D2X-XL Bug Reports - MS Windows
Moderators: Grendel, Aus-RED-5
I have been getting a strange crashing problem with D2X-XL for some time now. If I minimize (alt-tab) D2X-XL at any time and try to maximize it again, I instantly get a BSOD and my computer self-reboots. Is this a known problem? It doesn't occur in any other game I have. Also, this is not an issue on my laptop, so it seems to be something specific to certain hardware/driver configurations.

v1.6.28 with more log messages available. Some problem when reading the Descent 1 data, it seems. You can try to delete descent.pig from your D2 installation, but if you don't I might be able to figure what is going wrong here.

CP5670,
I have noticed that D2X-XL often won't maximize again after alt+tabbing out of it, but no BSODs.
My copy of 1.6.27 doesn't do this
I also had a hostage that looked like he was swimming slowly up and through the roof.
The thiefbot would disappear and re-appear, not take damage and seem to not notice me, all in a particular area. In the level before though it was fine.
I am currently parked in front of a robot according to the map but nothing is there nor does anything attack me, nor can I shoot anything.
A savegame at this point is available. vertigo Lvl 2
Q. what are the ?secret.sgc files????
but it does have a sound problem. 1 particular sound sounds like br-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r when you are supposed to hear it. whatever it is activates at the correct proximity to its trigger as it comes and goes as you move in certain spaces.PKMaestro wrote:the game crashes when trying to enter Advanced Render Options, after activating Show Expert Options in Miscellaneous section. This problem happens only when using a player file created with an older version of D2X-XL.

Re:
On further investigation, it looks like this may be related to the Geforce 7 video cards in some way (I forgot to mention that it occurs in FS2 as well). See my post here:Diedel wrote:CP5670,

http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index. ... #msg802659
Does anyone here have one of these cards and can reproduce these crashes?
Re:
I'll see to that in the evening. The same data was working w/ d2x-w32 tho..Diedel wrote:Grendel,
your Descent.pig seems whacked. See your PM.
I just can't get HiRez-textures to work - the weird thing is: I shared the D2X-XL folder on the LAN and accessed it from my brother's Laptop, so it's the same forlders, the same files, the same settings and guess what - it works! He's got an ATI Radeon mobility and I've got a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 - I can't imagine why it doesn't work - I can't believe the graphics card isn't capable of displaying the HiRez textures - Unreal Tournament 2004 for example works like a charm
btw: I also got the latest drivers, of course
btw: I also got the latest drivers, of course
May be because of the shader programs - although they should work like a breeze on a Ti 4200. Try to run with -printlog switch and check d2x.log for what it says about shaders. You can run them using -gl_alttexmerge 0, but then I recommend turning texture quality down from 'very high' (512x512) to 'high' (256x256), because D2X-XL will create a new texture for each frame each animated texture.

Yep.. Make sure expert options is enabled.Grendel wrote:Alright, 1.6.30 w/ a replaced DESCENT.PIG & DESCENT.HOG now works
For some reason the Y axis on my joystick is very unresponsive (ship moves barely up/down) and I didn't find a way to adjust it. Any ideas ?
Then go into controls to set joy settings.

Did you check to make sure that in your render options that its set to "highest"?

Keyboard ramping still not saved
Version 1.6.34
As explained above, keyboard ramping still sticks on 50% after level change or start playing singleplayer.
Tested it with newly created Pilot, still the same.
