Run-Time Check Failure #0 - The value of ESP was not properly saved across a function call. This is usually a result of calling a function declared with one calling convention with a function pointer declared with a different calling convention.

i don't know what it is or what it means. As far as i read about it it occurs in some cases hashmaps are used (which I don't) or dll's are loaded (which i don't do actively in runtime)

so yea, i dunno,... some time when i got a lot of patience i ll check some old SVN repo versions of my project and narrow down where this error first appeared so i can check for the changes and see what it could be.

but i dunno if it really is due to my repo versions or not due to some other stuff, arr, welll it doesnt matter so much for now but it's kinda troubling me because i dont feel like this error should exist.

It usually means that you did an unclean build.
Could be a plugin you need to build again, could be that you need to clean and build Ogre.

well it's supposed to be clean, i think to be sure about it really working i totally cleaned and rebuilt Ogre+plugins back when i compiled it...

also, how does it makes sense that this only happenss while re-entering the state but now when being in the state for hours? also sometimes when doing exactly the same (swapping back to gamestate) i get other errors in some ogre functions, without getting an ESP error... but probably you are right.

Some time i'll try to rebuild... i just dont like to do that because it takes a whole day to compile everything and relocate everything again - pain.

Hello,

I'm having a bit of issue with the example code (in the downloaded package). I'm running a Linux system, so I'm not using the MSVC project to compile it. I get it to compile without any notable errors, but when I run it, I get a strange error about mutexes before it aborts. I'm not too sure what I'm doing wrong here -- I'm just starting to pick apart OGRE's stuff, so any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.

Here's my compile output and the error message:

@Tenko: Honestly, I have no idea. Noone of those trying to run it on Linux have had this problem yet. Did you have a look at the "Notes" section of the article where some changes for Linux/Mac are listed. Perhaps they can help to resolve the issue.

@all: I know that there are still some problems with these extended state scenarios, and I definetly want them to be solved, but currently I don't feel like programming at home in the evenings when I come home. Since some weeks, I am again in a practical phase, so I am already sitting the whole day in front of a PC coding (not C++, but ABAP...). Somehow the motivation to code privately has currently shrunk to a minimum. But I'll be back, that' sure

. If someone should figure out these state problems, I'll happy to alter the framework and add a note to the article, I took the state framework from.

Tenko · Post by **Tenko** » Fri Nov 27, 2009 9:14 am

The main relevant part of the notes part of the article is just changing the name of the sleep function, if I'm understanding it correctly. I took a look at the XCode compilation for Mac too, but the stuff there seems pretty mac-specific for the most part (mainly with regards to bundle paths and things).

Is there anyone that has a working Makefile or SConstruct I can take a look at for this, to see if it's my compilation that's not setup correctly?

Hi,

I am currently getting these errors:

I've been trying for days and cant work out whats wrong.
Thanks guys.

You did not link to tinyXML. This tinyXML library however is a dependency of the DotSceneLoader. So you have to download, build and then link against it.

jargen · Post by **jargen** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 11:22 am

i have included tinyxml that i am sure of

Post by **spacegaier** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 11:36 am

But according to the error message, you did not link against it (Project settings > Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies).

jargen · Post by **jargen** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 11:38 am

heres what i have there:

C:\OgreSDK\lib\OgreMain.lib
C:\OgreSDK\lib\OIS.lib
C:\OgreSDK\lib\CEGUIBase.lib
C:\OgreSDK\lib\OgreGUIRenderer.lib
C:\OgreSDK\lib\tinyxml.lib

Post by **jacmoe** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 11:47 am

And for debug mode?
Those are libs for release mode. Could explain why you're getting the LNK4098 errors (defaultlib 'LIBCMTD' conflicts with use of other libs).

jargen · Post by **jargen** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 12:02 pm

ok ive got that sorted no building errors now, but when i run it i get this

Code: Select all

Post by **spacegaier** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 12:04 pm

What does the Ogre.log say? Did you run it ouf of VisualStudio or directly executed the .EXE?

jargen · Post by **jargen** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 12:12 pm

out of visual studio, but i cant find the log it isnt where it should be

Post by **spacegaier** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 12:15 pm

I guess you haven't set a working directory. Have a look at this thread: http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic. ... 26&start=0

Jargen it is saying that it cannot find the .layout file needed for the CEGUI. have you copied over the media folder for the Advanced GameFramework, or included it in the resources.cfg?

liquidgrimm · Post by **liquidgrimm** » Sat Dec 05, 2009 5:03 pm

I have a problem pausing. I can switch between the menu and the game but when I switch back to the menu the input still lies with the GameState. I've searched this topic but I cant find a solution for pausing (switching between states and input) Part of the problem seems to be in re-entering the State which tries to recreate some duplicate stuff.

