Recursive Error Z_Malloc
« on: October 26, 2009, 07:22:33 am »
I've recently been receiving an error when trying to /devmap anything (including stock maps). I can join other servers fine though.
This pops up after TremFusion 0.99r2 R1368 crashes:

Here's the truncated console log that TremFusion spits out.

Does it happen with other clients?
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

TJW - crashes without warning.
Stock 1.1.0 - works fine.

It looks like it's loading the stock qvm's, which are incompatible with anything new.
TF should have a game.qvm to go with the server.

Tried swapping out game.qvm, ui.qvm (from base\vm, vms-1.1.0.pk3, and %appdata%\Tremulous\base) while also swapping tremulous.exe (TF/TJW/stock).
Everything but the stock client causes Trem to crash with the same effects as before.
Updating to TF 0.99r3 doesn't do anything either.
