Ctrl+Alt+E Export Model Causing a crash

Catch22 shared this bug 4 years ago
Solved

I have Thrust Down mapped to my Ctrl key. On two occasions this weekend I have been flying a ship, thrusting down, while using Alt key to mouse look, and rolling to the right (Ctrl+Alt+E). This causes the game to try to export the ship I am flying while locking my last control inputs. After the model exports, the game returns to my crashed ship and then the game crashes to desktop. The CTD has happened both times with me and I've confirmed it's happened with another player on the same server.


I really wish I could un-map this key combination because I've never used this feature.

Good evening,

I suffer from the same issue, as I also prefer to have Ctrl for crouch. I would also like to request the ability to unmap or change this unused niche function. I've already crashed and lost two ships in a dogfight because of this. before 1.192, client would hang for about 30 and then unfreeze, however it hangs indefinitely as of 1.192.x, and i need to force-close client

Please please please - this one drives me slightly crazy.

Even if there were a keybinds.sbc or some other xml file to re/unmap keys, that would be spectacular.

Would solve this for me, as well as the original issue I came here to bump (can-no-longer-crouch-using-left-ctrl-v-193-022) and similar mapping issues (ctrl-z match velocity for example).

I can confirm that this is still a major issue in 1.192.022. client does not recover from freeze on its own. has to be alt-f4'd

I'd really love to see an option to disable this feature. Whenever I'm landing a large ship I need to use ctrl to descend and alt to look around me... all it takes is needing to roll slightly and BAM, I need to kill the SE process because it hangs for a full 5 minutes (and then leaves me with a popup message that I literally cannot close).

This button should not even be bound in normal gameplay. Why is it not possible to unbind such a niche use button??

Sadly still an issue. After 6 months it is still around. Really should be disabled or key-bind to be heavily changed

please get rid of this goddamned feature or give us an option to unbind that keybind. it caused my client to lock up again and cost me a ship!

Good afternoon Laura,

As of today, I was not able to replicate the crash in single-player or dedicated server 1.197.170. An on-screen error came up right away "Export to obj file failed.", but that is a vast improvement over a client lockup & crash.

Hello Dalten!

Thank you very much for letting me know. We have just had a report of the 'obj file failed' and wanted to make sure that your original issue had stopped. The error has been reproduced and is now awaiting a fix :)

Kind Regards

It is NOT fixed.

This is not fixed and it does still crash the game if the model being exported is complex enough so it shouldn't be closed. Add the option to rebind or disable this horrible command already. Everyone who uses ctrl for maneuvering downward will at some point activate this model export keybind by accident.

I've never personally experienced a crash from it, but as someone who binds crouch to ctrl, this feature and the inability to rebind it definitely still catches me from time to time. I've also never had the desire to intentionally export the model.

It depends on the complexity of the export but even if it doesn't result in a crash once it's activated it still freezes all other inputs until the export completes. Long enough to ensure a loss in pvp setting among other disasters. It should be moved to the esc menu or at the very least the K menu as a button and not a keybind.
