OpenAL error: Invalid Name

[Jonathan Waller]

I was using the simulation out of sync test by enabling m_EnableOOSLog and m_EnableSerializationTest in Simulation2.cpp. I was using the combat demo map.

I got the following errors, the messages were shown repeatedly.

ERROR: OpenAL error: Invalid Name; called from HandleFade (line 209)

ERROR: OpenAL error: Invalid Name; called from IdleTask (line 60)

ERROR: OpenAL error: Invalid Name; called from Run (line 176)

Does this happen all the time? If you get it again can you check and see what the first error message said? If its an invalid source name the real problem happened the first time it was read in. Are there any other run time details?

When I run the game under these conditions I usually get a sync error that seems unrelated after a little bit. Is that normal behavior?

Replying to stwf:

Make sure you don't play against an AI, I think they will always cause the serialization test to fail.

THis problem should be fixed, as in only a single error message will be logged in the case of a failed initialization.
