Mission Crashes When Picking Up Loot

Ricebug on 24/4/2017 at 04:08

The last 3 or 4 posts in (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=147734&page=8&p=2355734#post2355734) this thread has a player crashing the mission every time he picks up loot.

I have a distant memory of this happening before. Anyone remember the cause? He re-ran TafferPatcher, to no avail. I tested his savegames, and they work fine on my machine.

Is he using custom loot objects or textures?

I played the entire mission and didn't see any custom textures. It happens right at the start, where the player picks up two coin stacks.

I might be way off, but I thought monolog.txt in root directory tells you the issue if your crash. I think it works just using famsel but if it's empty try loading saved game within dromed. Is this person the only one having the issue?

Sounds like a script issue. He should reinstall Thief 2 from scratch.

Is this a FM specific issue?

in any case, his logs and crashdumps would be nice.

I had the same trouble when I went in game on this map I'm making and solved it by doing this....

Apparently, a re-install of Thief 2 solved his problems. Thanx, taffers.

:p I meant does the player with the freeze ups have any custom objects. I beta tested the mission he's having problems with and there were custom objects, but the coins I think were stock. :)

Anyway I'm glad he got it solved.
