Openrct2: Game Crashes when Connecting To Multiplayer Server Zod Realism

[WhenPenguinsAttack]

OS: Windows 7
Version: 0.0.5
Commit/Build: 22c0cc9

See title.

• [ ] Reproducible in RCT2 (vanilla)?
• [x] Multiplayer?

Steps to reproduce:

1.) Connect to said server.
2.) Game crashes.

Dump file
c1c94b5e-4f24-4625-9ce5-c39c93256459(22c0cc9).zip

Save game:

Also, it seems that this is because of objects the game attempts to load. I believe that said objects should be contained in the save file (since I have export custom DAT files on). The game also crashes everytime you attempt to start it afterwards as the game attempts to load those files. Deleting them solves the issue. Not sure if this is fixable on the devs end, or if the DAT files themselves are corrupt.

I'm experiencing the same issue under Arch Linux, see #3918.

@ptkato Please don't open duplicate issues.

I am experiencing the same problems as the OP

I have the same problem, exactly. Does anyone have a working solution, something that can at least get the game to start again?

[WhenPenguinsAttack]

The Zod server is still having issues.

Here's a dump file and save from another attempt to connect to it:

131e60d9-fc59-4ffa-bd20-ff3da27348df.zip

@Misterk267 Delete all the newest DAT files (find them by sorting by date and selecting the ones from the date you started having the issue) in the ObjData folder in your RCT2 game (NOT the OpenRCT2 game).

[ptkato]

Wiping the ObjData folder didn't work. "Reinstalled" RCT2 and didn't work also. Then I did fallback to the stable version, 0.0.4.

Then reinstalled the git version and now it works fine. But it's not a practical fix.

[WhenPenguinsAttack]

@ ptkato It might be that you have to delete this file, too:

%userprofile%documents\OpenRCT2\plugin.dat

[Misterk267]

I've tried deleting all the recent objdata entries and plugin.dat, no results. The only solution I've found is what ptkato said in his previous reply.

[ptkato]

I'm in Arch Linux, it's located at .config/OpenRCT2/plugin.dat. I've already fixed it, I'll try that next time it breaks.

@ptkato Came here from #3949. Confused by "re-installing the git version" so I tried re-installing from the website. Same crash happened. Could you clarify on what you meant by that?

[ptkato]

@End3rp, by git version, I meant the latest working build on git, got it from here.

But first, I uninstalled and then installed the stable version.

[jacksonconte]

@ptkato uninstalled and installed stable version. Still confused by that website you gave me. Am I supposed to click on the "upstream URL" or "download snapshot"?

[Ryder17z]

@End3rp none. it doesn't apply to your OS.

[jacksonconte]

@Patrik356b derp.

@ptkato ok, I fell back to the stable version (after uninstalling OpenRCT2), then updated to the latest dev build, then cleared the ObjData folder. Ran it in verbose, gave me a crap ton of text, and then it worked. Thanks!

[Nubbie]

@End3rp You didn't have to uninstall OpenRCT2 but I'm glad it worked out!
The newest updates that most people use are the latest dev version, often gets added more features etc with them, you don't need to run it in Verbose anymore if it's fixed as verbose is just used for de-bugging as it tells you everything it loads before starting :)
