Closed [Bug Report] Access Violation on Win XP.

For a limited definition of "worked"

It's still pretty unstable, but that doesn't seem to be affected by cores being on or off once you're into the game properly. The open GL version (safemode) seems to work smoothly (decent FPS and all that) when it runs. There's a knack, because Starbound opens up the processes a couple of times, you need to be on top of that process list until you've got past the title screen.

It was nice to get 10-15 minutes in of poking about though.

 

I'm afraid that this workaround's no good for me. Still getting the access violations & lockup either on the Chucklefish logo or the loading screen immediately thereafter.

 

While this workaround works, it's really hard to set up booth affinity and prioity, as the game loads rather fast. Is there a way to make a process run in higher prioryty setting as it starts?

it only worked for me when I set the CPU affinity to CPU 1

 

Yeah i have the same problem. The workaround doesnt seem to be helping me any

 

Ok didnt work for me could only do a char and then game crash

 

It keeps saying that I am unable to set affinity because I don't have authorization. or Access is denied when i try to set affinity. Help??

 

Could i get any help with this?

Have you EVER changed ANY of the files in your Starbound directory? If so, Uninstall it, delete the entire Starbound dir, then reinstall.

If you haven't, there should be a starbound.exe-related event in Event Viewer / Application.

 

What do you mean by the second part?
and how do i know if I have deleted everything?
I modified after the first release.. whenever someone had a fix with the .dll file...

 

Open Event Viewer (in Control Panel > Administrator Tools) , look in the Application section. There should be an event there when Starbound crashes. Copy that event data, stick it on Pastebin.

 

there are alot of them.. which one do i choose?

 

I was focused on the other questions and missed this part.

Delete the SDL.DLL in your Starbound directory and then do a Verify, Steam should download a new copy of it. Try Starbound then.

 

Im doing a full re-install.. i appreciate your help.. It will be downloaded in the morning .. 1-2hours.. my internet sucks..

 

I did a full re-install and still nothing.. I cant even find an event in event viewer...

 

When you uninstalled it, did you go manually delete the directory?

If you didn't, go find the SDL.DLL and delete it, then Verify in Steam.


If you did, post your starbound.log on pastebin and link to it.

 

Where can i find the starbound.log?
