[SA/Help] So, I'm planning a pig roast...

...and I keep getting the error: "0x00569642 ... Problem: Something related to a vehicle or object..."

I DID narrow it down to a single animated object (the pig), which is part of a larger room I'm working on: A hillbilly strip-club to replace the Lovin'-a-Loan in Angel Pine (coz who doesn't want a hillbilly strip-club, am I right??!!).

Anyhoo...

It's a single object (pig and skewers), with matching collision (made from same object), rotated by a single dummy. It loads by the standard method (IDE, IPL, Object.dat). It took me forever to get it working, cuz the only tutorials I could find are in Russian. So I wouldn't be at all surprised if I missed something, or did something wrong.. although, it works just fine... except for the error.

Strangely enough, the error only occurs AFTER I have exited the building, and after I have traveled some random distance (usually no more than 50m). If I never enter or leave the building, then the game will run forever (theoretically). Everything works OK if I disable the pig.

This happens even with no other mods loaded, so I'm sure it's not a conflict. My guess is that something isn't unloading properly, but I'll be damned if I know what. And the error doesn't tell me anything I don't already know.

Also, I found out during the debugging ritual that the arcade machines in "Proper Fixes" have their pre-lighting disabled. Deleting them from the gta3.img causes the game to crash, so I ended up having to replace them with the originals. That has nothing to do with this problem, I just thought you should know.

So, I finally narrowed it down to the object.dat entry. Don't know what was wrong with it; but since I only needed it to get the collision mesh rotating with the rest of the pig so I could cast light at it, which didn't look the way I wanted it to anyway, I decided I don't need it. So.. Problem solved? Until next time...

Thanks anyway! :)
