OpenJK Crashed Regular JAPLus not JA++ upon loading.

[Merek]

Hi OpenJK Crashed (openjk multiplayer) Regular JAPlus not JA++ upon loading. Is this a problem?

[MoonDog]

Hey, yeah. That's a problem, and I'm sure you'll get it fixed quickly. You provided a ton of information, so it shouldn't be an issue.

[eezstreet]

We don't need three different threads on this "issue". Stop it.

 

How about providing some information, such as:

• Whether you're running a server or a client
• Where you're getting your OpenJK binaries from
• Build date of the OpenJK build you're using (not completely necessary)
• What platform you're running on (Windows/Linux/Mac)
• Whether or not you're using JA++
• What other mods you might have in your base (not entirely pertinent but good to know)
• How you're running OpenJK (are you using the executable...?)
• A console log (helpful)
• When exactly it's crashing...on map load or game start?
• How you're starting OpenJK (via .bat? mind sharing the contents of that?)
• Where your OpenJK binary is in relation to your base folder (Is it in Gamedata?)
• What version of JA+ you're using (Shall I assume latest?)
• Whether or not you're using a debug build (provide a screenshot in the console and we can determine this easily)
• How it's crashing (Debug assertion failed? Freezing? Viewlog error with a specific message? Straight crash to desktop? what?)

bolded all the important stuff

I really am about ready to punch you...

[MoonDog]

I like it rough. Focus on your issue and do what eezstreet said.

• Whether or not you're using JA++ - no.
• What other mods you might have in your base (not entirely pertinent but good to know) - no other mods (fyi)
• How you're running OpenJK (are you using the executable...?)
• A console log (helpful) - not important since it crashed upon loading openjk > load mod > japlus > crash .
• When exactly it's crashing...on map load or game start? - see previous answer.
• How you're starting OpenJK (via .bat? mind sharing the contents of that?) - see previous previous answer
• Where your OpenJK binary is in relation to your base folder (Is it in Gamedata?) - yes in gamedata
• What version of JA+ you're using (Shall I assume latest?) - yes
• Whether or not you're using a debug build (provide a screenshot in the console and we can determine this easily) - no
• How it's crashing (Debug assertion failed? Freezing? Viewlog error with a specific message? Straight crash to desktop? what?) - Jedi Academy has encountered a problem. send or don't send.

crossed out the uneccessary junk and filled in the necessary stuff.

Don't use the Load Mod menu. Just use a .bat.

Particularly, one that looks like this...

 

openjk.x86.exe +set fs_game "japlus"

Also you ignored a pretty pertinent question. (Windows...or Mac?)

Whoops... sorry Windows of course. BTW Thank you and I will try not to triple post again.

[eezstreet]

Was your problem fixed?

[Merek]

once again, no. I did what u said and it still crashed. I am using version 2.4 and it keep crashing.

[Futuza]

Does it work without JA++?

Can you get other mods to work instead?

Which version of Windows? (8/7/XP/2000/98/95/Dos)

[Merek]

Windows XP Home Edition I think.

I am using JA+ not JA++ and it keeps crashing.

[Omicron]

Does OpenJK work without mods? This includes any pk3s you have added yourself.

And why do we have to ask this like 3 times before you answer it?

Cause apparenly it doesn't get across to him.

[h643]

It must be working because he gets to the mods menu

[Merek]

LOOK IT IS STILL AN ISSUE OKAY? OPENJK KEEPS CRASHING UPON LOADING JA+ BUILD 2.4 FROM EITHER THE MOD MENU OR THE .BAT FILE. I CANNOT FIND A VERSION FOR WINDOWS XP ONLY WINDOWS. EITHER THE WINDOWS VERSION ISN'T COMPATIBLE WITH XP OR I AM DOING SOMETHING WRONG.

[MoonDog]

You are doing very well! Caps lock makes sure you get help faster, I should know. I do it to the IT helpdesk guys at work all the time. BITCH FIX MY COMPUTER, IT BROKE

[Bacon]

Easy answer..stop using OpenJK...

[h643]

Try removing cgamex86.dll and uix86.dll from

/Documents and Settings/USERNAME/My Documents/My Games/OpenJK/japlus/

Not 100% sure on file path because I don't have XP

[Merek]

Yes it does.

[Merek]

okay, so I apparently got it to work because when of an incorrect file that was automatically placed in my documents >  my games > openjk > japlus. But I am still getting the misc_model_ghoul error in multiplayer. Doesn't OpenJK fix that?

[Merek]

I cannot launch a server using openjk and JA++. JA++ apparently does work to a smaller extent.

Is this just in the console?  Also you may have an old version of OpenJK before that fix.
