Ryzom

Did you check your logs ?

You can also launch it within VC++ and when it crashes you'll notice where (it's best to either enable symbols -DWITH_SYMBOLS=ON or use the Debug configuration).

Trying to run using debug is not productive as it crashes even before the release compile crashes. I have went an extra step and also compiled this on another box I setup just to troubleshoot and it comes up with the same access violation problem.

Here is the last bit of the log before the access violation, There are no errors in any of the log and it doesnt seem to actually log why its crashing.

When launching it from VC++, you have to change the "Debugging" -> "Working Directory" path to the folder where client.cfg, client_default.cfg, etc... can be found.

Ok, so I got the working directory set in debug, when I try to test the build it almost immediately comes up with a breakpoint and drops the ryzom error message box File "C:/Users/K/AppData/Roaming/Ryzom/'" not found. while in debug mode this directory does exsist so it is putting the appropriate files in there.

Call Stack

ryzom_client_d.exe!NLMISC::nlFatalError(const char * format=0x033f53fc, ...) Line 179 C++

which points to nlerror("cannot find client_default.cfg");
in client_cfg.cpp

ryzom_client_d.exe has triggered a breakpoint

So, when trying to run the debug I am getting even less mileage than when trying to run as a release as mentioned before.
I just wish I knew what the problem was.

Thanks

Please could you check if your "Working directory" is correct ?

The error is very explicit... You didn't put the right folder where there is "client_default.cfg". So it tries to use a folder in your user profile.

yep, got it now, did not have it under client, was on build all. Thanks for being patient with me.

What do you think?

It seems like it's a crash in XAudio2 driver and line 135 is :

_MusicFader[i].MusicChannel->setVolume(_MusicFader[i].XFadeVolume * _Gain);

I suspect "MusicChannel" being NULL, but I have no idea why :(

Perhaps Kaetemi could help you, he's the sound driver specialist :)

Did you notice an error in logs ?

well the logs dont show anything pertaining to the crash problem. Thats why this has been a bit frustrating.
the audio is nothing special just a realtek HD audio.

Well since that was leading me nowhere, I deleted everything and re-downloaded a fresh source, went about re-building everything. Do you know why nel_drv_direct3d_win is not building? I dont recall it being in the cmake..

Thanks

You should verify in cmake-gui that WITH_DRIVER_DIRECT3D is really checked :)

Kervala, I just want to thank you for the help. But the source just will not compile. I have spent pretty close to a week now attempting to get a compile that would run without error but its just not in the stars. I have used seperate computers, Tried MSVC8, MSVC10 and followed the instructions to the letter. It still looks for direct3d file and if compiled as release I can copy that from the distro and will run till it crashes on the sound init. I was really looking forward to experimenting with it. Seems Im just kicking a dead horse.. Oh well.
