And the problem with svn builds is... they tend to be broken (as they are work in progress, after all). Of course this one tends to be stable. Well, a problem for today is: Assertion failed: Level->TIDHash[HashIndex] == this This happens mostly when I load a game while I'm already in-game (meaning fresh save, play for a while, try to load), but sometimes (rarely) happens simply in-game.

Hmmm, never got it.

For me it happens every time I load when the game is running. When I changed in source/p_entity.cpp in void VEntity::RemoveFromTIDList(): check(Level->TIDHash[HashIndex] == this); to if (Level->TIDHash[HashIndex] == this) that probably removed the assert, but it seems to be working. Then again it's not a fix, just a workaround. For future reference: I may miss the moment this will get fixed, cause, for the time being (meaning - until further notice), I'll be building vavoom with the change mentioned above.

Debian Sid, Vavoom 1.28 from source, Hexen 1.1 I confirm the problem. This starts to happen when I leave the level Caves of Circe (hub Shadow Woods). The game crashes every time I load game, except for the initial load right after being launched. The crash also happen after passing Hypostyle,every time I enter the teleport to the next hub. Initially, I though it's related to the other reported bug, but it's not. The modified workaround from mnk also works here, I simply commented out the line he changed, no crash since then. debug:

M.

Obviously, that code might need a way to check if both variables are initialized, since IMO that might be the problem.

This bug is also present in 1.29-1 binary, running on Fedora 10. Game crashes with Assertion failed: Level->TIDHash[HashIndex] == this in Hypostale map when I load a game or try to pass through the portal that opens after you kill the wyvern

Hopefully should be fixed.
