Topic: Error while playing

English :3
When I play Teeworlds sometimes it crushes at random times. Sometimes I just stand around or sometimes I run to an enemy.
The error is (try of translation ;D) "Teeworlds.exe detected an error and has to be closed"
I never get this while playing other games. So, any help?

German :3
Wenn ich Teeworlds spiele, stürzt es manchmal an zufälligen Stellen ab. Manchmal steh ich nur rum und manchmal renne ich gerade auf einen Gegner zu.
Der Fehler ist "Teeworlds.exe hat ein Problem festgestellt und muss beendet werden"
Ich bekomme den Fehler bei keinem anderen Spiel. Hat wer eine Lösung?

Re: Error while playing

More info! are you on vista or xp or 2000 or..?

do you have all service packs installed?

try running the command prompt (run: cmd), run teeworlds from there, wait until it crashes and see what the command prompt says. Then copy it and paste here.

Re: Error while playing

Sorry, I forgot.
I have Windows XP Service Pack 3.

When I try to run it with cmd I get a lot of "failed to load file xyz" and I don't have sound and only graphics like this:

Re: Error while playing

seems like the data folder is missing... make sure the data folder is there where the "teeworlds.exe" is!

uptee - a simple web interface for hosting and maintaining teeworlds servers
teerace - a website gathering results of trusted Race-mod servers providing global ranking and statistics
*gV* rox ^^

Re: Error while playing

If the data folder would be missing I couldn't even start the game I think ;D

It's only when I start it from cmd.

Re: Error while playing

Open command line. There will this:

C:\Documents and settings\-Your username-> (cursor)

If you havent got TeeWorlds on desktop, please move it there and type this:

cd Desktop\TeeWorlds

and then:

teeworlds.exe

I cant know how is your desktop folder named. If there will any problems still, then I dont know yikes

Re: Error while playing

Try to update all drivers, I really can't know what is it caused by, because of it didn't returned any error message.
Maybe.. Are you using any firewall or antivirus software? Try to disable it and play TeeWorlds again

Re: Error while playing

I updated my drivers and deactivated Antivir but I does still not work hmm
(same error as before)

/edit: I tried again and it crushed again and...

It that that the error is: "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

Re: Error while playing

Man, your images are not loaded, are you sure that you extract all files in the same folder ?

Re: Error while playing

Neo-Bahamut:
I am sure this is not caused by TeeWorlds. I have asked my friend - he is computer guru (he worked in Microsoft wink ) and he said it can be caused by much and much of reasons, so, what can you do?
1) Open computer and check if are your graphic card(s) properly retracted
2) It can be also caused by unsigned driver, did you downloaded driver from official page?
3) Check all fans and heatsinks, mainly near graphic card(s), processor and motherboard, if are they working properly
4) If you installed new antivirus software or any other tool used for manipulation with harddisc, uninstall them! It can be caused by this too
5) You can also check your memory with GoldMemory tool
If you will do all I said and it still will not work, then open:
Computer (on desktop) -> Properties -> Details -> Running and recovering system -> Options -> System crashes -> Uncheck "Automatically restart" and when the bluescreen shows again, post here informations in rectangle like in this image:

You should post here:

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
STOP: 0x00000050 (0xFD3094C2,0x00000001,0xFBFE7617,0x00000000)

Re: Error while playing

@Neo-Bahamut

hmm ok i just googled some things about your bluescreen.. "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
means most time that your cpu gets too hot.. (teeworlds uses most time 100% to run best) ...
or error with graphics card(gpu) or ram .. pls try khubajsn's GoldMemory tool ... and see whats up next...



you can also try 3d Mark to test your graphics card .. if all is still working.. its the cpu ...

Re: Error while playing

@ lordskelethom: You didn't read everything, did you?

@ khubajsn: I think it is because of the hardware, because my PC was repared some weeks ago and before that, I never had this problem (yeah, I know. I should have said this before^^)


I tried 3D Mark and well...
the first two tests ran with 30-70 FPS
The came the CPU test and the maximum FPS was... 1 xD"
Does this mean the problem is my CPU-fan (or whatever it has, I am a hardware-noob) or is it just very very very bad?

Re: Error while playing

hmmm cpu test with 1 fps.. hmm slow cpu big_smile ... tell me what cpu do you use ... find it out with:
cpuid ( http://www.cpuid.com/ )

"because my PC was repared some weeks ago and before that, I never had this problem (yeah, I know. I should have said this before^^)"

-----> can you tell us what was repaired?


*edit*
be carefull
newer cpus can change the speed:

Re: Error while playing

hmmm ok ... (netzteil in englisch: power supply) ...

maybe the power is too low in some situations or they forget an important power connector.
cpu should be fast enought to play tw and 1 fps in 3d mark is impossible with it ....
lets try another tool big_smile... with CoreTemp you can check your cpu's temerature and with intel burn test you can test how hot the cpu get if its 100% used smile ..... just post two screens of core temp... one with 0% cpu and one with 100% (100% at least 2 min "burn test" for warm up)

links:

core temp(just run it and enable logging -> play tw):

http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/

german page for intel burn test:

http://ht4u.net/download-details/363/969/

-> settings:

error detection: Yes
1- Maximal stress
run 3 times...

good luck

Re: Error while playing

I don't think my power supply is too bad. I calculated the needed watt of my PC and it was about 300 and my power supply has 420.

I downloaded the 2 programs.
Here you can see Core Temp with 0%: http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/2221 … mpscr0.png
Here you can see it after 2 minutes Teeworlds: http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/3810 … pscr90.png
And then I ran Intel Burn Test but before it ended the temperature in bpth cores was 100-110 °C and then my PC crushed again^^"

Re: Error while playing

@ khubajsn: I have one but I think its very very very very very very very bad D:
@ mrlantastic: I will try it with marmalade big_smile
But not before I bought a new one (next year or so) ;D

I think I'll by me a new ... whatever to cool down my CPU. If it still won't work, I will tell you :3

/edit: @ Dani: I have no camera ;D
My brother is not as hardware-nooby as I am and checked it. He said my fan is working but it's still very hot there.
PS: I wish I had a Quadcore D;

Re: Error while playing

you need to be a "small" pro to change the cpu fan big_smile.. just open you case and it will be a bit better...
but.. if you get often more then 100° your cpu get "burned"( -> search youtube cpu burn xD) .. and you have to buy a new one big_smile

Re: Error while playing

I can't open my PC that way because it has some special... casing ? (again i am missing the word smile
There is a cable from the part I can open to the Mainboard I think. And this cable is very short ^^
My brother had this problem once and he opened his PC and placed a ventilator beside it (I mean a big one^^)

Re: Error while playing

special casing? .. show me xD ... or just write a pm to me in german smile
funny idea with the big ventilator big_smile
