Recommended Posts

TITLEPIC.PNG

 

The sequel to Rowdy Rudy’s Revenge, Powertrip, starts off with Rudy embarking on a new mission. Three suited men confront Rudy to hire him to take control of experiments that have gone wrong. Experimental super soldiers have been going insane and freeing up aliens that have been locked away in the hidden mountain bases. Rudy is the only man with the balls and the skills to clean up this mess. Prepare for the POWERTRIP!! 

 

If you haven’t played Rudy’s revenge, get ready for some tough fights! While being vanilla compatible, Powertrip does feature a slew of new monsters and deadly weapon upgrades! Feel free to check the original forum post to see all of the details of this partial conversion!

Sorry guys, change of plans. We will have to play this wad another time, due to technical issues. We have switched the server to the Talosian Incident instead.

 That “malloc” bug is so bizarre, especially since it only occurred in Zandronum and not vanilla or ZD.. I’ll have to follow up on that.

Probably a skin file causing a conflict or something. I was doing some testing the other day and initially thought it was coopmthru_vanilla_v3.pk3, but I took that out and still ran into a memory allocation issue when having more than one person on the server, especially in map03:
-----------
zandronum-server: malloc.c:2401: sysmalloc: Assertion `(old_top == initial_top (av) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= MINSIZE && prev_inuse (old_top) && ((unsigned long) old_end & (pagesize - 1)) == 0)' failed.
-----------

I will run some more tests in the upcoming weeks, as we are on ZDaemon, and see if I can figure out specifically what is causing it.


Initially I ran through some of rudy2 with it on a personal server on my windows PC, with the same wads, and I made it through the first 4 levels fine and tested maps 21 and 22, so I figured it would be good to go. Our server is on a linux box though, so that is another variable I need to consider I suppose.

All in all, if we get it figured out, I would love to run through this properly.. it is super fun imo :)
