Title: FeralHeart.exe has stopped working.
Post by: Nauryx on March 04, 2017, 02:13:43 am: Well, I've seen this screen so many times now that I'm getting angry. I just would like to know how to stop it. I've tried running it as an administrator, I've tried looking for double particles. I can get to the screen, log in, then select my character. Then I get to that loading screen, before you spawn in.. and this happens > http://imgur.com/a/iGyg5

I don't know how to fix it, and an answer to tell me how to fix it would be nice. Please and thank you.

This is what causes most crashes.

I already said that I didn't have any duplicates, I can't get onto the grounds. Which means that I'm stuck in the Lonely Cave.

And it could simply be that your computer can't handle the lag caused by all the users. Try changing your rendering system, lowering your view distance, turning off water reflection, or all three

Did not work, my computer can usually handle all of this lag by the users. The crashes are the first time it's happened in a long time. My view distance is already 0, I only have 1 working rendering system, I turned off water reflection, yet I still cannot get into the grounds.

Is your internet fast and strong? Check to make sure it isn't going through a temporary derp as well

I have Legendary Items v4.3, and Legendary Markings v4.1 or whatever. My internet is super strong, not going through any derps.

Already done. If I were to turn the resolution lower, I wouldn't be able to see anything.

Post by: Vilivikhorith on March 04, 2017, 03:52:48 am: I have found that with some item packs, specific .meshes cause a crash and need to be replaced with some other .mesh that doesn't cause some odd random crash. Since it's The Grounds that causes you to crash, it's my best theory (since that's where all the people that wear all the items are!) for what is causing this crash.

To fix this, you will need to know what .mesh causes the crashing.
Your options are:
1. Go through the list of items and wear every single one until you crash and note what .mesh causes it;
2. Redirect stdout to a text file and examine it after a crash;

Personally I think 2. is faster (and more verbose), but a bit more complicated to pull off in Windows. You will need to start FH from cmd(dot)exe. So as follows: (ignoring the ' in commands, but do note ", also subsitute (dot) for a literal .)

1. Press windows + r for the run prompt, type in cmd(dot)exe
2. type in ' cd C:\FeralHeart ' or whatever the full path to your installation is.
3. Once cd'd (changedir'd) in (you can tell by the new path at the left of the prompt), type in ' FeralHeart.exe > "stdout.txt" 2>&1 '
that command will make a file in your FH directory with all the standard output so you can hopefully see why percisely you are crashing.

hopefully this is useful!
