Author Topic: Game crashes when I attempt to load bricks  (Read 2044 times)

Memory is not the issue. The game will not crash due to lack of memory, just run very slowly.
Windows XP will automatically close processes that exceed the available memory. There is typically a warning right before that limit is reached, though.

No it doesn't. It moves it into page file, which is slow and controlled by the hard drive.

Yeah, and the warning says that it's increasing the page file so less frequently used memory gets moved to page file.

I used to get this all the time on my old computer, in many games. It wouldn't ever close the game, it would just start running slowly, or having spikes constantly.

It's not my RAM. I have run this game on 512 MB of RAM for years... without lag... up until just now. It's something else, and I bet it has something to do with the last update.

In fact, I used to run Blockland while running Firefox and my Windows Mediaplayer at the same time.

No... I need a solution, not excuses.

Here is the Trace Console log requested, uploaded on Mediafire, as directed.

It actually seems to be an error with RTB for some reason.

Try removing RTB (temporarily) and try again.

Feels like a dumb question, but how do I go about doing that?

Take it out of Add-ons.

Doesn't seem to be that simple...

I open my add-ons folder and it's loaded with files. I saw roughly 20-25 files labeled RTB , so I moved those to a folder on my desktop, but when I open Blockland, it still says "RTB Version" etc. in the top right corner. I don't see any other files that appear to be in-connection-with RTB, so I honestly don't know how to go about completely removing it.

System_ReturnToBlockland.zip, in Documents\Blockland\Add-ons, not C:\Blockland or Program Files\Blockland

I didn't find it manually, it must have been hidden or something. I searched my drive for it and found it, so I moved it to a folder.

I then ran Blockland and RTB was gone, however, the game is still crashing upon placing a single brick.

New console log with RTB removed.



You have tons of addons. and anyone of them could be your problem. I suggest you restart on your addons folder, or atleast delete ones you don't use

I'm not attached to any of them to be honest, I was actually thinking about cleaning out all those extra bricks I don't use. 95% of my builds are all default bricks anyway.

I'll do it and see what happens, If I'm still stuck, I'll post a new console trace.

Here's what you do.

Start a game with all add-ons If that doesn't work, reinstall blockland. If not, try this:
Disable all addons. Then, check off a group of addons (ex. Bricks) and start a game. If it doesn't crash, then exit the game and disable the group. Keep doing this until it crashes. Then go through the group by enabling one add-on per game. That way you'll find the bad-on!
