Scorp Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 ok i tested again using my cd, instead of crack. didn't work but i can see that the program has had influence on the crashes, its very convient that the game closes down so fast, so u can get ingame again quick the only thing im missing is for the dialog to show up after crash, there can be many reasons for this.

eAi Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 Its possible. You'd probably get that effect if theres an error in my code... I've uploaded a very slightly modified version (same link as before) that should implement some more checking. Try that, see if it works then. We'll get it working perfectly eventually. I' wondering wheter the errors aren't caused by a memory leak in the server. I ran the linux version on a seperate system, and after running for 3 weeks, it used all available RAM and swap. Some people crashed every 30 secs. After restarting the server this was decreased to once an hour. I don't know if your program is able to detect problems that are cuased by strange packets from the server, but I think it's worth investigating.Thats not somthing we can really check very easily, but the this program will still catch those crashes, so we can see what caused them.eAi Link to comment
Scorp Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 ok eAi working now there's one issue tho, the Error Tool wants to update itself, even after i put updated files in there. Anyone else getting this? Link to comment
eAi Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 I can fix that from here I expect, i'll check whats causing it. eAi Link to comment
orappa Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 ok eAi working now there's one issue tho, the Error Tool wants to update itself, even after i put updated files in there. Anyone else getting this? Yep, I get that too. Wouldn't it be better for the tool to try to update itself before an error occurs (such as when VC starts)? Link to comment
Scorp Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 ok work perfect now, no bug at all, dont know what u did to fix it I like that system, simple and easy to use, hopefully it will give some gd info about the crashes for the future. Link to comment
eAi Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 I've just released a new version which you can download from http://www.opencoding.net/ereport/MTA-ERT-12.zip If you're using an old version (lots of people are), you'll be prompted to upgrade. eAi Link to comment

Si|ent Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Make sure the files are actually in the root of gta3 or VC, not in x:/gta3/gtaIII/ or x:/vice city/vice city the installer seems to be broken and places them in the wrong place. Link to comment

Scorp Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 ^^ Nice every time I get that failed error report there is a cheater/modder that caused the crash, and the tool can't read-out those crashes. could be something else though Link to comment
[TTH]Mr.X Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 well they stopped accepting reports (does this mean they see a patern in them?) Link to comment
orappa Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 well they stopped accepting reports (does this mean they see a patern in them?) eAi said that they received 17,000 reports if I recall correctly, and there are only a finite number of possible errors, so 17,000 is probably overkill. On the subject of crashes, what will happen in 0.4.5 when someone tries to get on a motorbike as a passenger when there's no driver? Will it: a) Remain unchanged? b) Automatically set the person as driver instead? c) Set them as passenger and not crash? d) Display a message and not allow them to get on the bike until there's a driver?
