For some reason Radiant decides that it absolutely hates me and crashes seemingly random after around 5-10 mins of mapping. It just crashed seconds ago after selecting a few objects to copy. I have a fairly good PC so it shouldn't be because of memory or anything (as I have turned the memory counter on and at times of crashing it is only using a max of 25%).

This is (as you can imagine) EXTREMELY frustrating to work with!

When it crashes it gives me the following error:



I REALLY need to fix this so I can finish my map! Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

I have had this error while trying to patch my map, but that error appeared. I had to reinstall my mod tools to fix it. Just back up your mod folder, map_source, mapname.csv in zone_source, etc. It's the only fix I know of sadly.

All you should really need to reset mainly are a few files, like bin. Folders like raw dont really impact radiant so you dont need to reset most of that.

I hope so, just incase this happens again.

I remember I got this when I quit Radiant but not I'm running a new set of Mod Tools for a new map I'm working on it doesn't happen anymore.

Maybe try resetting Radiant's settings? Just run this reg file and it will delete the registry for Radiant, just note it will ask you for prj file and you'll loose custom color settings.

Ok UPDATE!

I've tried using that file from Scobalula and it didn't work.

I've replaced the bin folder with a new one and still, it does not work.

I have noticed however that the crashes usually occur when building, selecting or doing something like that, everything else seems to be ok (looking around in the 2D/3D view etc).

Any further suggestions on a fix?

i think ive gotten this error when ive added a model with too many vertices. Have you added any custom models recently?

happen to me and hex zombies when i used F for filters in leviathan, i think it was also after opening same mapfile with different settings and properties on 4 computers over and over again it kept crashing randomly at some point once a brush was cut many times and we never found a fix for it but i suggest pressing P and putting autosave to 1 minute that way anytime you have to restore its not like 30 mins worth of mapping disappeared only 60 seconds and usually you remember exactly what you did 60 seconds ago and can pick up the pace again...

I set it to autosave every 1 minute as soon as it started to avoid losing work.

The fact that it crashes literally every 2 minutes now makes working on my map near impossible which is why I've decided to do the annoying task of re-installing WaW + mod tools then copying my map files over.

If this doesn't work I may need further assistance but honestly, I hope for my monitor's sake that it does...

yeah it kills the mapping mood like nothing else, but leviathan was like 19000+ total brushes/patches when it started crashing so not like we could start it from scratch after 5 months of mapping haha if your not far into the map i reccomend building similar geometry since you know how its supposed to be but like under 5k otherwise its not worth it

Thanks for the help so far guys BUT I still need guidance!

I've noticed during compiling and radiant a specific group of errors flag up that I've never encountered before and I am wondering if these might be the reason radiant keeps crashing?



The material "lambart1" is present in raw/materials (although I have no clue what it is) and the "^1ERROR" I've never seen before and there is no techset with that name? Please help?

They are not the cause, everyone gets those types of 'errors'.

lambert1 is a default material from maya. you probably included it on accident on importing a custom model. if you did indeed use a lambert named lambert1 and converted in is assman, perhaps u just need to add it to your mod?

as for the techset could you have it included in an ignore.csv? i have a techset warning everytime i compile but everything runs fine (dont remember which techset tho)

Ok so after toying with files for a century for some reason it doesn't crash anymore.   

I believe that this could have been caused by the Mod Tools V1.1 launcher/patch by DidUknowiPwn as when I switched back to the original scripts, it started to work again.

For now I'm autosaving and manual saving constantly just in case.

Thanks for the help guys!
