Crash with Saitek Pro Flight Yoke System - biziclop - 09-28-2014
Hi,
I've been playing VDrift with a set of Saitek Pro Flight Yoke & Rudder Pedals (which is a strange experience but great fun). I played with the 2012-07-22 release on Windows 7 and everything worked fine.
Now I downloaded the 2014-09-26 version and I can't set all the axes correctly, and as soon as I flick a button on the yoke, the application crashes straight away.
(I don't know what else to report because I'm not familiar with the inner workings of the app, but I am a software developer so feel free to ask complicated things from me.
)

There is a LOG file in C:\Users\"Your USer"\AppData\Roaming\VDrift
see why it crashes.cheers

Upload your vdrift.config and controls.config and log.txt as mentioned by slickx.
If you could build vdrift and get a backtrace, that would be awesome of course.

I started out cleanly with no main config, no controls config. And straight away in the main menu if I press any button on the joystick, it crashes. (It also crashes if I do it on the controls setup screen, during a race, every single time, but this is the simplest scenario.)
I'll try to do a build too but it'll take some time, my area is Java and I've never coded or built in C on Windows, only on *nix systems.

I've managed to further narrow down the source of the problem to the fact that I've got two joysticks (the yoke and the pedals).
If I remove the pedals, everything works fine.
I also checked the exception code, and it's access violation. Maybe event.jbutton.which returns a number that is different from 0 or 1? I noticed that in eventsystem::Init() the joystick vector is simply built in the order the controllers are enumerated but doesn't check SDL_Joystick.instance_id. But in eventsystem:
rocessEvents() it uses the value of event.jbutton.which as an index into the joystick vector.It could be a complete red herring though.

The instance id is not equal to the device id. From testing here they turned out in reverse order for me, first device instance_id being 1 and second 0.

I am wondering why it worked before? Anyway, I'll push a fix, just need to do some more testing.

Maybe the previous version of SDL returned them in a different order, that's all I can think of.

I've uploaded a new exe here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdrift/files/vdrift/nightly%20builds/vdrift-win32-2014-09-30-exe.7z/download

Really interesting stuff.
