Hi,

Sometimes I need to set up my own server for ~10 people. I don't launch ioUrtDed, just /map command in-game.

Well, it worked well in 4.1.1, but now, when we are all playing for a few minutes, my UrT immediately crashes very badly - I have to turn it off with Task Manager and set proper gamma in video card's driver, because it stays bright in Windows (I have high r_gamma in UrT).

/auth_enable is set to 0 and /hunk_alloc to 512.


System: Windows 7 32bit
Processor: Intel Core i5
Video: ATI Radeon HD6000 family

It should be fixed in 4.2.002

Something similar (?) happens every 10 minutes more or less on my (dedicated) server and it crashes (sever disconnetted). Is it the same problem?

This is from qconsole log:

I too am getting server crashes but they seem to be related to bots (which are technically unsupported). I have not experienced one of these crashes when bot_enable was set to 0.

If you set bot_enable to 0 on the server will it still crash?

[moonq3]

Yes, this definitely happens when bot_enable = 0 and when third party maps are removed, which were the two biggest culprits for 4.1 crashes. This seems to be a new bug. Barbatos indicated they think it may be related to the new hitmesh code.

[bw|lebbra]

I confirm bot_enable = 0 and no third party maps in /q3ut4

As I said the crash issues should be fixed in the upcoming 4.2.002 version.

Could you please provide us a release date for the update. I have switched back to 4.1.1 because there is no way I can run 10 servers per day with 5 to 7 crashes per day per server. Before you fix anything else you should resolve the server crashes. Without a stable build you will continue to see players revert to 4.1.

[bw|lebbra]

I know that FS say "it's ready when it's ready" but Ronaldlee question is important. Not because we want to push dev team to issue a 002 version, but just to estimate if in the meanwhile it is better to switch back to 4.1.1 or not. Just to understand if it is one week, one month, or six month...

Server crash problem solved within days. Easy fix hard to find.


When it's done with the updated in place and stable would = fix on Sunday and push on Monday.
