CTD when rendering monkey model
« on: January 05, 2020, 01:53:35 AM »
Type: Crash to Desktop
When: Approaching where Flame Snakes reside in Har-Akir: Oasis
How: When approaching the flame snakes, everyone within distance crashes to desktop with .DMP files generated. Attempting to re-log results in the same CTD.
What:



Suggest other players don't venture to the Oasis presently.

I'll leave this note here since its related.

 I went to the flame snakes in the oasis a few days ago on Karaz Steel, alongside Nethal Kender. Our crashes didn't happen at exactly the same time (so I was able to deal with the snakes before I crashed) and I hadnt run as far north as he had, approaching the snakes from the south.

We were able to resume play just fine after coming back on, but there was also someone else who had died to the flame snakes nearby that reset. Didn't have an issue with dealing with the snakes in the cave afterwards.

Don't recall seeing any monkeys but maybe the lions killed them.

The monkeys are ambient NPCs; they only appear on top of the ridge, completely out of play. It'd be safe to just remove them from the world, or replace them, at least until they're fixed, whichever is simpler.
Insatisfait permanent, c'est ça l'apanage du champion.

I've found the cause and that will be resolved; however in the meantime I've added a hotfix to the main server, replacing the current monkey model with another one that doesn't crash. If you notice any other creatures causing crashes, make sure to report them.

This is now fixed.
