. Bad: Access violation error. :( Tried to resize my screen.

Good lord, the game takes up an incredible amount of memory; ~1,000,000 K, according to the task manager. That, and the memory access violation strikes again. :(

The same thing happened to me again! I think the AI is trying to do something it cannot do. Always in skrimish.

The same thing happened to me again! I think the AI is trying to do something it cannot do. Always in skrimish.

I'm wondering if its the CSA again. My skirmish went perfect; there was no problems, but no CSA. When I skirmished as the CSA, there were no problems either.

[hetter71]

Well, the good news first. The GFFA loads for me and plays. It's slow, but it's workable (lets me catch up on my reading ). The bad news...I could only play for about an hour...was in the middle of week 3 and tried to save. It said I couldn't save due to space limitations and I should check my free space. I've got 64GB free on my HD, so I doubt it's really a free space issue.

If you're curious, my specs are 3.06 GHz P4, 2.5GB RAM, onboard video with 128MB RAM dedicated to it.

Edit: Somebody correct me here if I'm wrong, but those with Core duo & quad processors: If I am remembering correctly, the GHz that is shown for your processor is NOT how fast the processor is, but how fast they are COMBINED. Meaning a core 2 duo rated at 3 GHz is 2 processors running at 1.5 GHz. As FoC is not designed to take advantage of 2 processors, it only uses 1, and you're trying to run it on 1.5 instead of 3 GHz....that's probably causing a LOT of the problems being experienced. Again, I could be wrong, and if I am somebody let me know

Edited by hetter71, 24 December 2008 - 07:00 PM.

[coinich]

Got the save error as well. :(

[Fox83]

Is it my faul or something wrong with saving? Is 40 GB too litle for save? And does anybody know how how much space is required for save?

Repost of previus.

I can start all campains, but sooner or later the game is ended without any comment from system.

PC> Athlon 64 X2 (2x2.1 GHz), 1 GB ram, Ati Radeon 2400 HD 256 MB

And semetimes Skirmish works OK sometimes fall.

Edited by Fox83, 24 December 2008 - 07:41 PM.

[coinich]

I wonder if the system is running out of ram, or something of the sort. The savegame file shouldn't be gigabytes large; the mod itself (zipped) was under 1 gig.

[Fox83]

I know but it get me message Save fail not enough space on harddrive.

[A1Dasdfsdkli4r2]

I'm getting syntax errors from an xml called GUIDalogs a half of a week in. I have no problems saving, but it's pointless with such little play time... I've only tried the inner core because I tried load GFFA and I thought it had crashed loading it. Also right as it crashes right the Empire attacks Gromas 16 ore something like that. Also I was playing rebels. My system specs are Intel core 2 duo with 2.50 GHz and NVDIA GeForce 8700 and 4 gigs ram.

[Darth Stalin]

First:
lot of LAG.
Loading the mod itself lasts some 5-7 minutes; loading full GFFA campaign takes another ~5 mins.

Save - haven't tried it; before i tried, I had "exception" error:

Exception in thread AEC - LoadThread
Exception code EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

Maybe this can help you, guys...

A couple of things I wanted to point out:

Everybody should defrag after installing the mod; I cut my loading times by more than half after doing that because the HUGE XML files were spread like snot across the whole drive.

As for bugs, I have now seen multiple crashes involving a combination of two factors, pirate ground troops and autoresolve. Whether the player is involved or not, it seems certain pirate units (not sure which or how) can crash an autoresolve.

Oh, and is it my imagination or did someone make the sovereign superlaser fire more often?

I got save game bug as well. It seems laggy, but smooth, not as jerky. Comp is fine, over the recommended specs. Just slower. Skirmish was fine so far. Will check out XML myself and see if anythings going on.
