Building 64-bit DX11

MinpinStudios

Hi everyone!

I can´t build a 64-bit DX11 version of my game, it crashes when i exit the game. 32-bit works fine and both 32 and 64-bit works fine in DX9.

Do any of you guys have the same problem?

Try checking the contents of your log files - they may shed some light.

UndyingSpite

Got the same problem

ChrisIceBox

@UndyingSpite: At which point, exactly, does the game crash?  And any luck with the log files?

UndyingSpite

Have to check later fo the log - it chrashes by exiting the game, every time. It runs normal, i open the menu and choose "Exit" (Default menu) - then it chrashes.

@UndyingSprite it´s exactly the same problems as I have, all my log files say are that there is some problems with the order of weapons in UFPS but I hardly think that is the problem.

UndyingSpite

I don't use UFPS

Just tested here - no problems with 64-bit DX11

The script command used by AC is just the standard "Application.Quit ();" function - if there's a problem when calling this function, I'm inclined to believe this is an issue with Unity, rather than AC.

MinpinStudios

@Snebjorn can you send me a simple project with just a menu or something that I can build to see if I have the same problem with a project that we know works?

Snebjorn

Sure - just one question: have you checked if you have the same problem in a non-AC project?

EDIT: Just realised that Chris might not be too keen on us sending AC code to "strangers" we just met on the internet ...  :-)

MinpinStudios

@snebjorn I don´t really know how to try it without AC since I don´t know how to make a working "quit-button" without AC.

Snebjorn

1: Create a new empty project (no AC, just plain vanilla Unity)

2: Create an empty GameObject in the default scene

3: Add a new script called TestGui to the empty GameObject:

using UnityEngine;

using System.Collections;

#if UNITY_EDITOR

using UnityEditor;

#endif

public class TestGui : MonoBehaviour {

void OnGUI() {

if (GUI.Button(new Rect(10, 10, 60, 30), "Quit")) {

#if UNITY_EDITOR

EditorApplication.isPlaying = false;

#endif

Application.Quit();

}

}

}

Thank you, @Snebjorn, you'd be right.  Thing is, the code you posted is
exactly the same as AC uses (including the editor check) - does that
work for you?

See if you can find a file called "output_log.txt" in your built game's data folder.

Snebjorn

Didn't copy that code snippet from AC - honest! - but it does look quite similar ... :-)

ChrisIceBox

It wasn't an accusation

MinpinStudios

The code from @Snebjorn works just fine, 64-bit DX11 build quits without any problems.

Snebjorn

Same problem with the AC demo in a clean project?

ChrisIceBox

I suspect that the issue lies within AC's data somewhere - the exact code to quit is likely a red herring.  Please look for that logfile I mentioned.
