Title: War2 crashing lately
Post by: Talrand on May 18, 2021, 01:41:40 AM
Lately my war2 has been crashing and giving a message error (attached to the post). Anyone knows why? I'm not running the latest war2 version, could there be a conflict or something?
I wouldn't mind downloading the new version but I hate the constant beeping.

Why not get the latest version?

You can also disable the sound by choosing so when installing the game.

When?

The problem have been firstly reported by Szwagier, thanks a lot to him.
That was related to the server problems, for my version it can appear at the first time about May 14, i fixed it at May 17 23:33 (server time).
If you login after that time, that should not happen with you, but can happen before.

Please, report about these problems, that is VERY important, as the problem is floating and i have no idea what was wrong, i can't reproduce it myself, i even didn't know about that till Szwagier told me about that...

That was not related to version of client, doesn't matter which version of war2combat (though not sure if some of plugins/dlls can conflict some way), the problem happened on the server part only.

It has also happened to me a few times. Don't remember when the first time was but second was when I was in game lobby. No error messages or anything just plain crash to desktop.

This just happened to me 5 mins ago.  I created a new name, joined a game, game started and it crashed.  Reopened war2 and was good.  Knitter said this was happening to him when trying to smurf yesterday.

Thanks a lot for your feedbacks!

Looks like we just catched the big error in the code, mistral rewrote it,
so that should work correctly since this time!
Just leave the server and join it again.

Let me know if crashes still appear.

Need to find the feature causes crash, with your help...

P.S:
everybody who catched crash use win10, right?

The new built in NEWB filter is working great it seems

SG gets the message every time he logs in "newb alert. newb alert"

SG to self:   ....damn, it works.

War2 just randomly crashed on me just now.  No error message though.  I was in a game lobby and it closed.

Ah!
I've been sure it was related to ss feature...
Could you please send me your crash dump? Files from "Errors" subdirectory in war2...

After every game (with Equinox hosting) yesterday, I couldn't rejoin his next game (lat) so I'd reconnect to the server and when it entered battle.net gui the program would close. 

Didn't try joining other games.

Windows 10

you cant rejoin game! you must restart game to avoid crash  :beam:

Yep still happens. I will send you crash reports in pm
Title: Re: War2 crashing lately
Post by: iL on May 30, 2021, 05:02:28 PM
Thanks!
Can you please confirm or refute my idea:
Crash happens when you join the server, then leave and then join again not exiting war2?

Never happens when you start war2 and then join at the 1-st time?

And crash happens at the 1-st game after rejoin or 2-nd, 3-rd or more game?
Title: Re: War2 crashing lately
Post by: Szwagier on May 30, 2021, 06:22:04 PM
yes, you cant rejoin server without exiting w2

if you rejoin server - insta crash, you need just play without relog, if you need cause lag, you must restart w2

correct.

after a game you try to rejoin the same host but you get lat (90% of the time) so you reconnect to the server, and when it says "Checking versions..." it crashes/exit's the program.  so some of us have had to restart war2 entirely after every game, to play the next game.

My crashing has only occurred when I join a game lobby, not in checking versions screen like with woofy.
Title: Re: War2 crashing lately
Post by: Harrywangs on June 01, 2021, 12:49:30 AM
Same with Mikulz. When I join the game lobby. I've even had it 2x to the same game I've tried to join. The 3rd time it works. After that initial issue, its fine after that. It also has seemed that it has happened when another person joins but that may just be coincidence or just the error happening that prevented someone from joining. I've heard ppl say map dist before it happens to me too.

It happens when I first start playing again. Generally after afk (I think?) or open war2. The program literally just closes. Mostly with no error msg but sometimes with some exe msg? I don't recall.

So, @Harrywangs @8)MikulZ(8 @woofy @Szwagier @Player and others
As i understand that was the proper sequence:

0. You use win10
1. You start war2
2. You join the server.war2.ru
3. Till you are online, you play with no crashes.
4. For some reason (like lags) you leave the server and then join back.
5. You join some game, waiting in lobby and get crash. Sometimes with messagebox, sometimes without it. Sometimes no crash at all.

I need to catch the problem to fix it, as i understood the key is 4. You leave the server and then join back, not exiting war2.
After that you have possible delayed problems, always in lobby, right?

Title: Re: War2 crashing lately

Just updated, try now, should not cause crash when you join/rejoin the server since this moment.
Try that please.
