T3D RC1 Big Bug...

#1 So I'm trying to reproduce this issue, but can't with the stock guns. Is there a specific test case you can help us out with so we can try to get this issue figured out?

#2 Huh?

Ah, Steven said it better than I.

#3 Hey there.
Just having a squizz myself. I know this sounds rather simple, but make sure you have no USB gamepad connected, just to make sure. I had this issue with an Xbox 360 controller connected , only to realise that it was in fact a trigger that was being lightly pressed by some books. Also.. I noticed in the Deathball/Burg demo, that instead of firing with a mouse button press, it seems by default to fire when they are left free. Press em down and it stops firing! :)

Im not sure if this is actually a MAJOR bug.. or a "bug" at all... I dont really have a lot of time atm.. sorry :(

Yet.. I did notice a slight clipping with the audio. But no major dramas as such.

Awesome release by the way! :) Even though this is not the place to say so!

Take it easy, everyone!

#4 I'm not sure if I understand exactly what is being said. I did however notice that RC1 crashes if you load the desert map. Switch to weapon 2. Hold down the fire button until you run out of ammo. Of course you won't run out of ammo because it crashes before that happens. I almost thought pressing the right mouse button did something to make it crash faster but that doesn't appear to be the case.

#5 Can't say I've seen any crashing problems with either the Rocket or Grenade launcher. The alt-fire mode for the Grenade Launcher was disabled but that shouldn't affect anything to do with it's regular fire.

Will investigate though.

#6 Following JesseL's steps I get the same crash....

I ran it in debug to get a stack trace. It's crashing while incrementing the ref count, but notice the "this" pointer is set to the debug memory values.

Locals:
+ this 0xfeeefeee {mRefCount=??? } StrongRefBase * const

#8 Well the good news is i haven't recreated this in the current 1.1 trunk.

But i need to try it in the 1.0 trunk... find the issue... and make sure its been fixed right.
