Can someone explain what these new icons means ?
The first one shows "Zzz" and I always see that on both machines in a LAN game.
The other one shows "2 + 2 = 5" and this one pops up every now and then. I know that is the usual lingo for does not compute, but what exactly is the problem ?
The game slows down massively when the second icon appears, and in the logs, there are lots of
entries.[checkDebugSync] Inconsistent sync debug at gameTime 203402. My version has 144 lines, CRC = 0x189F5D9A.
[gameTimeUpdate] Synch error, gameTimes were: { 203402, 203402, 203402, 203402, 203402, 203402, 203402, 203402}
[gameTimeUpdate] Synch error, CRCs were: {0xD4A23485, 0x189F5D9A, 0xD4A23485, 0xD4A23485, 0xD4A23485, 0xD4A23485, 0xD4A23485, 0xD4A23485}
What do these mean ? Since I was on a LAN, there shouldn't be any packet issues, so what is the problem ?
The game never recovers after getting the "2 + 2 = 5" icon, the logs just fill up with synch error messages. Is this by design or is this only for testing ?
If only for testing, then how can people help fix the problem ? I can't tell where the problem is at ?
The maximum length of a game is under one minute since it gets unplayable after the "2 + 2 = 5" issue.
Should tickets be made for this, or is this known ?
One machine was a 64bit Windows 7, and the other was a 32bit Windows Vista laptop.
