Description
ScummVM 1.1.0svn46243 (Dec 3 2009 07:58:05) Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 RGB zLib
Right after the lines "But there was also a magic wand" "It was evil and it was called Eveline" "because it is really boring to be a magic wand..." the game crashes with no console message, instead the platform gives a crash message (Grim Reaper).
Log from ScummVM and GrimReaper attached
AmigaOS4 gcc version 4.2.4 (adtools build 20090118)

I forgot to add that after the game crashed there seem to be still some background activity. Some sound bits are played without the game being seen on screen.
comment:2 by , 15 years ago
Little Update.
Music is crashing. The game itself runs along with sound effects until the player would take control. Then the game is stuck on the screen with Berta.
I'm using MIDI with a MT-32 device and upto the point where Eveline is introduced everything runs fine. Then the crash happens and MIDI is gone.
Hope this helps

thank you for the report.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to debug MIDI-related bugs, because I learned the very basics of MIDI-playback just when I was porting this game, and most of the code I just took from another engine. I'm not sure if the fact that you have a MT-32 device is relevant or whether one could reproduce it on another device. also, I only have access to Mac OS X and Linux.
to begin with: (1) does the game crash with music disabled? and with another device (if supported) (2) could you run it with -d9 --debugflags=sound ? maybe --debugflags=general,bytecode,logic,sound , and maybe even with ",animation", but that will make it much more verbose. just -d9 doesn't help at all, because our log messages are categorized
comment:5 by , 15 years ago
Sorry, i haven't thought of that myself
1) If music is set to <default> (which is AdLib i think) the games goes on without throwing errors. The same with setting the music to <off> 2) I have attached the verbose with -d9 --debugflags=general,bytecode,logic,sound,animation I hope you can read something out of it, i definitely cannot not :-) If you need a log with fewer arguments, just shout

let me record my observations a while ago. I couldn't read anything out of the attached log. the problem is probably architecture-related and I cannot reproduce it Mac OS X. it's probably needed to run the game in the debugger there to fix this problem.

I'm sorry, but I cannot fix it. I have no access to this architecture, and the error message doesn't even include a stack trace. from register dump and a few addresses I have no chance to figure anything out.

I'm really sorry too, but gdb is broken on my system, otherwise i could share more information.
Maybe someone can tell me how to run the game in debugger mode, if that helps?

Crash after some time in intro (exe not stripped)
comment:13 by , 15 years ago
I should really start thinking before i submit reports.
I have added two more crash logs. This time with the exe NOT stripped and it gives (hopefully) a better insight of the functions that crash, at least the stack trace is more readable (i hope)
comment:14 by , 15 years ago
The last crash logs look definitely much better. Hubert, can you please try changing engines/draci/music.cpp so the lines around 62 look like this? : warning("channelNumber = %d", channel); warning("volume = %d", _channelVolume[channel]); warning("channelPtr = %x", _channel[channel]); int newVolume = _channelVolume[channel] * _masterVolume / 255; warning("newVolume = %d", newVolume);
This should make it show a few warning lines before it crashes. Please paste them here.
My bet is the issue comes from line 127: _channel[channel] = (channel == 9) ? _driver->getPercussionChannel() : _driver->allocateChannel();
This may be an issue with the CAMD MIDI driver (definitely platform specific and just affecting AmigaOS), though I haven't looked at the channel allocation code yet.

I've just commited a fix for it in r48147. It was running out of channels since the MT32 just has 9 of them. At least it shouldn't be a showstopper anymore. In the end I could reproduce the crash by selecting a native MIDI driver (ALSA in my case) and checking the "True Roland MT-32" option, even if I didn't have mine connected, so it wasn't platform specific. I'm assigning it back to Robert in case he wants to do something with having less channels than expected (maybe freeing or remapping some of them?).
comment:19 by , 15 years ago
no, I don't wanna do anything specific. I don't do any tricks with MIDI music, but just play the stream I've read from disk. the player is completely generic and taken from other engines. if there are not enough channel available, then just ignoring some arbitrary subset of them seems the best solution (other than disabling the music completely), because I don't have any information on which of them are more important.
