ok, just to clarify this: MacOS X FS2open 3.6.10-trunk crashes instantly at the start of mission2 of STR str02.fs2 and also during other missions of STR I tested a lot of different things and the cause of the crash are the fsport-mediavps. I have no clue yet what in the fsport-mediavps causes the crash but it seem it's MacOS X related cos I heard no problems with the win-builds. |
|
|
Could you post your fs2_open.log when this crash occurs too please? I'll take a look at this, but want to make sure my fsport setup is done in the same way. Oh and a Mac OS X crash log from an Intel platform would be of assistance too. |

ok, fs2_open.log from PPC u/l just one thing - the crash does not occur if I remove the "models" folder from the (expanded) fsportmediavps folder ... I added more and more models back. The fewer *pof files there are in the model folder the longer the mission lasts before it crashed or it does not crash till the end. I'm not sure it is a specific model the causes the crash or it's the number of *.pof files that cause the crash. |
|
|
well, tested on my MBP 10.5.6 Nvidia9400M, C2D, does not crash, so must be PPC related |
|
|
that crash seems not to be STR or fsport_mediavps related; I had time to play around and the PPC crashes also playing Warzone, where the same crash occured later in the game... |
|
|
What kind of hardware is your Tiger box? I'm guessing that's the PPC one, but what specifically? |
|
|
Power Mac G5 2Ghz dualcore PPC970, PowerMac11,2, Geforce7800GT 256 MB, Ram 2.5 GB, MacOS 10.4.11 |
|
|
Does it actually crash to desktop? Or does it freeze for a long time? If it freezes, it might be generating IBX files for the models. |
|
|
Yes. It crashes to desktop. It is not while generating IBX files. That takes not so much more time on the G5 than on the MBP. |
|
|
I'm closing this as the issue is over two years old and has not been reported since. |
