Startup crash (mod: EnemyWithinPart2) [Solved]

[Nightruler]

EDIT: Man what a pain in the butt. 1 little shap file, with the wrong Triangles. Can the Linux dev's maybe toss into the next patch a bit of a better error for when something like this happens? None of the error messages helped at all other then 'something blew up'. None of the files being loaded showed up in the strace I ran, or even in the blackbox.txt. This could make debuging MODs very difficult, not to mention this problem doesn't even show up in Windows. o-well, done with my rant.. back to kicking virus ass.

I've been working with the developer of this mod in the mod fourms but we are not really sure what the problem is, and this isn't happening in Windows... so maybe another Linux guy could give this alook? Once you click to load the mod, the game crashes, and then anytime you try to reload the mod, the game will crash right back to the prompt after a black screen.

Could you post a link to the mod please? (Or email a link to john@introversion.co.uk if you don't want to post it publicly just yet). I have a hunch that what's going on here is that Darwinia is expecting the names of the shape files to be lower case and that they're coming out upper- or mixed-case when installing the mod in the filesystem.

Chapter 2 is the one he's having issues with. I'm baffled. He got an error message about Triffids in sandbox, but I don't have a sandbox level; only one level had triffids in the map file, and sending him a new map file for that level (decompiler) didn't fix his crash problem.

In its current state it plays from start to finish here on my Win box. I'm going to play it through again now to make sure I didn't miss something.

Edit: I had him try this stripped down version of the mod with only the first few levels, and it still crashes:

He says he's getting this, and there's no sounds in this minimod:

Darwinia has unexpectedly encountered a fatal error.

blackbox.txt in the current working directory

./darwinia: line 39: 17732 Segmentation fault      $here/lib/darwinia.bin.x86

Edit2: All my shape files were named with lowercase letters when I .rar'ed them, if that helps any.

[Nightruler]

Just a side note on upper/lowercase. In the docs I found it says to put mods in your Mods directory, under linux this is in .darwinia/mods not .darwinia/Mods and wasn't created for me.

As for this mod... I found something really... strange.

First, when I click on the mod and I'm crashed out, after I try to load again my profile is set to 'none'.

So seeing this, I started a new game, created a new profile and exited.

Then I went in and changed preferences.txt to change the mod = line to the mod I wanted.

When I went back in, it did load, but it was kinda funny. The picture of the Dr. was a big pink Darwinia guy, name of the level was Garden, and the pink dude is giving me the same intro as the Dr in the first level of the game about 'who the hell are you, etc...' Funny shit. lol

[trickfred]

The *purple* dude is from the mod - so your game is retaining part of the stuff loaded from the mod when you play the garden level.

Oh.. ok.. fine... *purple* dude..... looked pink to me... lol

EDIT: I looked around the mod, doing some greps for any bmp and shp files, everything is in lowercase and all the files are lowercase also.

[trickfred]

False alarm.

It was a .shp file with 'Triangles: 4' when there were only really 2 triangles listed. That caused the game toi not even load, btu we narrowed it down. I didn't even think to look at those since it ran fine on Windows, and I assume Macs since this was the first I had heard of it causing problems.



Sorry 'bout the mess.
