Fatal Signal 11

Fatal Signal 11

Postby bluwarguy » 28 Jul 2013, 21:48

whenever i try to play red eclipse i get the error Fatal Signal 11. It usually happens when i right click or edit a map. i was wondering how to fix this myself or if the devs could fix the problem ingame. any help would be appreciated.

1) Where did you download Red Eclipse from?
2) What operating system are you using? Is it 32 or 64 bit?
3) What video card are you using? How up to date are the drivers?
4) .. probably more, but let's start with that.

Intel GMA drivers (especially WinXP) are notorious for their outstanding craptacularliness. Try making sure your drivers are up to date. You might also want to try clearing the contents of your "My Documents/My Games/Red Eclipse/" folder.

A quick search returns that the command is right.

ive looked up what a segmentation violation is and this is it:
The following are some typical causes of a segmentation fault:
Attempting to execute a program that does not compile correctly. Some compilers will output an executable file despite the presence of compile-time errors.
Dereferencing NULL pointers
Attempting to access memory the program does not have rights to (such as kernel structures in process context)
Attempting to access a nonexistent memory address (outside process's address space)
Attempting to write read-only memory (such as code segment)
A buffer overflow
Using uninitialized pointers

It's okay, I know what a segfault is. Unfortunately, the issue seems isolated to you, and I am at a loss as to what could possibly be different between you and everyone else (for whom RE works without crashing). Are you using the NSIS installer downloaded from Sourceforge, or did you try to use Desura? Also, how long ago did you download it?

Have you tried updating the Intel GMA drivers from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/?

ok i narrowed it down to when it causes the segfault; it happens whenever i use the secondary fire modes on all weapons except rifle and sword

That is really strange, and you are the first person we've had this problem with. Unfortunately, without sitting in front of your computer myself and running the game through a debugger, I don't know how to fix the issue for you.

You could try, you'll need to download codeblocks (probably the one with GCC bundled would be best). It isn't for the faint of heart.

Could you guys share some info on your hardware too? I'm not aware of any fatal bugs in the code at the moment.

Solution:
Restarting the laptop fixes the issue for me. I think it might be somehow related to using suspend or external monitors. Anyway, it seems to me, that it's Intel driver problem, not RE.

My hard ware specs: dell 2400,1024mb ddr, intel 845G intergrated video 64mb,windows xp sp3 .....red eclipse worked fine until i updated the svn version, nothing about my hardware has changed but obviously something changed with red eclipse because after updating it,it no longer works,of course you can blame the crappy intel hardware instead of admitting something in the code changed that affects people with older intel intergrated cards and windows xp..but the fact remains it worked before the update....so common sense tells me its not my hardware...its something that changed in the code.....i am not mad about it...just want you to know its not the peoples hardware thats causing the issues, it is the changes being made through development....the reason i have played red eclipse since it was blood frontier several years ago was because it has been the one of the best FPS that my hardware can handle...but now since the changes in the svn code, i am no longer able to play.maybe someone will figure out why before the next official release...till then i am stuck playing the last release (which still works)...

When you use SVN, you are agreeing to use a potentially unstable version. This is not helped by the fact that you have given me no information on the actual problem. Please note that if you are using SVN, you need to compile the game yourself, as we no longer provide binaries every revision.
