Common Crash and Waypoint Flaw Options

[RoboCop]

Well just to avoid confusion I've compiled two versions of RCBot1: first is the main version that supports DMC, HLDM, TFC, RC etc, while the second version is only supported for Sven Co-op v5.

As some of you know already that the src code I've salvaged that was built for Sven 4.5 many years ago, and I've managed to add the important new SC 5 weapon entities and all of that - despite that they cannot shoot nor attack.

I've been making about a dozen waypoints for DMC and I've noticed some crashes linked to the Segmentation Fault from 'WaypointFindPath(path**, int*, int, int)'. This crash also appears to occur for the RCBot Sven side as well. I don't know if my waypoints needs compatibility fixes as well for this latest version of the RCBot build, but here is the crash GDB backtraces I've got:-

A bit more specific, it's an Athlon64 3200+ with 32 bit WinXP SP3 Home Edition

I guess I wasn't clear with my question? I wasn't asking for a 64bit version, 32bit is good. When i tried your (windows) dll's many months ago, they were crashing on my client/listenserver (Athlon64). Because of something I had read back then I thought the builds might be incompatible with the Athlon64, causing the crash?

From what I've read today, it seems i686 code should be compatible with the A64 CPU, i686 is 32bit. Unless it has something to do with the compiler settings you used, I can't see the A64 CPU causing the crash. Do you agree?

It may be crashing for some other reason, such as metamod i'm using? Have the builds been checked on a listenserver (I'm refering to the windows builds only in this conversation, forget Linux for now).

So what I tried today was a hpb_bot.dll I downloaded a few days ago from github, which has since then been removed? :
https://github.com/APGRoboCop/rcbot1

I checked it with mm-p27 mm-p37 (solokillers 1-21-16) and it crashed Svencoop shortly after entering the map crystal, before adding bots. I was able to open the console which pauses the game & delays the crash until shortly after closing the console. Rcbot did attach and even can load a waypoint, write or read a wpt visibility file (Although it is the older pre-RCbot4.8 rcv files). I probably should use a newer MM, and will try that soon, but i doubt it caused this hard crash?

I also tried the MM build from here, same crash:
https://apg-clan.org/vbdownloads.php?do=dow...downloadid=1150

That package hasn't changed and is the same one I tried last year.

I didn't try the native mode rcbot.dll as I had tested that last year with same results.

[Edit]
I'll wait for your debug build. Thanks for your work....
