Are you using voice chat? |
|
I have used voice chat once. Outside of the game though. Never while playing. |
|
Thanks, we'll investigate more. |
|
Not sure if these are related at all, but I've noticed when I start DoD I get these errors in the stdout.txt file. Failed to load installscript /home/jeff/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life/installscript.vdf [0417/082407:ERROR:resource_bundle.cc(411)] Failed to load /home/jeff/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life/cef_gtk.pak |
|
Neither of this is related to the crash, unfortunately. |
|
Do you know how to use gdb? Output from that could be useful. |
|
I do not, but I can figure it out. What's the command to start DoD with gdb? gdb ./hl_linux ?? |
|
That's what the man page seems to indicate, but it hasn't worked for me. |
|
The only thing that seems to work for debugging is this. DEBUGGER=gdb steam |
|
Edit the launch options of DoD to be |
|
Now I'm confused. My game has crashed 4 times today and I can't seem to get gdb to work. What are the exact steps to run gdb for DoD? |
|
Method I have used that used to work, but now there's some weird issue with launching GoldSrc games from the command line for me:
Method that should work:
|
|
Hmm... looks like ./hl.sh: line 38: 31683 Segmentation fault ${DEBUGGER} "${GAMEROOT}"/${GAMEEXE} $@ |
|
Can you attach ALL of gdb's output as a gist, please? |
|
It doesn't appear that gdb is outputting anything. Should I be looking for a text file somewhere? |
|
Finally....I was able to get this by running the DEBUGGER=gdb steam |
|
Is that everything the |

Actually I forgot about the bt command. That was just in the console after the game crashed. It didn't drop to the (gdb) prompt so not sure if bt would work. Sorry this gdb stuff is new to me. In fact linux on a desktop is. My locale is definitely en_US though. I'll report back if I get anything out of the bt command. Thanks. |
|
After DoD crashes, if I hit Ctrl-C I can drop to the gdb prompt and run bt.
|
|
SIGINT is you hitting ctrl+c, wait for it to drop to the gdb prompt after it segfaults, rather than interrupting it. |
|
It doesn't drop to the gdb prompt (unless I exit steam)....since I'm debugging Steam and not DoD directly. How can I debug just the game? Since I can't find ANY documentation on debugging Valve games.......finally found this article on how to debug.

Thanks, the CreateDebrisWallPuff is most likely the culprit and that will hopefully let us figure out what's wrong in the game. |
|
So any idea when this might be fixed? |
|
A little bump here, this issue has been open for more than a 1.5 years. If you want to reproduce it, just get in front of a shooting mg or shoot with one a bit. |
|
This crash also happens in Mac OS X Yosemite, every 20 minutes or so, it is most unfortunate! |
|
I returned to dod after 5 years and now I have a Mac. It happens to me exactly what is discussed here. I have noticed that usually spend more on large maps that small. Do you think correct this bug? It's a shame because you can not play like that. Is there a command that can be activated and to eliminate or reduce the potential for this problem to happen? Thanks and regards. |

Closing in favor of ValveSoftware/halflife#1447. |
I'll just be playing along just fine and my game will disappear. stdout.txt file in the /var/dumps folder shows this seg fault error.
/home/jeff/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life/hl.sh: line 38: 14174 Segmentation fault ${DEBUGGER} "${GAMEROOT}"/${GAMEEXE} $@

Not sure if it's related to drivers or what.
If there's anything I can do to better troubleshoot, let me know.
Thanks.
