[Alephmodular-devel] Crashed it, underwater.

[Matt L. <ze...@ze...>]

I decided to try the level on Normal instead of Total Carnage, and 
this time I managed to crash it.

I was doing my thing and I got into the area in which you jump into 
the big pool of water to hit the elevator and go back up into the 
first area. I jumped in the water and floated at the top for a 
second, since I had my run key held down. I released it and sunk to 
the bottom.

As I got up to the elevator and started thinking about how to push 
the buttons (I really suck without the mouse), I realized the mouse 
cursor had just become visible. Then AM unexpectedly quit.

Here's the relevant excerpt from the crash log. Let me know if you 
need more info. (again, I'm on 10.2.2 with the carbon sound manager 
update)

I don't think I've applied the Sound Manager update. But seeing as I  
found a bug like that in sound_add_ambient_sources_proc earlier today,  
it's probably the same glitch we saw. I think turning off ambient  
sounds will work around it. But the code within CVS should be fixed.

Another part that I only just uploaded a fix to is external physics  
files. They weren't being read in properly before.

You'd need to compile from a CVS update of the sources to see the fixes.
