Crash after updating

[Laurens]

Hi,

 

I have just updated the SDK and am no longer able to run my project. At the first call to RenderFramework(), Windows locks up, the screen goes black for about a second and when it's back, the LE window is unresponsive and I have to terminate the project from within Visual Studio. I have attached a screenshot of the log since it won't properly write to file.

 

I am using the latest ATI drivers, released 8/25/2010, version 8.762.0.0.

 

Other specs are in my profile.

 

Any clue as to why this is happening appreciated!

 

Thanks!

Just rolled back to LE 2.32 and the same thing happend even though this release worked for me before. I'll see what happens if I roll back the ATI drivers to an earlier version and let you know.

 

Cheers!

Well, turns out rolling back the ATI drivers fixed it. ATI has been dropping the ball on their drivers lately. Next card will probably be an NVIDIA one

don't worry when am back from my holiday i will report to ati they broken the drivers again.

but can you please say what card you got as it may just be one card broken and not all

 

 

opps i see in the pic you have a 4870x2 but still put you spec in your profile

it a lot easy to see then looking at screen shoots

Hi Carl,

 

The specs of my PC are in the "Technical Specs" section of my profile as per that new feature put in WerkSpace

 

Thanks for reporting though! Seems like you are much more knowledgeable in this field

 

Cheers!

I have just tested the latest ATI drivers in a clean Windows 7 x64 installation and up-to-date version of Leadwerks. Same problem. Think I can safely rule out it was a problem relating to my configuration then.

 

Edit: Editor runs just fine. I'm confused as to what it could be now

[Laurens]

This piece of code won't run, getting an error message from Windows saying the display driver has stopped responding, yet Editor works just fine.

 

EDIT: the display driver crashes on both the RenderFramework call and the Flip call. UpdateFramework is fine.

 

#include <stdlib.h>

#include "engine.h"

int main()
{
Initialize();
Graphics(1280, 800);

CreateFramework();

while (!AppTerminate()
	&& !KeyHit())
{
	UpdateFramework();
	RenderFramework();

	Flip();
}

Terminate();

return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

I believe the problem is fixed. Please sync your SDK.

[Laurens]

That did it!

 

Thanks a million for fixing it this fast

 

Guess I can stick with ATI cards after all

[carlb]

How's this for a slogan:

 

Leadwerks: We prevent you from making a fool of yourself.

 

No?
