Neither for me.

I can't get it to work either.

I'm getting the same error myself, strangely, running the game from the command prompt using the same command that the one displayed in the "Other" tab in the launcher makes the game run fine, WTF?! <!-- s:x --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mad.gif" alt=":x" title="Mad" /><!-- s:x -->

Er, what do you mean?

[quote="Necromancer":2olop0xt]Er, what do you mean? He means that there's the "Other" tab in kalauncher program that shows full command by which vavoom engine should be run. If this is so, there could be chance that both kalauncher and karena executable do something wrong. Gonna check these. EDIT: Running from commandline does not make it work either. More than that, it seems that problem is not in KA itself. Running just a Vavoom engine with autodetection (game is original Hexen) hangss up my PC and debug log is:

- VMethod::OptimiseInstructions
- VMethod::CompileCode
- VMethod::PostLoad
- VMemberBase::StaticLoadPackage
- VMemberBase::StaticLoadPackage
- CL_Init
- Host_Init

Can it be something wrong with Vavoom version used there?

I've mailed Janis about the issue, let's hope he gives some clues for the problem <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->.

The game crashed when I brought the enemy flag back to base when playing CTF.

Ok, now game plays (0.9.2.1). [quote="Necromancer":6be5lrj2]The game crashed when I brought the enemy flag back to base when playing CTF. When reporting bugs, please attach call stack as well just in case.

Ohhh, I gotta try this out when I get the time.

WOW, you've done a fuckload of work since last time...! A couple of things. I don't get the "domination" or "x-mas" havoc game modes...

[quote="TheCount":2ehicu3r]A couple of things. I don't get the "domination" or "x-mas" havoc game modes... First of all - I just found a bug that makes them end too fast. When playing Domination and XMas Havoc - set score limit to maximum, currently 0 score limit works not as "unlimited" but as 0 <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( --> I think we should update the release once again, it's too terrible bug to leave it as is. Domination is a copy of Unreal Tournament 'Domination'. There are 'bases' all around map (well, 3 of them on that single map but in theory there could be less or more). When you stand on the base it become captured - you see that symbol graphic change to the color of your team. Captured base provide your team 1 score point approximately each 2 seconds. Thus more bases captured, faster score earned. Basically idea is that you should run around map, capturing these bases then defending them from opponents. XMasHavoc is a joke. Goal is to burn as much XMasTrees as possible. You can do that only by the weapon that burns (has fire damage) - Fighter Hammer of Retirbution, Cleric's Firestorm, Marine's Rocket Launcher etc. These Trees respawn over some time, so you can burn more )) Actually its better to play with socre and/or time limit set, otherwise there wouldn't be much sense.

It all makes sense now. I had tried playing domination with 0 score limit...

i keep getting this how do i fix this game mode indeterminate stack trace:-setupgameDIR-fl_init-host_init please help if possible

[quote="baratus":1vwyc56k]i keep getting this how do i fix this game mode indeterminate stack trace:-setupgameDIR-fl_init-host_init please help if possible Possibly you run wrong executable. You should run kalauncher.exe.
