b33 1 Report post Posted March 4 Hello everyone, i've been working trying to upgrade the CO Srcs from 2003 to 2022, i've completed server side which runs normally. I also did upgrade the client side aswell and the solution builds successfully in vs 2022 (release mode) the main issue is that the client-game doesn't start, somehow it closes silently after clicking startgame.bat (I'm using the files as is, haven't done any changes to client or files yet) (The game starts and runs normally if built in vs 2003 but fails to launch if its built in vs 2022, even tho the built is successfull without errors & warnings as i fixed them) Anyone have any suggestion, idea or maybe had the same issue before? who might want to help?

b33 1 Report post Posted March 5 Still trying to figure out why the game closes silently after trying to launch here's some more info about it: My built tool architecture is 32-bit (x86) and i already set it into the Solution project to make sure the Project targets 32-bit system dll's instead of 64-bit as i said the project builts successfully i tried checking through Event Viewer why the app is crashing: Log Name: Application Source: Application Error Date: 3/5/2025 2:04:56 PM Event ID: 1000 Task Category: Application Crashing Events Level: Error Keywords: User: Admin\adm Computer: Admin Description: Faulting application name: Game.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x67c8a014 Faulting module name: Game.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x67c8a014 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x00284089 Faulting process id: 0x6228 Faulting application start time: 0x1DB8E017B5B1461 Faulting application path: C:\Client\system\Game.exe Faulting module path: C:\Client\system\Game.exe Report Id: 021bda6a-2b82-4e56-ac2a-badb797e168d Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID: Event Xml: <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event"> <System> <Provider Name="Application Error" Guid="{a0e9b465-b939-57d7-b27d-95d8e925ff57}" /> <EventID>1000</EventID> <Version>0</Version> <Level>2</Level> <Task>100</Task> <Opcode>0</Opcode> <Keywords>0x8000000000000000</Keywords> <TimeCreated SystemTime="2025-03-05T19:04:56.5184846Z" /> <EventRecordID>12939</EventRecordID> <Correlation /> <Execution ProcessID="73692" ThreadID="7036" /> <Channel>Application</Channel> <Computer>Admin</Computer> <Security UserID="S-1-5-21-2946260892-83004847-1066848515-1001" /> </System> <EventData> <Data Name="AppName">Game.exe</Data> <Data Name="AppVersion">0.0.0.0</Data> <Data Name="AppTimeStamp">67c8a014</Data> <Data Name="ModuleName">Game.exe</Data> <Data Name="ModuleVersion">0.0.0.0</Data> <Data Name="ModuleTimeStamp">67c8a014</Data> <Data Name="ExceptionCode">c0000005</Data> <Data Name="FaultingOffset">00284089</Data> <Data Name="ProcessId">0x6228</Data> <Data Name="ProcessCreationTime">0x1db8e017b5b1461</Data> <Data Name="AppPath">C:\Client\system\Game.exe</Data> <Data Name="ModulePath">C:\Client\system\Game.exe</Data> <Data Name="IntegratorReportId">021bda6a-2b82-4e56-ac2a-badb797e168d</Data> <Data Name="PackageFullName"> </Data> <Data Name="PackageRelativeAppId"> </Data> </EventData> </Event> i also ran the client into Dependency Walker app to check if the game is missing any DLL's and somehow it says the game is using some x64-bit System DLL's while its supposed to use 32-bit, i already setup the project solution properties to aim for Machine x86 (32-bit), not sure why the game is using some x64 bit Might be the main reason why the game is failing to launch and its closing silently UP.. if anyone can give me any idea / suggestion please, looking forward to fix this.

mcjc 4 Report post Posted March 11 Sometimes it may be some code that may cause a conflict, it may not be visible but it causes a conflict, I don't know much about compilations, I'm learning a lot of things but I still haven't managed to fix the error of the tree looking crazy, I've been told that it's in the animation lab but I have no idea how to do it. I think it may be something in the codes because if the client doesn't start it may have a conflict, every time it starts it doesn't happen, open the task manager and see if something related to the open game appears. or do the following, compile the server side in 2003 and compile the client side in 2022 and then vice versa and see if it will start. server side 2003 client side 2022 server side 2022 client side 2003 it's possibly the client.
