MacBook Pro crashes

by Mathieu · in Torque Game Engine · 10/25/2007 (1:04 am) · 6 replies

I have multiple reports of Penguins Arena crashing on MacBook Pro.
Each time it's working when playing in windowed mode but freezes during map loading when playing fullscreen.
The computers totally locks up and the users have to make a force reboot ("force quit" do not work).

We're using TGE 1.5.2.

Here one console.log, I will upload another one later today.
consolePA_macbookpro.log

Does anyone encounter a similar issue? Is TGE 1.5.2 working on MacBook Pro?

Edited: removed previous comments.

I experienced a crash while loading on my iMac with ATI x1600 while in fullscreen, because I had hitten the console key...

I'll test it on my MacBook Pro when I get home from work and post my results tonight.

Stephan, can you send me your console.log?

Your previous comment may be a good lead : I' may need to force the game to run in 32bits...

You might want to take a look at the crash log for the app too. That will often contain the call stack and and other valuable information about the state of the program when it crashed. It's also possible to turn on core dumps, which you can then open in GDB and look at the entire state of the program at the moment it crashed.

The problem is that the machine is completly freezed. I'm not sure if I can't get any crash log after that as the users are forced to reboot...
