Hi.

I am having a crash when using DirectX on the game "Family Ski & Snowboard" AKA "We Ski & Snowboard".

"DX11::TextureCache::CreateTexture failed in TextureCache.cpp at line 106" followed by a crash to desktop. The game works just fine in OpenGL and seems to be the same issue as here:
https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/is...il?id=7583

The developers asked for a fifolog to help diagnose the issue, but the OP hasn't provided one yet. I'd like to have a go, but don't know the best settings for the fifoplayer to record with. How many frames, which graphical settings should be enabled, disabled, etc.

Can anyone help?

Record the fifolog on OpenGL where it would crash. Then, when we play it back in D3D it should crash. If it does, it would be immensely helpful.

Narrow it down to 3 - 5 frames via to fifoplayer if possible, and save that.

How can I get the fifo log down to 1 frame, or at least a manageable size? The crash can occur instantly or after a few seconds, so I set the fifo player to record for 1000 frames. That came out as almost a gigabyte, which is obviously too large and Dolphin crashes when I try to load it.

Edit:
I got it down to 120 frames @~130mb. It captures the crash about halfway through though, so can I shrink it further? Can I use fifoplayer to record a fifoplayer playback?

Edit2:
They actually compress very well, so I've 7zipped it and will upload it here.

If it's shrunk down enough that we can download it, and it plays correctly, then 120 frames isn't too much.

Wow, you can't fault the devs for not being on the ball. It took less than 24 hours to fix! Thanks everyone!

Referring to the Pull Request? I don't see the fix merged into Master.

Ah, sorry; I sometimes don't pay attention to where I posted stuff and get mixed up on issues. Either wya, that's what I expected to fix it, so, everything is good. Fiora to the rescue again.
