Alpha 223 SUMLauncher + Steam crash bug?

Post by Bt2breakskn » Mon May 09, 2016 8:49 pm

Hey guys n' gals! Seems I've found a consistent crash spot using SUMLauncher paired with Steam. I can usually load the main content on Overgrowth just fine using SUMLauncher, however whenever I try to load custom maps or anything like that, it crashes as soon as the loading screen tells me it's starting the game. Thoughts? Image

Hi!

I've looked at your crash dump and it seems like it might be related to a modified aschar.as, enemycontrol.as or playercontrol.as as the crash is occuring somewhere in one of the scripts.

I'd try uninstalling all mods, and then reinstalling them one by one until you figure out what mod might cause this.

SUMLauncher isn't always consistent from what I've found, most custom levels that work for other people, don't work for me and some objects don't appear as they should, I have no clue why this is the case.

I do remember that when I installed OGMP from SUMLauncher, it crashed with every level, and I'd assume that could be the case with your game (as I think it alters one of the .as files). OGMP does, however, work completely fine when installed by hand

Is the OGMP on SUMLauncher outdated, but the manual install one not?

I've had this problem before, just uninstall OGMP and you'll be fine. It isn't fully compatible with the latest versions of Overgrowth, yet.
