Gaulish Gaming Banquet: general

Before that, checking if this fails would settle it.

schmeling65

it is just stupid on how that can even happen

For anyone that wants to see for themselves: *rwaDSDMOCreate* is at `0x005F3BB0`, and at `0x005F3BED` is the *CoCreateInstance* call, that fails.

If anyone could give a try on Win11: in a hex editor, open the GameModule, go to hex address 0x1F1FA5, and change the bytes 83 CA 08 to 90 90 90 like this:

This avoids setting a bit in a variable that would call the bugged rwaDSDMOCreate function.

Do you know what this bit does?

adrientd

I don't know what it does exactly, but it prevents calling rwaDSDMOCreate, and I just checked that it also skips the code where it would crash (querying the reverb interface thing from nullptr).

adrientd

My guess is that it is to enable reverb, but I'm not entirely sure.

adrientd

Because I'm not sure if reverb is even used, and when tried the fix I barely notice a difference.

schmeling65

maybe romans flying away when they are dead

schmeling65

or even wind caves

adrientd

Honestly I don't even notice any reverb in the game. Except the Romaster of course, here it is very noticable :Obelul:

schmeling65

TRUE the greece temple the water room

schmeling65

explosions could be reverb

adrientd

Yeah maybe the explosions

adrientd

Unfortunately there is still this performance lag.

adrientd

That probably needs another fix.

schmeling65

performance lag?

hesopesomeso

This will prevent the crash :PogelixPog:

! (but no reverb)

schmeling65

Could you look for places where reverb is getting used, please. I could imagine: - dead romans - jumping into Water - collecting centurio helmet + 10x multiplyer - hitting metalcrates as asterix - collecting a laurel - stomp of a tower - explosions - attacks of pusher romans and jumpers - bouncing on turtles -usung a catapult
