HL2DM - r_DrawTranslucentRenderables causes crash

ChadReitsma · 08-12-2012, 11:58 AM

Hey all,
I discovered that the crappy video card I have in my laptop was causing my HL2DM mod to crash (no errors) just locking up.

After installing VC++ and moving my source over so I could debug I discovered that it was crashing inside of viewrender.cpp.

changing r_DrawTranslucentRenderables to 0 fixed it!!

Okay? I'm not sure what you're saying here.

Just warning us about it

Hey guys,
Yep just a warning - if anyone out there has a "business" laptop that they're using for testing - mine actually isn't really that bad, it's Core2Duo with 4gb Ram, but the Video card is just a base Intel piece of junk, you know... it's not a gaming laptop, lol.

I guess if you're actually using your laptop for coding then you'd already be debugging, but in my case I just wanted to test my mod of a different computer and was baffled by the crash! hahaha.

Lata,
C.
