game crashing almost in every match

[pcristian 0]

Hy, i neeed some help and i attached the python log, this never happened before and i`m using OMC modpack. I will be very grateful if someone tell me how to stop this freaking restarts of the game or crashing.

I dont see an attachment.  But if you would delete your log, then attempt to run the game, then create a "Spoiler" and paste your log there we can attempt to see what is going on.

here it is

python.log

Well, you didn't do as I asked.  Please *delete* your current log, then restart the game, attempt to play (if you can) then exit/abend/stop and attach the new clean log.  Also attach the xvm.log -- that might prove interesting.

 

I ask for a clean log as it helps isolate one instance of the game. 

 

I can tell you right now that on the 9.15 patch I had to: 1>Run a WOT cache cleaner and 2> Perform a clean install of WOT (a "clean" install isnt as it doesnt cleanup the cache).  Once I did this my repeated crashing/restarts stopped.   I am making an assumption that you haven't tried this  -- if you have then just ignore that previous sentence.

I did try with the clear cache and reinstall no success. Sry about last night i was so sleepy and here they are the python and the xvm log

python.log

xvm.log

lol, its all good -- note that at least I didn't flame you like some would.   

 

Ok, I see 2 things that make me wonder about the clean install.  First, I see what appears to be a mod that is loading out of the old 9.15 location -- or at least thats what the error is.

 

ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last):
ERROR:   File "source/XModLib/HookUtils.py", line 45, in __call__
ERROR:   File "AdvancedAimingSystem.py", line 790, in new_Account_onBecomePlayer

ERROR:   File "res_mods\0.9.15\scripts\client\gui\mods\mod_tidy_messenger.py", line 41, in getTypeName
ERROR: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'name'

 

Second, I see an XVM integrity check that is the result of an old XVM installation -- XVM checks its entire manifest to make sure that old stuff isnt hanging around.

 

2016-06-21 10:24:13: xvm_integrity results: incorrect!
hash mismatch in file: res_mods/mods/packages/xvm_main/python/stats.pyc
hash mismatch in file: res_mods/0.9.15.0.1/gui/scaleform/TeamBasesPanel.swf

 

I see ALOT of mods being loaded.  Given there appears to be an old 9.15 mod in the old path I would recommend another plain vanilla install by first completely deleting the WOT directory thendoing a new 'Net install.  Once you have that install -- dont do anything else BEFORE you copy that entire WOT directory to another location on your HDD so that you will always have a plain vanilla copy to refresh from (instead of having to do a complete re-install over the 'Net).  

 

Then, run WOT in plain vanilla mode and see if you get crashes.  Bet is you wont, so then run OMC and only pick the mods that you absolutely have to have.  For me its a gunsight, XVM config (although I now have my own that I built up), and a few other goodies.  Install ONE mod and run.  Repeat, adding each mod back in.  A pain?  Yes, but with as many mods as you have thats the price.

 

Hope this helps.

true, there are some mods that are "updated" to 9.15.0.1 or whatever they call it and i did had a crash without any mod. 

ERROR:   File "res_mods\0.9.15\scripts\client\gui\mods\mod_tidy_messenger.py", line 88, in ServiceChannelManager_pushClientMessage
ERROR:   File "res_mods\0.9.15\scripts\client\gui\mods\mod_tidy_messenger.py", line 41, in getTypeName\

these 2 errors if i`m right are form the sesion statistic mod  and there isn`t any other update to it :( as for the fresh install i can just delete the mods and there isn`t any other modification inside of this game except the res_mods ...

The reference to the old path tells me that python is pulling code from a real old path -- do you still have a res_mods\0.9.15 directory hanging around?  If so, get rid of it -- this error indicates that for some weird reason python is actually pulling a py file from the wrong location (these paths are not coded in the python code)

 

As for just deleting the res_mods content -- I've found this is not always the case.  I cannot tell you why, but in some cases there is a corruption in "res" that cannot be fixed.  After all, the files in res are only pcode files and can easily be modified and corrupted.  The only true proof is a real wipe and re-install.

 

If doing a true clean install (and I mean *true* -- not a deletion of res_mods) still does not work and still gets you crashes then you have to start looking at other things like graphics drives, etc.

oke, stay put because i just uninstalled the game again, used the ccleaner to get rid of the old registry and also deleted the files with wot cache; i`m almost done installing also i asked a friend to give me his res_mods just to be sure that i won`t use any installer modpack. 

Here are the new logs after the reinstall and 1 match

python.log

xvm.log

[kupjones 30]

So, that python log looks good (to a point) - the error there is a WG error that we all have.  So all I see being loaded is XVM -- but you didnt say above, Did you crash after that first game?  I'm guessing yes as I do not see a "INFO: PostProcessing.Phases.fini()" at the end of the what looks like your match, then an immediate start with new exe params "-clientGraphicsAPI d3d9 -wot_wait_for_mutex"

 

So, did it crash?

[pcristian 0]

yes, it crashed... just with xvm and without any other mods in

Edited June 21, 2016 by pcristian

[kupjones 30]

Well my friend -- last resort is to try running without XVM at all -- nothing, nada, plain vanilla.  Plain vanilla -- nothing in res_mods.  Empty except for the 0.9.15.0.1 subdir (WOT complains if that isnt there.) 

 

If it still crashes then the next place to go is looking at any system level changes - -most often it can be a graphics driver.  Or looking for things that changed since 9.15, assuming all was working under 9.15.  I had issues with my AMD graphics card and a beta driver that I was running when 9.15 came out -- it was due to the new graphics engine in 9.15.

 

Sorry, this is a slow slog.

i`m using gtx 970 and rolling true vanila i think i had just 1 crash and then nothing.. i did lower my cpu oc down from 4.3 at 4.1 ( 3570k ). the fun fact is that in other ( normal ) games like the division, black desert i had 0 problems... only in this stupid retarded game i`m having problems...

 

LE: yes in 9.14 i had 0 problems and nothing crashed.. then in 9.15 everything went south and fking up my minds...

Edited June 21, 2016 by pcristian

[kupjones 30]

Yeah, well, WOT was built with an old engine designed for the old PC days and 9.15 is the introduction of WOT's attempt to get relevant to today's standards.  It hasnt gone so well.

 

I'm about to install an ASUS GTX970 Strix  - I REALLY hope I dont run into your issues.

 

Reset WOT to use non-improved graphics and see if this works.  IF it does then you may have a graphics driver issue.  Crashes in plain vanilla mode really point to your rig -- which I know sounds silly, but WOT is silly when it comes to how it deals with hardware.

nice i have the same video card is the oc version? yes u are so damn right in the end ... i have a news... now i did put the old res_mods that i had before and ....guess what after 4 battles i had 0 crashes :))) Fingers crossed that the solution was.. lowering the oc or the fresh install or wtf :)))

[kupjones 30]

Yeah, I did the same -- I had saved my old res_mods then did a fresh install AND removed the beta driver.  Copied in my saved res_mods and .... no more crashes.

 

My guess is you had 2 issues, one related to the game install and one related to the OC. 

 

Don't ask why just be thankful it all worked and you are back to tanking!!

i`ll keep u in touch and i  will add u to my contacts, if i manage to understand this strange site :)) 

[kupjones 30]

LOL -- yeah, the site is a burden to deal with.  I hang out mostly at https://www.blackwot.com/-- we have quite a number of people who are willing to help others with game issues and mod problems.  Same user name, same avatar.  LOTS of EU and NA users.
