| Summary | 0001090: Null vec3d in vec3d normalize | ||||
| Description | I saw that this error was reported before in 0000392 and showed resolved. Well it's not. Had it a couple of times today and finally in the last 2 missions I played. Seems to occur near respawn. Possibly a side effect of self destruct??? | ||||
| Additional Information | Sorry didn't know what to do if the error was in resolved status so I started a new one. | ||||

Forgot to add it usually shows up as a warning but the last time it crashed. |
|
|
Should be fixed in the next build. Fixered. |
|
|
Got it several times in a row playing cold sword today. |

It's back. Just got it testing Kara's standalone fixes. http://www.freespacefaq.com/Misc-Downloads/Builds/StandaloneFixes-1.7z It's coming up as: WARNING: "Null vec3d in vec3d normalize. Trace out of vecmat.cpp and find offending code." at VecMat.cpp:803 It let me continue but crashed later with another error. |

It's not back, it's just a generic warning message that can get generated from a thousand different places in the game. The message is useless except to someone who is debugging so it really doesn't help to keep bringing up this issue again and again. When we notice it during debugging then we'll fix it, but otherwise you should just ignore it. |

I'll reopen the issue... FUBAR was running a debugger and we were able to see the cause of the null vec warning this time. FUBAR's stack's relevant portion ...> fs2_open_3_6_11d.exe!debug_int3 fs2_open_3_6_11d.exe!Warning fs2_open_3_6_11d.exe!vm_vec_copy_normalize fs2_open_3_6_11d.exe!vm_vec_normalize fs2_open_3_6_11d.exe!multi_oo_calc_interp_splines fs2_open_3_6_11d.exe!multi_oo_unpack_data ... Where it was seen that in 'multi_oo_calc_interp_splines' vdir was very small (0,6.658070e-025,0). Given how vm_vec_copy_normalize works (all math is done in floats and not in doubles/long doubles) this will generate null vec issue ((6.658070e-025)^2 << 3.4E - 38). Either the safeguards used (IS_NULL_VECS) needs to be updated to check for either against null with squared vector components or by setting the check from '== 0.0' to '> -1e-16 && < 1e-16'. Or by using higher precision elements (long double) in the vm_vec_copy_normalize. I'm not sure which is the best approach. In addition to FUBAR also Chief reported that similar issues have been causing trouble in multi lately. |
|
|
See commit 5518 IS_VEC_NULL now checks the range -1e16 to 1e16 (checking == 0 is not really a good idea with floating point values) |
|
|
Haven't seen any in multi yet. Seem to be getting quite a few ships reporting null MOI errors now that weren't before. They do have small values in the MOI. |
|
|
Fix for the additional null MOIs caused by the code changes should now be in (r5531). |
|
|
Assumed fixed - reopen if necessary. |
