Counter-Strike: Source - crashing after Created 12 years ago2012-07-09 12:48:43 UTC by DonPiano

Lately i notice after building cubemaps, that css crashes. is this happening to anyone else.

maybe the crashing is me impatiently clicking the enter button as the game freezes a little bit when you reload the map after buildcubemaps?

Did you try not impatiently clicking the enter button before making this thread? :s

I asked if this is happening to anyone; this seems like a pretty simple/straightforward question to me.

By "impatiently clicking" btw, i meant like 2-3 times to skip past the team and skin selection screens

Did you try not impatiently clicking the enter button before making this thread? :s

This.
If you have the vaguest of an idea as to what could cause your problem, troubleshoot it. The best outcome is you figure it out and you don't have to ask the question, and the worst is that you ask the question then immediately find out it was what you thought it was all along.

The reason why i'm asking this is to see if it's a known issue and not just a problem with my setup, why is this such a difficult concept to understand?

I've mapped source for the last 2 years and never noticed the problem before. i'm guessing it has something to do with and update, or maybe the sourceMP engine(which HAS caused other problems). Seriously wtf..

There's no need to be defensive.

We're simply raising the point that if you think it might be something -"maybe the crashing is me impatiently clicking the enter button"- check before making the thread so that you're not accidentally wasting everybody's time.

Also why the two accounts?

i was waiting for someone to notice, you caught me. Everyone else has multiple accounts i thought i would join the club

you know what, i won't even bother asking source-based quesitons on here anymore, since they are rarely answered. Besides on Steam Forums you get immediate replies with no snide/irrelevant comments. (i think users are more polite there becasue it's valve, could be?)

Anyhoo, Thanks

Who has multiple accounts? :/ It's a bannable offence, actually.

Users who have created an alternate account risk having both accounts suspended.

- Forum guidelines.

Further, there were no snide or irrelevant comments here. I'm really surprised you've taken such an odd turn at this. You posted with a potential solution to your own problem and then got annoyed when people waited to see if that was the solution before helping the troubleshoot?

Oh no! don't ban me!

seriously archie, shall i list everyone here who has multipe accounts? I seem to recall you having a "shadow" account in the past? i mean, Really?

I created around 5 for a forum game with Penguinboy's permission so they could be deleted if necessary.

Seriously though, what's crawled up your butt? You've always been such a positive member, why the TWHL negativity?

Any information on the crash? I've never had it happen to me.

I'm not being negative towards twhl. what's fair is fair, source questions dont' get answered here very often, it's not negativity it's a fact.

I have no negative feelings towards twhl, just unhelpful responses. I'm sorry that i don't agree with you.

Damn, Terror. I'm not trying to be a dick, but just take a breather man.

[And what was most likely an edit block. Oops.]

@grim: nope, I just get that "HL2.exe has encountered an error, and needs to shut down" thingie.

I never had this happen until the past couple weeks, so when i'm loading a map now i'm very careful not to touch the keyboard while the map is reloading.. just kinda a weird thing...

collapse: NO YOU

Yes, this is happening to me also. I thought it was my driver cause it's causing me grief and I'm too lazy to update it.

Basically if I compile and tell it to launch game automatically it'll crash if I buildcubemaps but it still works, I have to just reload, really annoying but I get by.

Ha yes, now that you mention it I DO remember steam reminding me to upgrade my nvidia drivers, and i remember not doing it, cuz i wanted to image my Cdrive first, in-case that update broke anything(i have a laptop so updates can be dodgy sometimes).

I bet that will fix it, thanks Habboi! =)