Use case: Start app, Menu, Enter the game, Pause the game, Try to re-enter the game.
My current code pauses the GameState and sets a paused boolean in the framework. The MenuState checks this boolean to determnine wether to push the Gamestate or resume it. The menu pauses itself. But while in the menu the inputhandler seems that of the GameState.

What kind of flow do you guys use for switching between the States? Did you alter the AppStateManager in any way to solve this input problem?

// push a new state on the stack, calls enter()
this->pushAppState(findByName("GameState"));

// change to state on stack, calls enter()
this->changeAppState(findByName("GameState"));

// call method from existing state, doesnt call enter(), here is were the input gets garbled.
m_pParent->findByName("GameState")->resume();

A suggestion in this topic was made by moving some of the enter() code to the constructor(). Do you guys find this works?

I have some noob questions, I think, but they are essential for my project. I use the Advanced Ogre Framework and I think it is good enough to start with it (especially for me)

. I have the following questions:

1)The framework uses the dotSceneLoader, I think it would be good if it supported and other SceneManagers too, for example i use a heightmap for my exterior terrain and no the dotScene format for now. How can I easilly integrate this feature?

2)About the AppStates, the most basic thing is to keep track of all your entities and stuff in your game so when you go from PauseState to GameState the game will not start from the beginning but where you left it. I think an implementation of this in the Framework would be great, but until then any idea on how to do this?

I never had problems with input and as far as i understood how this system works it shouldn't ever be a problem.
I'll keep in mind what you said and when I notice something I'll check back and reply, so far i didnt have any problems, tho.

In GameState.enter() there should be a line like this:

m_pSceneMgr = OgreFramework::getSingletonPtr()->m_pRoot->createSceneManager(ST_GENERIC, "GameSceneMgr");

Just search for "createSceneManager".

If you want another SceneManager this should be the point where you can change it - ST_GENERIC for example is the standard SceneManager.

I hope this is what you wanted to know. However although i dont know how to load heightmaps, I don't work with them so you need to check that on your own.

Add a function like GameState::onGuiPause(const CEGUI::EventArgs &args)
which switches the States so the GameState won't be updated anymore (but nothing else should happen to it) and in the PauseState you add the opposite function which switches back to the game and resumes updating.

teocharos · Post by **teocharos** » Mon Dec 28, 2009 9:22 am

Now I have this question,

On exit() there is this code:

Code: Select all

if(m_pSceneMgr)
		OgreFramework::getSingletonPtr()->m_pRoot->destroySceneManager(m_pSceneMgr);

And on enter():

Code: Select all

m_pSceneMgr = OgreFramework::getSingletonPtr()->m_pRoot->createSceneManager(ST_GENERIC, "GameSceneMgr");

So every time the state changes the SceneManager is destroyed and created.
Is it possible to have two scene managers at the same time? (I think this question is very stupid)
And this one:

Code: Select all

bool GameState::pause()
{
	OgreFramework::getSingletonPtr()->m_pLog->logMessage("Pausing GameState...");

	OgreFramework::getSingletonPtr()->m_pGUISystem->setGUISheet(0);
	OgreFramework::getSingletonPtr()->m_pGUIRenderer->setTargetSceneManager(0);

	return true;
}

That way I think the update method won't be paused. How should I do the pause and where to put the method so it will work?
The update method will be something like this:

Code: Select all

void GameState::update(double timeSinceLastFrame){}

In that method I must check if the state is paused or not, the whole method in an if block?
I just want to play a little with the framework so I can use it later on a project(for now I have it exactly as it is). Please help I am so stuck with it.

Hello

Firstly, I want to thank you for your work, your framework is a great tool to start.

I have some questions about it :

- I created my own state, copying another application using "ExampleApplication" with the "ExampleFrameListener". The problem is that I have a drop of framerate, from early 300 to 70 in release mode. I have only 3 states, the Menu, the Demo and my own, 4 entities in the scene. Do you have any idea about this ?

- I also wonder to know why I have to divide the "timeSinceLastFrame" by 1000 in the "addTime" of an animationState ? If I don't do that the animation are too fast.

I think it's all and I hope someone can answer me.

Thank you

First of all, sorry for not having showed up in thsi thread for quite some time.

Concerning the two latest questions:

1. Wait, wait, wait...that' way too fast for me. What excactly did you do? You inherited a new state from the class AppState and the ExampleApplication? Or did you only use the AppState concept in another application which is basing on the ExampleApplication?

2. timeSinceLastFrame stores the time passed since the last frame was drawn in milliseconds. But as far as I remember, the addTime() method of an AnimationState requires a value in seconds, therefore you have to divide by thousand.
