| Summary | 0002774: CTD - possibly during pilot conversion process | ||||
| Description | Antipodes tries to convert all the pilots it can find (normal vs inferno, I need to check) into the new format. If the conversion process exceeds the allowed number of pilots, FSO crashes with: ERROR: "Out of memory." at windows_stub/stubs.cpp:574 Once the game has crashed once, it'll work normally, however you might not be able to see pilots that you could previously see. e.g. crash on start rerun successfully try to create & new pilot and can't because you're @ max delete a pilot & create a new pilot play, then exit restart - conversion process causes a crash when it tries to convert an ant8 pilot that was deleted but still exists as an inferno pilot (maybe - need to double check) can't see the last created pilot | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Have X antipodes8 pilots where X is some value below the max Have Y inferno (??) pilots where X + Y exceeds the max Run FSO crash (needs to be confirmed) | ||||
| Additional Information | I really need to add better info, but I'm in a rush and I don't want to forgot about this... | ||||

I'm having problems reproducing this now :| I don't think it's related to the pilot conversion process + number of active pilots, FSO happily converts all my test pilots it can without error, even when I start with 19 ant8 pilots and end up with 23 after the conversion (20 is the normal max). There could be a conversion issue with one of the pilots which caused the original issue, but I think I deleted the relevant INF pilot :( Anyway, for reference, I've tried the following: start with 19 ant8, 4 unconverted INF, start, delete from FSO one newly converted pilot (or an old converted pilot, or dummy ant8 pilot), create new pilot, enter game, play mission, exit, re-enter FSO without crash. delete more newly converted ant8 pilots, create new ones, play mission, exit, re-enter FSO without crash. I need to try something else to reproduce... the sequence in the description is pretty much as I remember it... I guess the crash could simply have been trying to convert a dud pilot, and maybe that was the pilot that was deleted to make room for the new Ant8 pilot? |

checked all my remaining pilots, none of them caused a crash during conversion, however I do recall deleting a couple of .csg files that were affected by 2053 - I'm going to assume that this crash was caused by that problem. |
