• Using Kinect crashes Garry's Mod
    5 replies, posted
Hello there I have a problem with Gmod if I try to use Kinect with it : if I enable the camera or try to control a ragdoll with my [I]Kinect for Xbox360 [/I] the game crashes. The minidump file says : [I]"The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access."[/I] Everything else seemed irrevelant in there, but I could upload the file somewhere if that helps. I have tried uninstalling every Kinect relevant thing (SDK, Runtime, drivers etc.) then rebooting and reinstalling the SDK and Runtime (I've tried 1.6 and 1.8 too) and after that plugging the Kinect in - Gmod crashed again. Right now that's all the information that came in my mind, but I can try to give more if you ask me. Can anyone help?
[QUOTE=ballads;50784481]running it as administrator?[/QUOTE] I have tried that too, but it doesn't work. Altought, this way I don't get dump files, instead I get a window notifying me of the crash Something like this: [IMG]https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Xl7k3VsCNHs/hqdefault.jpg[/IMG]
So there's no fix for this?
[B]UPDATE:[/B] I have found a weird way to make this work, even though it's merely a fix. So I was playing around and accidentally it just started to work! These are the steps I have done: - Spawn down a ragdoll (I've used Barney, not sure if others work) - Make it a statue - Copy it and paste it in the sky - Then spawn down a ragdoll again (only citizens worked for me) and try to controll it with kinect (c + right click on it and "Control With Motion Sensor) The problem with this is, that even though you can use Kinect with the ragdoll, it's really unstable. So you can't spawn down anything, can't choose an other tool and can't even go to the menu, because it will crash. I was trying for hours to find the exact steps to reproduce this, so I hope this can help to fix the crash
UPDATE: It looks like, Gmod didn't like my integrated videocard, because now with a videocard it seems to work. Prolblem solved!
