Z_Free(): Corrupt zone header!

Deleted member 449 · Nov 6, 2015

I recently switched from Movie Battles II V1.3.1 (non-launcher, 9-17-2015, moddb) to the fixed launcher shortly after the fixed launcher was released. For the past week I've been trying to get MBII to work with the launcher but with no solution. My problem is whenever I launch MBII with the launcher, I keep getting a "Z_Free(): Corrupt zone header!" error from the console. I am using the Steam version of JKA and I have Steam Connection checked. I did not mess around with the launch properties on Steam for JKA. I have no idea what is causing this issue nor how to fix it. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Could you show the whole fatal error log?

Make sure you have removed extra command line entries in steam.

Z_Free(): Corrupt zone header!

LoU: Sorry, but I'm not really sure how to pull or do something like that...

ent · Nov 7, 2015

It's execing jaconfig.cfg.
Seems like you are launching single player (jasp.exe)

.
It supposed to be jamp.exe. (execing jampconfig.cfg).
How exactly do you launch the game?

Deleted member 449 · Nov 8, 2015

I use the launcher like I indicated earlier. I checked Steam connection too. I'm also bewildered as to why it launches the SP console..

Spaghetti · Nov 8, 2015

Try running a game integrity check from within the Steam options for JKA.

Deleted member 449 · Nov 8, 2015

The game appears to be running fine on MBII client, but I want to play with JAMP. I tried the verifying game integrity, no luck so far.

Spaghetti · Nov 8, 2015

Okay, then we go with the nuclear option.

Restart your computer.
Run reset_mbii_launcher.bat (located in GameData). This will wipe launcher settings.
Run the launcher again, click install and it should verify files (no new PK3s will download).

Those steps should be as close as you can get to a pristine install state. See if it works then.

Deleted member 449 · Nov 8, 2015

Damn, nothing seems to be working. Thanks for the assist, but it doesn't seem to be working...

ent · Nov 8, 2015

Seems like there is an image in MBII that has too big size when it is trying to allocate less size so it fails.
Try to set higher texture compression (texture quality medium or low).

LoU · Nov 8, 2015

Go to steam settings, and remove extra command line, it seems there is extra "+set fs_game" in there. That's why steam integration won't work.

Deleted member 449 · Nov 8, 2015

Ent: I can't even get that far, given how JAMP refuses to start up for MBII.

LoU: Nope, nothing in the launch options concerning "+set fs_game". I got rid of that prior to re downloading the launcher.

Cat Lady · Nov 8, 2015

Out of curiosity, why you want to use jamp.exe instead of openjk (mbii,exe)?

Deleted member 449 · Nov 9, 2015

I want to use jamp.exe instead of mbii.exe for two reasons. One is that I've been receiving several annoying errors with the MBII Client as of now. It either happens while joining a server, starting up the game, or switching maps (some sort VM_CreateLegacy fail or something). But it isn't that common to trouble me. The number one reason why I want to use jamp.exe rather than mbii.exe is that there is a visual difference between the two. On mbii.exe I receive graphical lag in some unexpected places where in jamp.exe I never received. Also, jamp.exe seems more sharper than mbii.exe. Despite both being on max settings with 1080p, the fuzziness of mbii.exe just sets me off in a way I can't explain. It troubles me ingame.

LoU · Nov 9, 2015

Please make a printscreen of settings window of launcher.

Deleted member 449 · Nov 9, 2015

Got it.
Please note that it's set to MBII Client just so I can play to some degree.

Please update screenshot. Add as attachment or something, i can't see it (error on dropbox)

Bazinga · Jan 10, 2016

I have the exact same problem with my Movie Battles II.

I deleted my Jedi Academy folder and reinstalled Jedi Academy (Steam Version).
I then launched Jedi Academy in both single and multiplayer, game was fine.
Then I downloaded the Movie Battles II Launcher and ran that, when I try to launch the game I get the same error.
My game is also launching the single player console, I cannot see why.

Link to settings screenshot.
Link to console output.

LoU · Jan 10, 2016

Make sure in steam settings you don't have any extra command line params.
