lightning catapults in bloody foothills

Post by u5ndh » Tue Jun 24, 2003 7:03 pm

HI,

While playing the mod anywhere where you get catapults i keep getting errors and the game crashes. I'm not sure on the exact error but i've worked out that it's some problem with catapults when they fire a lightning ball.

This is annoying but i can run passed them all and get round it that way. It does mean i can't level up in the bloddy foothills though.

Just thought i'd add this problem in case it hadn't come up before

This was in versions 3 aswell as the current one.

Ya, i get that problem as well, its obviously a bug in the game thats doing that.. :(

Talk to afterlife, he will fix it up most likely .. :D

Anyways, other than that, just keep avoiding them all for now ..

well i've been mentioning this bug since start of last release.....
and im pretty sure its just lightning catapults... we had the same error on another mod,, with them dropping WAY too many charged bolts.. which resulted ina crash
reducing those should solve the problem

The weird thing is, I never edited anything with the catapults. I'll take a look at them and see if there is anything abnormal.

Could you tell me the error you get? Are you able to see the ball of lightning before it hits the ground?

cant see the ball of lightning no... i think its something with either the level of the catapults, or the very high level of spells monsters cast....

Well the level of the catapults were relatively high. That was the only thing I could find abnormal about them so I set them much much lower.

I am trying to get through the bloody foothills right now on the server...
I hope I dont crash at all... :cry: yesterday when i tried going through the bloody foothills i crashed and then the server was down.. :x
I'll try and get the error message tho if it crashes again; i usually get {filtered} and start pressing enter..

my game just crashed in that place right after blood hills :!: :x :OI:
lemme type this {filtered} error...
assertion error location: d2client\skills\skills.cpp, line #981
expression : (nmissiles - 1) / 5 <= MISSILEARRAY_TABLE_LENGTH

According to Brother Laz the catapults get +4 bolts per level. So they were doing well over 400 bolts per hit. I lowered all their skills much lower so it won't crash anymore.

Please stop making fun of Canadia, they are like the hat of the U.S. I will release v2.1 no matter how far I get on it on Sunday. With this version there will be no more crashes on the realm from catapults.

It seems like the Cats are still a problem with the new 2.1 patch. Or at least to me. They still crash my game the same, lit balls show up, don't explode, crash game. Is this just me? I installed the New 2.1 corretly, I'm already using some of the new stones, so It's got to be in right...

I fixed what I was told to fix based on the problem but since I don't play the mod I am unable to test it. Anybody else getting the problem still? If so I'll have to release a patch which will only be a few hundred kb and will fix the current version.
