Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

GZDoom crashes with a mod after adding BIGFONT to it

Post by SpeedStriker243 »

This seemingly only happens when BIGFONT is added to the PK3's graphics directory, I get the following:

Code: Select all

Code: C0000005 (tried to read address 0000000000000000)
Address: 00007FF78806CE14
(I just realised I put this in the wrong place and don't know how to move it)

Please post the mod. The crashlog without the data causing it is rather unhelpful.

How exactly do I post it? Just uploading it here results in a "too large" error.

Here's a link to the mod's GitHub page, which currently does not include the BIGFONT, I'll upload that separately

Just checked -- the BIGFONT file itself is definitely the problem. I tried adding it into its own WAD which produced the same error.

The crash was fixed in this commit, change to FFont::LoadTranslations() in particular. It's not in 4.6.1 though.

So... I either have to build from source or wait for 4.6.2?

Next version will be 4.7.0, but essentially, yes.
