GunGame 5 Forums

This has been onging since i started trying to use the GunGame5 mod. I have never used it before; I have setup several server before (but i am no expert).. I am now totally at the end of my short rope here. The server jsut STOPS. total crash. it always restarts without issues and without error.

I would post my logs .. but honestly there is nothing to post ... it jsut STOPS. Its random. Some days it will crash once .. others it will crash 5+ times. NO ryme or reason.
... sometimes after a kill .. sometimes just from walking. sometimes after 1min sometimes 10mins into a round .. sometimes 30mins into it. It is definatley NOT happening during any particualar event, map, or time. Its not related to a levelup/down .. 2users .. or 15users ... bots enabled or disabled .. its that random.
NOTE: Never crashes at map change, voting, users joining/leaving. Ping time always remain stable.

Things i have tried:
- Removing/ disabling all addons
- removing all sound events
- re-insalling everything
- completely wiping the server and starting new
- removed bot / added bots
- hurled the mouse
- cursed repeatedly while flailing in the direction of 'up'

I HAVE EVEN GONE SO FAR AS TO CONTACT MY HOST AND MOVE MY SERVER TO A DIFFERENT IP AND BOX !!! Re-INSATLLED ALL NEW .. and BLAM - still happens !

SERVER INFO:
I have the server set to Deathmatch, with respawn instantly on death. Turbo mode on (instant weapon switch), glock with nade level .. weapon order normal. gg5 NOBLOCK ENABLED. I use the gg5 config for !rank/!top/etc; All of mani's vots/stats/etc features are disabled.

Addons that i am using.
mani_admin_plugin_v1_2_beta
Version Information:
* EventScripts: 2.0.0.250
* ES_Tools: 0.420
* GunGame: 5.0.585
* Popup: oy28
* OS Type: posix
and of course i did install the gg_spawn patch

Again .. I HAVE NOT POSTED LOGS BECASUE THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE.

PLease guys .. i have no idea what i am doing wrong. Any input is welcome!

as an interesting side note, i also have another server with the same host (totally differnt ip/box) that i use for 'obsticle' and 'fun' type maps. I have no issues with it; no mods on that other than the same version of mani.

First have a look here:

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=641


Then i would remove EST and try Gungame_Utils. But im afraid that even wont help in the end. We got exactly the same problem and it seems just to be Gungame5 that causes it.

I have no experiacne with it; perhaps if i used gungame 3 or 4?
is there alot of diference in funtionality? repawning .. etc?

anyone have info/links .. err something ?



Thx

SO, i have dropped down to GG4 .. no crashes/hangs!! YAY.

However i quicky noticed that gg5 is WAY better;

so i'm still open to ANY sugestions as to why i cannot get gg5 to work without server crashes;


TempletonPeck: did you ever fix your issues?

Thx

My understanding is there is an ES fix that helps with crashes but so far Mattie has only done a Windows version. He's been going through some personal issues and at some point hopes to release a Linux version.

No. I restart my Server 2times a day, i reload and load gungame automatically every map (which helps against fps drops) but it still crashes sometimes and unexpected.


DON: I send him the link to the Memory Leak Thread already.

GunGame5 will always crash and the main reason is gg_turbo its give weapons to dead players. This causes gunagem to override eventrscripts and it dont like it so it crashed. My Server deos it the ive found that 581 is the best verson out of em all.

I'm quite certain that (if this were to occur, but it has never been reported before) this would not crash a server.

You can check out the known issue for GunGame5 crashes (due to an EventScripts bug) here:

I have already updated the memory leak fix which works well.
however it is still having error logs in regards to gg_turbo

Can you confirm you are using the gg_turbo from the latest gg5 download? (http://addons.eventscripts.com/addons/view/gungame)

It should not try to give a weapon to any dead players....

first part of the code:


That snipplet stops the weapon giving process if the player is dead or in spec, are you sure you are not using some !give mod or something?

I do you "!give"

Does this have an effect on the gg_turbo?

Im not entirely sure.

All i want is a gg5 server that no matter what you do it, it wont crash lol! Id be willing to pay for it

Well, if someone uses !give when they are dead, and your custom addon doesnt have any dead checks, that could lead to errors.

Im currently running gg_give from the eventscripts forums.
Im not sure if it has a dead checks forumulation in it?
here is the link to the gg_give mod.

Well, it seems to check for it:Are there any other scripts you run that could possibly give dead players weapons?

Satoon

No just that and gg_turbo?
